As for super-speed, Orion has used it more than Thor. He doesn't **** around.
Also, Orion is a planner. At least MUCH MORE than Thor. The way he took out Arnicus Wolfram is a work of genius. Thor, to my knowledge hasn't pulled something like that. But I could be wrong.

The Human Heart beats about 100 beats Per Minute. Orion flew from New Genesis to Earth under his own power in under one Heart beat. On Panel Description. Now that is some mean flight power. No one is touching that.
You dont' know what the hell you are talking about. Unless you own every New Gods book ever. tell me, Just how far New Gensis is from Earth. If you don't know, then shut the hell up.
It's a universe away. Which is why most require a boom tube to even travel from there to anywhere else. it is it's own infinite Reality. Thus traveling from it thru sheer flight power takes SuperNatural power of the highest order.
In terms of New Genesis, there is a feat where Supergirl ( I think it was Supergirl) traveled to New Genesis. She was the size of an ant compared to the people living there.
New Genesis is it's own dimension, with it's own rules.

I remember when Superman first traveled to Apokolips, a lone Gravity Guard or whatever they are called stalemated Superman. Superman stated that EVERYONE on the planet was moving at SUPER-SPEEDS that surpassed him or matched him.
SADLY A lot of writers have depowerred the new gods and have Superman stalemate the likes of Darkseid.
In Superman Confidential, Orion took out Superman with a simple Astro Force blast.
Well, Grant has explained that the New Gods are at war for eternity. And that sometimes DS wins and Sometimes New Gen wins. And then they start over again. From the beginning of time. As if they thier time starts over but runs perpendicular to the DCU. So they are always changing. And in these changes, sometimes they are more powerful,a nd sometimes less powerful. It even explains alternate Universe New Gods when we know there is only one set of them. It's all them.
