Batman Vs Namor

Looking back to this thread...

Reminds me how utterly, completely underrated Namor was...

If Batman gets prep time, I guess he could make up something. But it better be something that kills him, because even dehydrated, Namor does kick ass...

Namor has been on dehydrating machine, with no contact to water, THREE DAYS STRAIGHT. He hasn't eaten, slept or had any other refreshments. Is he completely useless? No, not at all.

First, Namor breaks the machine by exerting his muscles.

Then, a punk shoots him in the chest with machine gun, point blank range. Not a scratch (note, Namor is about dozens of times LESS durable, less fast, less strong then he would be at full power.)

After that, Namor fights the punks. He is owning them, so they need to drop a metal thing that probably weighs tons directly at his head...and guess what?

It didn't knock him out.

But if Namor gets prep time too, he wins.

Once again DC you have made your case.

I have to agree.

The way I see it I think the outcome of the fight also depends on who Namor got done fighting initially. If he just got done with say Doc Ock, Punisher, Venom or...Wolverine and was out of water for a day or 2 he owns Batman with minimal effort. On the other hand If it were Thor, Superman or someone on that level and out of water for a day or 2 Namor still takes it but with obviously mmuch more effort.

It's stated simply dehydrating Namor doesn't have the same effect kryptonite has on Supes. Heck, like DC's shown, even after three days being in a dehydration chamber Namor still was on a level of durability and strength that Captain America can only dream of.

So, Even in an emaciated state Namor would prove a hand full for Bats. Sure Bats could pull it off with prep but it's pretty cheap and doesn't say much for Bats..

Heck I just was thinking. Namor was in a machine designed to suck all the moisture out of a body for 3 frickin days! I know Bats is genius and all but he's no Reed Richards. Even if he knew Namor's weakness I doubt he'd be able to construct a reliable device to dehydrate Namor completely in a matter of moments. Give him Six months prep and the same circumstances for Rex than you got a more likely win for Bats.....

Actually, Bruce Wayne is like DC's Reed Richards. Come to think of it, Batman was around like 22 years before the Fantastic Four. So actually, Reed Richards is like Marvel's Bruce Wayne.

Batman gets a week of preptime, and Namor just finished fighting a battle on land and here comes Batman, Back kicking him in the head.

Knee to the gut, and a round house kick to the Face. I will say the rest but I want to hear what you guys think first.

Then Namor rips Batman's leg off and beats him with it, then pimp slaps him for the win.

Entertaining that Batman could beat Namor is like saying that Wolverine can beat Superman.

Maybe if Batman just came up to Namor out of the blue, but not with a week of prep. ❌

does prep guarantee a win, what happens if the prep does not work?

I'm not saying it does it's just that Batman wouldn't be that stupid to just walk in there and brawl with Namor, especially after he's been preping for a week!

Bruce Wayne and Reed Richards aren't really similar. Bruce Wayne is self-learned genius. Reed Richards is natural born genius. Bruce Wayne at age seven was just like a normal boy. Where as Reed Richards at age of seven was basically a Nobel Prize candidate. Reed has had major headstart. Hell, Reed at age five was probably smarter then Bruce at age ten.

"Despite this, Richards' strength comes more from the powers of his mind than the powers of his body. He is the unquestioned supreme scientific intellect on the earth, his closest rival being the mind of Doctor Doom. Not only has Reed proven himself to be a genius in practically every science on Earth, he has shown himself to be more knowledgable than even some of the most highly advanced alien civilizations in the known universe. He has been known to turn scraps of machinery into deadly weaponry within seconds."

Bruce is smart. Reed is a lot smarter. And even Reed was impressed by technology Namor has in his use...

Batman is also a genius. I mean look at all the technology he has created. He created DC's version of the ultimate nullifier that Reed built, the motherbox. And that's just one of the awesome things he's created.

Batman didn't create Mother Box...

He creates amazing things in street level terms. Something that is impressive by normal humans. Whereas Reed creates things that make galactic empires stand in awe.

Batmans way above street level.

Plus he invented Brother Eye which able to be used to take over the world almost till Batman outsmarted it and it thought 5 steps ahead of Batman and he still beat it.

Like I said, this isn't a fight. A week's worth of prep can't always take a guy who is uber-powerful in Batman's case. People like Reed Richards and Iron Man are WAY above Batman in intelligence and prep time. Namor still wins, easy.

C'mon now. Batman took down Solomon Grundy with just tear gas and use of pressure points. Please don't make the mistake of underestimating Batman.

batdude, in your opinion how can namor win this fight I would just once like to hear you give a batman opponent a chance to win...No disrespect intended.

Well DC has Batman almost always wining so thats why lots of Batman fans think he can win so much.

Well, obviously Batman isn't invincible. He's just a human but a genius at that. He can do some pretty incredible sh*t if you give him prep time. Especially in a week's time. But if he were to just charge at Namor and not use his brain then Namor would kick the crap out of Batman. But Batman isn't that stupid and in my opinion, with his prep time I could see him winning this fight 6/10 times.
