Namor is far stronger, Hulk level strength when in the water, and a far more savage and experienced fighter. No question, in my mind, that Namor takes this easily.

All due respect to Arthur, a character I’ve loved for decades, but that DC vs Marvel battle where Arthur wins by dropping a whale on Namor is just absurd. And Arthur just doesn’t have the strength, speed, skill and savagery of Namor to take this.

Namor would pimp slap Aquaman and then bang his wife.

Traditionally I’d go with Namor. Aquaman has been pretty beefed up over the years though. He’s even done well fighting against Superman at this point. As far as strength he appears to be just under Wonder Woman, who is just under Superman.

Still, Namor is older, more experienced and a bit more savage. He just gets stupidly snubbed, like having a whale dropped on him on DC VS Marvel, or when Thing pinned him under water in AvX using giant tusks, the same tusks Namor just ripped out. Victim of stupid writing.

I wouldn't say that wonder woman is just under superman. That's like saying Sharapova is just under Serena... which is to say, there isn't any competition there to speak of. To the main topic, I think Namor is much older and just more of a warrior and a tactician, compared to Arthur. I don't see a pathway to victory for Aquaman here

I’ve been a lifelong fan of Namor and I’m trying not to be bias but if you follow modern Namor story lines he now has a new major ability to control water like never before : hydrokinisis . In the story arch where the Avengers go on undersea Namor witch hunt he basically hands all of them their asses ( that included some major powerhouses like Captain Marvel and Thor). Heck he actually stopped Mjolnir with one hand and held it in place freezing Thor .

Aquaman wouldn’t stand much chance with this new power level Namor .

but what about Namor vs Mera? They both have hydrokinisis power and I wonder how he would fare again her (since after decades DC is finally realizing the true potential of Mera, thanks to Geoff Johns).
