Aquaman did this:For example...
that was also a weaken version of Superboy which side arm was able to put in a bear hug and Dragon Lady was able to fight superboy in melee..

I could post Spiderman throwing down with Firelord which would be far above Superboy or any other hundred tonners he has faced in the past.

What about being underwater?
Aquaman has plenty of feats showing him in the dozens of tons range, though.
Originally posted by -Pr-Superboy was panicked by being underwater and not being able to breath. his durability was completely dependent on his TK at that time and his concentration and being awake.

there was nothing impressive about the scan u posted it was more bias than anything b/c Aquaman might as well have bn punching a regular human or someone with low superhuman durability if u put it all in context.
here let me help u.

sure Aquaman has his dozen ton range feats but so does spiderman and i am willing to go on a limb and say Spiderman has more of them that easily put him above if not equal to Aquaman and his feats

Even if you wanted to argue that (though I don't agree), he still has feats I think Spider-Man would have trouble replicating.
Like using a crane as a bludgeoning tool, or knocking Martian Manhunter on his ass (twice), lifting a city block, throwing a bus at an Omac, supporting the weight of a building that was about to collapse, and the other stuff i mentioned of course.
Aquaman's strength is relatively more consistent than Spider-Man's, too.

really, b/c Spiderman has beaten firelord, fought the Hulk, held up a collapsing building more than once, flipped over a mini tank.. held up a rail train and tons of other strength feats in his long time career.
I'm talking about consistency, though.
And we both know Firelord doesn't count.
We're not even talking about who would win in a fight; we're talking about pound for pound physical strength, and for me, Aquaman is stronger.

Originally posted by -Pr-Spider-man has actually done teh exact same stuff. Except maybe the crane thing.

He's done all of that?
And again, this isn't everything Aquaman has done. That was just examples.
and then there's the fact that a lot of his strength feats are actually performed underwater, where pressures are far different to above sea-level.
Originally posted by Nietzschean
I never understood the whole underwater argument. I mean sure it can increase weight to an extend but it can also lighten an object as well.. : /besides Spiderman has underwater lifting feats as well..
It's harder to move your muscles underwater, because of the pressure being exerted on you from the ocean around you. Ever feel the resistance when you run your hand across a pool of water? Imagine that times a thousand, and then apply it to Aquaman having to lift large objects while fighting hundreds of tons of pressure trying to stop him.
