Silver Surfer is now willing to utilize all his abilities and the Power Cosmics nearly limitless resources to screw with Thor in this death battle, speedblitz, all out, full knowledge, lethal intent on both sides.

First scan Thor is in Warrior Madness, second Surfer is holding back big time, trying to find out information.

It was just a psychotic Thor and I'm sure he was holding back tremendously when he spit out "are you finished?!??!?!??!?!!?" and blasted Thor in the face.
I remember back on the Marvel Boards when someone believed that proved Surfer could one shot kill Thor. Too bad in the same comic Thor was hit in the back by Surfer (Actually intending to put him out) only for a temporary knockout. And no, not relevant either because there was an energy drain systematically depowering the heroes I believe. Which now that I think about, had Thor exposed to it the longest IIRC, been a while.
Hmm Thor>Surfer. But with Surfer doing all he can and I know we ain't debating powersets but if he truly uses his abilites at his best. Black hole to the head 10/10 before Thor can use his hammer throw or Godblast.
