Namor vs Aquaman comparative strength

In your opinion how much stronger (if any) is Namor compared to Aquaman?

Namor is a class 100 so he's a good deal stronger then most versions of Aquaman I would think. Though apparently the latest version of Aquaman is a lot stronger physically so I'm not sure about that.

I think post crisis Aquaman could beat Namor in a fight, but only due to telepathy.

On average Namor is stronger, but it's not by leaps and bounds. Anyone able to send Thanos back on his heals with a punch is pretty strong.

Thanks for the answers.

I think most people will agree that Namor is stronger, what it will be interesting is to see what is the general consensus of how much stronger one is compared to the other.

Not an exact number but a vague "not leaps and bounds" like stoic did, will suffice.😀

Hmm, well let me put it another way. If you were to reduce Namor to half strength I still think he would be above Aquaman, and not only by a little bit.

But again, this doesn't necessarily reflect the current version. I seem to recall hearing about a few crazy strength feats for past verions of Aquaman like...holding up a city or something like that? Or something to do with San Fransicso? But I think that is lightyears away from his average.

I've always been of the opinion Namor is stronger (with the latest Aquaman version making it the smallest gap yet), while Aquaman is faster underwater.

PreDCnU Namor was above AM, now they should be on the same level.

Lowballing of Aquaman is apparent. Theyre pretty much equals.

So we have a should be and a pretty much. Add my smallest gap yet (dirty!), and Namor having the edge is still just fine.

Yeah this is more or less what I've been saying. There was a time when Namor was a good deal stronger and tougher then Aquaman.

Aquaman might indeed be the faster swimmer, I can't recall many swimming speed feats for Namor.

It sounds like he said pre DCnU Aquaman, in which Namor is waaay more then twice as strong as post crisis Aquaman.

Remember Martian Manhunter just f*cking laughed at Aquaman when he thought he could take on Superman.

(please log in to view the image)

You can see the pity in his eyes, lol. This guy had pretty much his entire race wiped out and he STILL f*cks with Aquaman.

Namor was intended, by Marvel, to be close to 100 tons maximum. Some writers had him exceed that in some feats by accident because they weren't thinking about the force needed to do the feats. Namor as a norm can fight Thing on nearly even terms.

Aquaman has always been around 50-70 tons.

Both characters has feats above this, but them fighting a character within those strength ranges I gave will ALWAYS yield a competitive fight.


The problem with comics is that almost all strong characters can fight each other on near even terms (provided that one is not astronomically stronger than the other). Thing, Colossus, etc has fought much stronger characters on even terms. Namor has fought Hulk, Hercules, etc on near equal terms.

To make sense out of that I just say the characters he fought was operating at a lower than average strength level for the sake of the plot.

Lol 100 tons? Namor has easily lifted up ocean liners.

I'd say Namor is 30% stronger.
