Galactus offered Surfer several things: (i) will; (ii) renewed power; and (iii) no more remorse. Silver Surfer refuses the offer to take away his remorse. Galactus restores his will and his power. Which is confirmed here, "Galactus welcomes the Surfer back as his Herald, restoring his power and resolve":

Really? What I got from those scans (will read the full issue later) was that Ravenous and SS were fighting evenly, pound for pound, until Surfer decided to stop playing, and end things. Then Ravenous was all oh wow ur teh awsum.
Call it whatever you want, an upgrade, a restoration of willpower or whatever else. Whatever it was it was something different and Ravenous recognized it and the material makes it emphatically clear. THAT much is certain.
@Abhi,
Ravenous without currs was tooled by Xenith. He was trying to fight her back, he just didn't have the speed or power to do anything. Comparing that to the Surfer scenario is not accurate at all bro.

And people say Surfer sucks H2H 😛
This is another example of Surfer when he stops holding back. He beats up Skaar and forcefully tears the Oldpower from him when he learned Skaar was going to destroy the planet.

In the real world, "DC portrays Superman as superior to J'onn because they like him more" isn't a counter argument to "Superman is superior to J'onn because DC shows it". They're the ones who created and published both of the characters, and who defined and will define their abilities and formidability, for their whole existence.It's a butthurt rationalization that means nothing.
Except the instances where Martians are described as being more powerful than Superman?

Looked as though Surfer was losing until he absorbed Skaar's power and channeled it to beat him down. Great showing of energy manipulation though.

yeah but actual comic showings show Superman to be superior to Martians in spades.
more feats doesn't equal more powerful icebuddy... Yes superman has been shown to outperform J'onn at times.. I'm just pointing out that Martians have been, on various occarions, been described as more powerful.
Originally posted by KuRuPT ThanosiI would say more feats and better feats. I dont see J'onn beating Darkseid or Henshaw for a majority. Supermans track record is simply better. J'onn may be more versatile but Superman is more powerful hes stronger, faster and more durable by a good margin.

What are you talking about? Surfer never absorbed Skaar's power and used it against him. He knocked Skaar out, then sealed away his power.

He took Skaar's power, beat him up then sealed it away. When he eventually beat Skaar he was glowing green with the old power, before that he was losing. It looks as though he amped from it.
