I hope Azz doesn't have WW humiliating him.As for Aquaman, I'll just wait for Throne of Atlantis to begin and comment on the upcoming fights.
Johns said we are going to see power levels in this event, and I really want to see what Puny Batman will do, since the days of Batgod seem to be over under Johns.
Johns said we'd see power levels? Really?

"Showing his power level, his fortitude, his sense of honor and commitment and responsibility, and hopefully showing everything that makes a hero a hero. I think Aquaman embodies that more than a lot of other heroes out there."

Interesting. I just hope it's better than his "ten times as dense" line.
There might be other players involved, but Johns said that Orm will get the name Ocean Master in this storyline.
I think something will happen and force Orm to do something evil, loosing the Throne in the process, and in JL there was a typical Johns "next year" panel that showed AQ leading the Atlantean armies, so maybe AQ will also turn "bad" for a while.

That "10 times as dense as human muscle" thing was really silly though.That puts his strength a little higher than Spider-man level.
But it was an opinion of Manta, without any proof.
On the other hand we've already seen AQ lift an ocean liner, collapse an underwater mountain, fight Darkseid, restrain Cheetah with one hand and punch through a collapsed cave (with on punch).
Not to mention he jumps like the Hulk, is bulletproof and swims at speeds > Mach 5.
So Manta's opinion is irrelevant.

That was either a mistake or Manta's opinion, since we've seen AQ lift an ocean liner and take a hit from Darkseid already.
It was crap either way.

Yeah, you'd think with the fact that Arthur had actually punched Manta, he'd have a better idea of how strong he is. Unless he was just being hyperbolic and trying to sound impressive or something.

Damn, Aquaman has already displayed some insane feats. Is DCnU Aquaman already more formidable than Pre-Flashpoint?

In terms of strength? Yes. Durability? About the same. Telepathy not so much.

and the explosion, and walked with a gaping hole in his leg.

NuAQ has only 14 months of publication but so far his strength and speed feats are similar to his preboot self.
He also has shown that he retains super endurance and durability on similar levels.
Taking hits from Darkseid, being immune to poison that paralyzes humans by touch, tanking electircity, cold and heat, being bulletproof and surviving a collapsing ancient temple falling on his spine.
Furthermore he has now established the super leaping as a more frequent power and wields an indestructible weapon that was able to pierce Darkseid's skin. And he also seemed faster than the Talons on land, and they have enhanced speed and agility.
And he has superhuman hearing and vision.
He also has made the strategy for JL against DS and Cheetah, and found Grave's weakness.
Bottom line given time, I think NuAQ will be far more impressive.
