Originally posted by Grimm22He did fight Kako, his former lover-turned fire elemental. I'd say she was a good deal stronger than Human Torch seeing as she was able to stay on fire, and fight underwater. It was a pretty inconclusive fight though.
Besides its not like Aquaman is used to fighting fire guys.
If the fight takes place near water, i see Aquaman heading for it straight away. Orin can control the water via his hand, so he'll be able to bring that into play offensively. The hand can also heal and keep Orin hydrated. Torch would have to unleash a very large amount of power to take Aquaman out in one hit. Even then, if Torch goes for that Aquaman could control the water to become a shield.
If Aquaman goes in for close quarters, he only needs to get a good hit in to take Torch out. Dangerous though, if Torch goes nova while Aquaman's up close that's it. I see Aquaman using his water control to distract Torch while he gets in close and lands a hit.
Plus Aquaman's got his TP, and his more obscure water hand powers that could give him an easy win.

... except for the first three paragraphs.
Originally posted by Grimm22True. There is one possible way for Aquaman to defend against Torch going Nova though. One of the more obscure of the Water Hand's abilities, he can create portals to and from the Water Spirit Realm. He could protect himself from the blast by shunting what he needs to into the portal.
Well considering that his nova blast goes up to around 3 million degrees or more, I would have to say that yeah its going to evaporate.

😱
Holy Crap!
Since when does a hand made of water make anyone this powerful?
Jeese, no wonder he trumped Namor
