Batman and Martian manhunter for the win.

Mm takes the form of silver surfers deceased lover and can't attack
Bruce Wayne does a hostile takeover of Starks industries and makes Tony bankrupt 😜

Seriously SS and ironman for the win

Silver Surfer is more powerful than Martian Manhunter, and I don't subscribe to, "Batman wins with prep time" for every enemy he faces. Marvel wins this fight.

Batman with prep solos.

Considering his first appearance predates any of the others by a healthy margin, he has ample time to prevent those other books from even being written.

Batman against the other 3? Batman.

Batman with anyone against the remaining 2? Batman.

Remember he is one of the 2 smartest guys on the planet, and the other one isn't in the fight. Brains over brawn anytime.

MM and SS are aliens...not of this planet....with what they've both seen and experienced, I'd wager their intellect is superior to Batman.

SS would destroy all these guys combined.

For me, Manhunter has the edge. Telepath, shapeshifter and super strength. Or, I guess Tony could just light a match and he'd faint...

Crap. As much as I want it to be Batman and MM, I'm going with Iron Man and SS.

My assessment is that, with adequate prep time, Batman could devise a strategy to distract Silver Surfer, albeit momentarily. During that brief time, Martian Manhunter could telepath Surfer and strike Iron Man with an energy projection. I admit here, that neither of these would decimate Surfer or Iron Man, however could repel them enough to allow Batman to disarm Tony.. thus leaving Silver Surfer to go it alone against Bruce and Martian..

Iron Man and Silver Surfer win easily. Iron Man’s armor and flight could defeat Batman’s gadgets and vehicles. Silver Surfer has the power cosmic which the Martian Manhunter could not deal with. Marvel defeats DC yet again!

I hear you, re: Silver Surfer has the power cosmic.. but doesn't Martian Manhunter has cosmic power?
Other thought.. Batman has previously created robotic suits similar to Iron Man, which could level the playing field..

I'd figure SS has both. He has to have a quick mind in order to move at the speeds he's capable of moving.

They'd be piles of dust. Another way to answer is: Who of these four could stand a chance against Galactus?

That's pretty much immediately where my mind went; "Silver Surfer has the Power Cosmic". I won't profess to know everything about Martian Manhunter, but of what I do know, I can't put him on that level.

OK but wait! Don't rule out Martian and Batman yet!
If Martian is as powerful as Superman.. then he could take on Surfer!

"Martian Manhunter has super-strength on par with that of Superman, who's done things like crack a planet in half. Combining his own natural strength with his telekinetic abilities, Martian Manhunter can lift items that weigh well over a hundred tons.

In some cases, they have shown him carrying ocean tankers, which can weigh over 100,000 tons, or even helping Superman to move the moon slightly. That kind of strength is often understated to keep him from overshadowing Superman."
