Eddie eats the creepy fish guy's brains.

In a pure slug-fest, Aquaman easily. If Venom "invades" him, well, that's different.

Venom has proven he can tank blunt force trauma far past what Arthur can dish out imo. And Arthur's durability is past Venoms strength as well so I don't see a slugfest getting either the advantage.

He's got a mouf, though.
I like the way you think.

What's Venom's blunt resistance average?

Needing to recover after getting direct hit by a f*cking train is considered a low showing for him... before his many upgrades.

He can murder an entire army of aquamans.

He lost to Colossus, though.

When?

And don't you dare mention Gargan.

During Utopia, iirc. It's been a while since I read it, but I thought I remembered Colossus shoving a wad of concrete in to his face.

lol, sorry.

There was a reason why this message board ridiculed and abhorred Mac Gargan Venom for more or less 10 years

Eddie Brock is back to being Venom now --- and he's nothing like Mac. Assuming the symbiote isn't pregnant again or anything like that, he is the most powerful version of Venom.

He even went toe to toe with the Classic Juggernaut, canon. Which was referenced in the non-usable ( biscuits ) Access DC/Marvel cross-over... when Eddie raped Superman.

lol. Okay, fair's fair, I know sweet **** all about Brock Venom outside of the cartoon, so I have no idea what he can do.

At their absolute best, symbiotes are f*cking nightmares in Versus threads. They ignore most kinds of damage, can regenerate from almost any injury...

Arthur's best chance is going all exotic on Eddie. Freezing him might work?

Some versions can do that. I don't know how the current one is atm due to the book being kinda shite.

Cullen Buun's version could do that... but Aquafanboys made him leave the book.

Fire- and sonic-based attacks is something you want to be able to spam like crazy when facing Brock.

Hey, don't put that on me and Mungi.

How is he with telepathy?

Talking to fish won't work, bro.

Could've sworn he was mutated when he went against Jugs. Possessed with numerous of viruses that amped him.

People have been arguing over that for more than two decades.

Sam, get your ass here.

Not quite sure that's what I'd call a telepathic resistance feat, tbh.

Just messing with you.

Here is a nice feat, Eddie takes control of Devil Dinosaur, breaking the yellow dude's control over DD in the process:

That's a nice feat, but I have a genuine question. My assumption would be that Aquaman would go after the consciousness of the symbiote itself, not the victim/host. Does it have any defences against that?

It might sound like a stupid question, but as I said, symbiotes really aren't my forte.

I'm not sure Arthur can specifically target the symbiote itself, when it's bonded with Brock. Their connection is unusually strong. And while Brock is not Cletus, he's not actually sane either, which complicates matters further.

Called Sam, he's our resident symbiote expert.

Sorry, didn't see the Sam signal from my basement of solitude where I spend most of the day beating off to tentacle hentai porn.

Tbh I was going to post the same scans Parm's already posted. Then there's a red sonja crossover where a telepathy assault failed against the symbiote. Not sure if it's considered canon though. Also, that's just Venom. Carnage has been controled by Mr. Sinister once.

Also, Venom did fight the Juggernaut in the Madness storyline on three different occasions. He wasn't amped during those fights, just drivven insane (hence the name of the story) for a brief period of time. He lost it before the third encounter with Juggs anyway. So yeah, Venom is a beast. I've never seen the symbiotes fail to take over any character. Including heralds/hulks and even Captain motherfukin America.

My two cents.

The only time I recall a symbiote actually fail to take over in "a battle of wills" if you want to call it that was a non canon symbiote failing on a non canon Doom (MF Doom we're talking about here)

Cap who resisted Quentin Quire once was taken over by a no name symbiote in Planet of the Symbiotes and Carnage who was at the same time controlling Hawkeye, Wolverine, Thing a town with 1145 (not all because some got away and formed a resistance) citizens and a Zoo (he controlled most animals too)
