I've seen his respect thread and followed Marvel's cosmics for almost two decades. He's no more powerful than half a dozen others in this fight. He's in the same neighborhood, which is why he belongs with the other planet busters. But not above them.Thor dented Galactus and rendered Ego catatonic for a time. Big whup. Surfer has the Crunch feat. Alan took on the entire JLA/JSA and only lost because he contained his power and stopped fighting. Strange and Fate have countered abstracts numerous times. Majestic rearranged a solar system. Thor did what he did to Mercy (numerous insane feats), an abstract. Quasar is not the only one with good feats.
Also, post the whole fight. There's literally no context in that scan. I'm also completely sure Warlock has knocked Quasar unconscious more than once. On the off chance that you found a feat to the contrary (still to be determined, but possible) then they've split their encounters.
I haven't read my Quasars for a while but I think they only ever had that one real fight. In the Infinity War fight, Quasar really did have Warlock on the ropes by absorbing his energy, shown in that scan. Warlock warned him that he was getting too weak to contain the power of the soul gem. Quasar didn't know what the gem was, and the sudden point-blank gem discharge blasted him away when he was about to grab it. Although Quasar said it packed a wallop, he was flying back into the battle. But then Quasar was distracted by the Contemplator suddenly appearing in a telepathic form inside his head, and Warlock punched him out.
The only other time they "fought" was when Warlock pulled him into the soul gem plane and gave him a series of test questions to determine if he was a worthy successor to Captain Marvel, which Quasar passed.

I don't know about Quasar. If people really believe that Superman and Gladiator are physically just as strong as each other (which is an outright lie...Gladiator is stronger) then he might not match up with DC heavy weights like people here think that he could. Gladiator was too powerful for Quasar and would have lost easily if Black Bolt didn't intervene.
Rom Spaceknight was duking it out pretty well HTH with Gladiator and easily took his eyeblasts to the face with no effect. Not sure where Rom is placed physically.
Glads is certainly up there with Superman but is he really stronger, given Supe's ridiculous feats?

Arr you talking about this fight because Rom was getting manhandled?

He was doing OK there. He stood up to sustained eyebeams at close range, he stood up to a blow that Gladiator thought would deck him. Rom was blinded by Manta when he got hit across the room. And he was still fine from that and came back to trade blows HTH. Then the fight got stopped. Rom was fine.

Not trying to compare internet cock sizes with the reading resume. Just letting you know I'm not ignorant of Quasar's feats, and I've seen nothing to put him beyond Gladiator, Surfer, Thor, BRB, etc. Carver's scans actually bolster my point somewhat, although his goal in posting the Gladiator/Quasar fight was quite different than my own.
But, as mentioned, his best feats that you listed are not beyond the best feats of others in the fight.
He's been knocked out with karmic blasts against Adam though. The scans should still be in Warlock's respect thread. And honestly, Quasar's best feats are better than Adam's. I'm not arguing in terms of overall power here. Just that he's not in another league from these guys, he's in the same league.
