Aquaman vs. Carnage

And that would do what exactly? Fighting Carnage up close would likely be a bad move for Aquaman with those tendrils having the longer reach. How does Aquaman find him when he digs into the sand of the shore that the battle takes place at, all the while Carnage could be surrounding him, and readying to attack and put those tendrils in every viable opening on his body? Carnage is also plenty strong, fast, and agile.

So you want us to give Carnage the benefit of the doubt, but not Aquaman?

Throw his trident, or use it's blasting powers if it still has them.

I don't know, by communicating with the hundreds of creatures that live in sand, and using them to figure out? Or by telepathy? Or with his insanely enhanced hearing?

Aquaman is a several dozen tonner. He's durable enough to take shots from Wonder Woman and still remain conscious. Aquaman is plenty agile.

Why won't Arthur's telepathy work on Carnage?

Didn't the symbiotes have tp resistance?

I don't know, hence my question.

Not sure why his TP wouldn't work on Carnage, but why wouldn't Carnage be able to use his tendrils to slip into any viable opening on Aquaman's body? Why wouldn't Carnage be able to take over Aquaman's mind? If they fought up close and personal, Carnage would have the advantage of many tendrils, and projectiles, while also being able to camouflage himself. he also seems to be able to lift several dozen tons, after all he took on Venom and Spiderman, and tossed them about like five pound dumbbells.

I honestly have always thought that Aquaman would have a difficult time with an opponent like Carnage, because of his ability to become nearly permeable, and absorb a lot of the energy of his punches due to the symbiote. If Carnage coverd him with it, it wouldn't take long before Aquaman's defenses were compromised, because although his skin may be durable, I doubt that his inner organs are.

I don't know.

How does he take over someone's mind?

Projectiles would need to be pretty powerful to put down Arthur.

Camouflage? What kind of camouflage? Given that Arthur can see in the dark and can hear heartbeats from a distance, it would have to be pretty good.

Tossing around Spider-Man means he can toss around several dozen tons?

Arthur's primary method of attack is the trident or punches, yes, but his "telepathic shockwave" is just as used.

Arthur's entire body is equally durable. It's how he can survive at such insane depths.

I'm by no means a Carnage expert, so if there's a way he's going to beat Arthur for a majority, then so be it.

what is carnage best strength feat?

Just check out his new ongoing and see how he has the ability to take over people.

He took on Venom and Spiderman with relative ease. they even grabbed an arm each, so he's not weak by far. He may not be as strong as Aquaman, but I don't think that he is far behind him.

have you ever seen how venom can seemingly vanish into thin air? Well I believe that the symbiote can bend light beyond anything that modern science is capable of.

Digging into the sand and moving below Aquaman is another trick that Carnage is capable of doing, as well as sending tendrils through it to capture his prey. Taking Cletus' character into account, he wouldn't hesitate in killing Arthur, he is after all a serial killer.

The Trident could cause problems, but as we saw when Venom fought Juggernaut, these guys are very resistant to blunt force damage, I think the alien is able to absorb a lot of the energy of attacks of this nature.

I'm not giving Carnage the win, but many people called this a stomp in Arthurs favor, and I just never did. I believe that a well written Carnage would give Aquaman nightmares, even if he lost.

I meant the actual process involved. 😛

Ah, ok.

can he block his sounds?

i don't see how the sand thing will hide him from aquaman, for the reasons i already stated.

the trident isn't blunt force. 😛

When I return from work I'll see if I can post some scans of Carnage for the people that are unfamiliar with him.

Those sounds or sonics are a real problem, but Cassidy is a little different than Venom, his pain threshold is greater. He may be able to fight through it for a little bit, and unless Arthur is a good distance away, he might be able to turn the tables on him. Carnage is dangerous, you really should take a look at his new series.

When I said that Carnage has a long reach I meant it, he could dig deep into a porous substance like sand, and send the tendrils up from many meters down like wolverine popping his claws. Like I said Arthur could win, but don't sleep on Cassidy. it's kind of like Poison Ivy, she is nowhere near as strong as Aquaman, but she can put him in trouble if she wraps him up.

I may if i get the chance.

I just think Arthur might see it coming, that's all.

And Ivy would have a hard time keeping someone as strong (and telepathic) as Arthur wrapped up, tbh 😛

Symbiotes can take over peoples minds but its not exactly tp. There are examples when symbiotes took over characters that have telepathy. Also, Carnage is immune to sonic attacks. Fire is the only thing that bothers him. With Venom it is the other way around. Just wanted to clear this up.

OK, just got back so can write up a bit more.

If Carnage touches that hand, he will get dehydrated. Instantly. So going up close and personal with Aquaman using his tendrils isn't a great idea.

It also amplifies his telepathy. So he's even stronger, and as we saw, classic Carnage had Cletus still in the suit, and so, Aquaman could attack him with TP.

How does that work exactly? The dehydration thing? Im asking because im not sure how wil that work on Carnage's tentacles that are made out of symbiotic goo.

Well then I guess that they'd both get The Double Butt Shiv, because Carnage would likely be able to invade Aquaman's brain via tendril as easily as Aquaman would be able to perform the hand dehydration maneuver. Can you see it? Mysterious voice from out of the blue says, ready set go.... Carnage scrambles Arthur's brains, and is turned into dust. 😄
