Namor Vs Thing

Started by Wynndar6 pages

I have the comic book i dont need to see scans of one page. Even though the fight is underwater, this clearly doesnt give Namor any kind of strength advantage.

Ah FF #411

Namor isn't fighting to his fullest...he tries to make Thing listen to reason.

yea its not very conclusive ill admit...all those old school fights were like that.

Drizzt Do'Urden. Who is even more badass than Namor... And would beat either! 😄

But Namor though... Yeah. In/fresh from water his strength's a lot better (when underwater, he outmuscled hulk...) He eventually gets down to something like class 40 though... He's still much the better fighter, in either case. I'd give him 9/10 fresh from water and 4/10 when he's dry for a while. Underwater, he should be owning all 10, cuz Ben should get a lot weaker and slower in addition to Namor's boost... (not saying he always has, but he definitely should)

Argh. Namor and Thing would school the whole Menzoberranzan. 😠

Drizzt is badass though. 😉

Well there's no need to say what could or should happen. Thing and Namor have fought in and out of water and they were both always tough and basically even.

Underwater Namor beat Hulk very decisively. Thing hasn't come close to that anywhere. I was also counting the fact that water would make Ben slower and effectively weaker, while it just boosts Namor and gives him a lot more mobility.

Water replenishes Namor constantly. He is hit, he is almost immediatly healed. I don't see how Thing could beat him underwater.

But they have fought underwater and it did not make Grimm slower or weaker. I dont understand the first assumption that the water should make him slower or weaker. The Thing's exterior allows him to survive unprotected in the vacuum of space.

Noone beats Namor underwater. NOBODY! At least not any hero ive seen. And not counting his villains.

I think Ice man would have something to say abut that, as well as about a thousand cosmic characters. 🙂

Has he fought Iceman? No. I was talking about everyone hes already fought. Even though Iceman is my all time favorite comic character, I wouldnt mind him beating my no.2. Which is Namor. Most likey if they did, Namor would win. And you know its true.

Sorry. I'm a Namor fan but the thing is 15 to 20 tons stronger.
Course Namor's flight may tip the scales in his favor.
The Thing is tough but being dropped form the stratosphere a few dozen times can rattle a guy.

🤨

Let me direct you to this.

Namor is way faster, stronger, better or as good fighter, more experienced and as durable.

Namor wins 9/10.

And by the way, the fight in the comic with Thing and Namor was staged by those two to help free Alicia.

In Fantastic Four #14, Thing tries to grab Namor, but Namor is slippery as eel, and gets out of his grasp with extreme ease. So grappling doesn't apply either.

Their feats still show that Namor is both stronger, faster and more durable, more skilled, and WAY more experienced then Thing.

Per Marvel's site it gives these rating which go from 0-7

Just the fact that Marvel site is sometimes wrong.

Namor has better training and twice more fighting experience then Thing has.

"Namor has better training and twice more fighting experience then Thing"

If that statement is true.

Then this.

Namor STR 6 DUR 6 Fighting skills 3

THING STR 6 DUR 6 Fighting skills 5

Just means that Namor just didn't have the physical nor mental tools that Ben did to start with...

And thats ok...

Because he's still the "chicken of the sea"

...Ur... i mean "Prince of the sea"

" Sorry. I'm a Namor fan but the thing is 15 to 20 tons stronger. "

🏴‍☠️

That would imply he is a match to Hulk/Thor and Herc.

Find me a comic that shows him above Namor with that difference. A full power Namor that is.

Altho i suspect you meant....weaker? Something its not right here.

Per the comics, the wonderful Marvel Site as well the famous handbooks have errors.
