Byrne Superman vs Byrne Namor.

Who wins?

Notable feats from Byrne Namor?

Pretty sure Superman takes it anyway, though.

Off the top of my head , some feats include:

Struggling with Lei Kung the Thunderer and needing Colleen to take over, getting his butt kicked by those tree people, before Iron Fist tore them up. Being shown up by Wolverine, getting his mind erased by a wizard....

Umm?

Yeah I know right. Lulz.

If anyone knows some good feats, I'm all ears.

From the stories I've read, Byrne wrote a pretty low end Namor.

If it makes a difference, use year one Byrne. Back when Superman was hurt badly by an atom bomb.

...that's when it happened, right?

Been some years, but I remember Superman saying something like "It's going to be a long walk", because the nuke took so much out of him.

Byrne Era Superman had some great feats, even for now.

Just seems bad when you compare that he was fresh off the COIE and prior days.

Still don't understand what this thread is about?

O_o It's Byrne's Namor fighting Byrne's Superman.

^_^ I was going to make it Namor vs Thing, but thought "Pair up the Byrne downgrades"....

*Cough* So, no one's an authority on Byrne Namor.....?

I figured he must have "something" high end. All I followed was the Iron Fist stories, and like I said, all he did was get beaten down....

Perhaps not my best thought out post, but it's two low end Byrne's.. Couldn't resist matching them up.

Superman can do anything better than Namor, including moving underwater at greater speeds. This is not a contest, nor was Byrne Superman that weak. Superman could end this in one move if he so chose. I just got the feeling from looking at this thread that it was a let's shame Namor thread, and then you went and posted this...

And I was sure that it was.

*Sigh*

In retrospect, I can see why you'd think that...

But it's just me jumping at a chance to compare two characters from a single writer that share a common theme (Being underwritten).. Not much more thought put into it than that. It was an impulse thread. ^_^;;;;

Was kind expecting one or two posters to say "Namor wasn't written that bad, he has such and such high end feats!" v_V;

Apparently he was and he didn't.

Freeze breath FTW. Supes has too much abilities unless Namor has the Trident.

Freezing came after Byrne. He wrote it more or less as a hurricane attack.

Looks that way..

He wrote a good Darkseid, and a decent Gladiator... But no love for Namor, I guess...
