Illuminati was a total one-off fluke though ... every other time they have fought it's been hard for Namor to cope with IM, with IM winning most of their fights ... but all of a sudden repulsors don't even affect him?
It didn't seem like the creative team thought that one out too well.

He wasn't. He said some words to Namor, but it was Namor who started the fight, and Iron Man flew straight into the ocean (CIS at the very least).
Yeah ... since when does the second or third smartest super hero on the planet think it's a good idea to try to avoid Namor by going underwater?
That was dumb.

how many times have these two faced off? I've seen one ancient battle which is most likely irrelivant today as both characters have become stronger over the years. Even then ironman seemed to win that fight by taking a stunned namor by surprise and dehydrating him right of the bat... I'm not so sure that's gonna happen to a namor who's not F'in around....
in any case, I've only seen the two confrontations between them and they've gone both ways.
then there's the stint w/war machine, but honestly all he seemed to be doing was holding namor off.
Originally posted by snoopdoggI agree he wasn't looking for a fight but he was certainly trying to defend himself after the initial punch, none of it was to any effect, I would imagine that has to hold at least SOME weight here.
I am not ignoring it but I don't think Tony was looking to fight. Was he? Can somebody post the whole fight?

he was running away, he wasn't fairing much better OUT of the water either. 😬
