If Travis isn't careful, Quakemaster is going to kill someone. And while he has no love for most of these guys, a lot of them are petty thugs - people he would have associated with once.
Problem is, with the guy's power over earth, he can't just blast him - something would get in the way, and getting in close could be a trouble all its own.
With no time to be subtle, he grabs everything and everyone around indiscriminately, and rockets a few tons of surroundings and supervillains into the upper atmosphere where it starts getting a little hard to breathe. "Three choices folks - we go higher and the air gets thinner, we go down... really, really fast, or anyone who wants to go back to their nice comfy cell grabs any fliers and anyone resisting arrest before I choose options A or B for you."
He may have missed a few down there, but most, he figures, are either unconscious, wounded, or still stumbling. Given circumstances, and going most of this fight alone while hie teammates play with the big guns, he'll take what he can get.
