I know i disagree with most in my instance in this but while i understand Surfer's inherent Superiority to Superman, i dont really understand nor buy into Silver Surfer inherent superiority to Martian Manhunter (pre new 52).
Few things here though:
1. Surfer is not immune to TP, TP has worked on Surfer just fine on multiple occasion. He however is a pretty good telepath and does have good telepathic resistance. Thanks to CitizenBane, i have seen some awesome feats from Martian Manhunter which would suggest he could take down Surfer with telepathy.
2. Take down MMH with fire: Surfer has never on panel, at least none to my knoweledge, has ever created fire with power cosmic. While he is a matter manipulator he has to somehow learn of Martian Manhunter weakness to fire to use it anyhow, and Surfer cosmic awareness much like a detailed explained in current Avengers in regards to Starbrand is about knowing the flow of energy, which should give him no knoweledge of a mentally implanted pyschi weakness.
3. Surfer blitzes Martian Manhunter, beyond nanosecond Surfer has shown no better reaction time. He should be just as fast as Superman, but honestly he has shown very little to suggest he could blitz anyone here.
4. Black Hole is a technique Surfer has never used. He created a blackhole by discharaging his energy in Annihilation, he has threaten people to open a black hole in their eye, but has never on panel shown an ability to open black hole willy nilly, but we could likely give him the benefit of the doubt since Starfire, another herald of Galactus has shown that ability.
