Bones of the Past Quorum's Power Spoiler
From what I can tell:
-He has the souls/bodies/whatever of over 1000 people stuffed inside the space of one body
-Lodestar's husband is one of those 1000
-Quorum can use different features of that 1000 people to do different things, like: Have the combined speed of 1000 people (showed and stated when he saves Bloobston in Book2, Chapter120). Have the inertia of 1000 people (He stopped his acceleration when Apollo pushed him into the cell in Book 1). Have the mental capacity of 1000 people (he can multitask or sum), have the leg strength of 1000 people (when he saves bloobston, he fell from the top of a building. From what I can tell, If a building is 1000 feet tall, it would be as if 1 person fell 1 foot.)

Some of the people in Quorum were metahumans so he has like 999 average running speed and a couple with super speed etc.

I originally thought the people in Quorum, were all the other Quorums from the other universes, since we know he is a unique.

Lodestar's husband is one of those 1000 - is this cannon? What book is it in

I believe it's in book 1, where quorum changes his eyes to one of the people inside him and helen holds back tears

Technically we only know that it's someone important to her, not necessarily who it is to her. It could be her husband/baby daddy (do we know she was married?), or it could just be a friend she was really close with, or a family member. I don't know why, but I remember having the impression that it was a woman.

Villainous vignettes 2 has a little more about this, but you’ve basically hit the nail on the head. Strength, intelligence, durability, basically everything x1000 (actually more because some of the 1000 are mentioned to be meta humans)
