    I don't think Surfer knows the human alphabet...? Or at least it's his second language so advantage Kyle.

    Reversing the earth's rotation?
    I think both could do it but I think Norrin could do it more easily albeit with more collateral.

    Pulling a block of Adamantium away from Magneto?
    I'd back Kyle on this one.

    Talking to animals/plants?
    I think Norrin has more feats of this I think.

    Hitting intangible opponents?
    I actually don't know this one.

    Getting my two year old to eat vegetables? (Peacefully - no forcing!)
    Norrin has his whole aura of purity thing that should be calming for a kid.

    Beating Pendaran in a debate?
    Depends on the topic. I'd personally back Kyle, he's got a sharper wit.

    Traveling through time?
    Norrin is the boy on this one.

    Turning off a black holes negative effects?
    Probably Norrin.

    I'm pretty sure I could take Final Crisis/the writers stopped even trying to pretend he still existed for any other reason anymore than to make Hal look good era Kyle. "Gah!" while flailing is pretty easy to beat in a conversation.

    Granted, Hal Jordan will then swoop in to kick my ass, but you know, tradeoffs.

    For the Magneto one ...

    I just see Norrin 'curing' Magneto of his mutant powers. Then he just grabs it.
    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    Surfer. Processes information very fast.

    Reversing the earth's rotation?
    Gotta go with Kyle whose done much more than this.

    Pulling a block of Adamantium away from Magneto?
    Tough call *flips coin*

    talking to animals/plants?
    Draw? Both can communicate fluently to alien races IIRC.

    Hitting intangible opponents?
    Particularly if molecular vibrational shenanigans are involved I'd go with Surfy.

    Getting my two year old to eat vegetables? (Peacefully - no forcing!)
    No probs Arby. If Norrin can cause world peace for 5 minutes, I'm betting he can bring peace to your dinner table

    beating Pendaran in a debate?
    Whoa, whoa..hold on Arby. I mean, were treading hallowed ground here. Pen dishes out butt whippings on Rumbles like Catholic priests administer communion every midnight in Boston.

    Traveling through time?
    Aside from manipulating massive amounts of energy and matter, travelling time is like...a thing for Surfer. At one point I counted 16 separate time travel feats for the shiny guy.

    Turning off a black holes negative effects?
    I'll guess Surfer on this.
