Yup. Easily among the top 3 : Superman, Orion, Surfer.

Ditto.

He would be number 1.

Number 1.

He would be lucky to be in top 3.

Only the good ones, not Villains.
The one Presence aboe all aka Batman
1. Superman
2. Hal Jordan
3. Alan Scott
4. Flash (Wally/Barry)
5. Pre-DCnU Billy
6. Silver Surfer

He'd be top 5 if not top 3, but he'd never be written or portrayed as #1.

IDK, DC seems to LOVE Surfer to be honest. Just look at his crossover performances... he's absolutely trashed Orion, has 2 clean wins over Kyle, shocked Supes by reversing Mxy's handiwork, had Parallax saying that he needed his power, and absorbed the the power of the GL central battery when Kyle couldn't. He wouldn't take over Supes's position as the flagship character, but it's not totally inconceivable that DC would show him as the most powerful hero. Not definitively of course(writers opinions will still vary just as they do now), but I have no doubt that he'd receive that nod more than most do. Surfer would be portrayed as an absolute beast if DC ever got their hands on him.

They have Cap Atom, and he's def up there in the pantheon, so to speak.

If he's in the top 3, he's obviously going to be written as a beast. 😛

Honestly though, barring someone coming along that loves him as much as Johns loves Barry or Hal, I just don't see them making him their number one, even if he's powerful enough to compete for it.

Oh I agree, but I think someone like that would come along sooner rather than later. Hell all he'd need is for any of the guys writing the crossovers to put in charge of his DC book more than likely.

If Superman is a 100, then the Surfer would be a 107.

He's millions, maybe billions of times more powerful then DC's top heralds.

A bloodlusted Surfer should casually one shot Superman, the same way he should casually one shot Thor (Think what Airwalker did in Heroes Reborn. That's exactly how it should be when Norrin unloads on him.)

He is top 5 in a composite tier list. It stands to reason he would be a top dog in DC.

However DC Earth is stacked. Flash Duo, Superman, Dr Fate, Hal and Kyle etc..

I think he might break top 5, certainly not top 3.

Green Lanterns have superior feats to Silver Surfer, yet they still can't break top 3.

Assuming editorial let them, sure, but how long would that last? Writers are constantly changing books. I don't see him having the kind of repeated referencing in that kind of position as other characters, but maybe that's just me.

Uh, Cyborg Superman had him dancing like a ballerina while Henshaw literally laughed at his attacks. He also said that even at full power he had slim hopes of beating Kyle.

Kyle also defeated an amped Thanos and Parallax amped on his power and all Surfer did was contain the power which Kyle had already absorbed.

And what 2 wins over Kyle? The only win was fan voted win.

And no, Superman has already defeated both of Surfer peers Thor and Hulk more decisively than Surfer can do.
