The only thing he got that from that upgrade was that he could now Quantum jump. He took days to get to the moon once when he forgot how to quantum jump after that.
So what's your point? You pointed out the time it took him to travel to Uranus as a way to put down his abilities and I simply pointed out that in the same issue (IIRC), he gained the ability to instantly cross the distance easily meaning that your comment is no longer relevant.

Again, how does him having (relatively) slow travel speed at the start of his career relevant here?

Then Makkari dragged him around the world which was a blur to him

****ing whizzer was so fast to him that Quasar couldn't even see him

You're not getting what I'm saying.
What relevance is Quasar's travel speed have to do with anything?
It's kinda like me saying that Superman has crappy energy construct powers.
Why insert his reflex speed when no one was arguing it in the first place? Yes, he has human-level reflexes, super reflex speed was never part of his powerset. His powers are about energy attacks/constructs and energy absorption.
And while I would agree that he is on the lower end of the totem pole within the Surfer group, I'd like to see what "feats" DCnU WW has that would make this team battle lopsided.

Well, I can certainly agree with that. I seem to remember Gladiator giving him fits, too. Tho I wouldn't say "stomp".
Just don't understand the line of reasoning wherein you correlate his relatively low-end travel movement speed (w/c is compensated by his Quantum Jump) as some form of major disadvantage when opposed to Superman's speed. Would have been better if you used his human-level reaction time (as that would be more relevant in a combat situation). /shrug
Guess it's just how you put things. 😛
Edit. I do remember him being able to Quantum Jump from within the atmosphere, will have to dig up some old Quasar comics...

Quasar could potential absorb Superman's power, his lifeforce or Superman himself. He absorbed Ego and Ego > Superman. And there is little question in my mind that he could absorb Hal's energies.

I don't think you know the full detail about how Quasar absorbed Ego's energies through Reed's device. He isn't going to absorb Hal's energy since its outside EM spectrum and Quasar is useless against those kind of energies. I know you have looked through marvel respect threads a lot here, but this isn't your wet dreams where Marvel>DC in everything.
