Really? I always saw Namor with his Imperius Sex as more of a dick, maybe my dick tolerating levels (snigger) are higher than others.
What made people here think of him as a dick? There WAS the whole 'Atlantis is more important than you surface dwelllers' thing, but the rest of the JLA admitted that they agreed with him on this.

Pretty much.I never understood why people think Diana is a hypocrite or overly preachy; having ready hundreds upon hundreds of WW comics, I never got that impression, not as a whole and definitely not on the average. And Superman's boyscout schtick is also exaggerated, as well. He's a good guy, but for the past couple of decades, he's never hesitated to show someone what's what.
Yea, it's people who look at the series from a distance and get the wrong impression.
I mean, in the past I've seen Captain America get some of that too.
I think it's something that strikes any character who's something of an icon and who's schtick is partially to inspire others. Just because they're actually doing it by example and treat pretty much everyone as equals, doesn't change some people want to see them as out-of-touch idealists or preachers who tell people what to do.

Or rather more, "The whole of the oceans is very important!".
Honestly I could see Aquaman doing it.
Bare minimum in a Eric Masterson situation.

👆Someone like Silver Surfer, a noble being who is a pacifist at heart cannot lift the hammer. Ben Grimm, a human being with one of the greatest hearts in comicdom (albeit flawed) also can't lift the hammer.
I'd rather see the Venn diagram of the common traits shared by those who can lift it.
Sounds like Hawkman might be able to lift it.

Well, those who have lifted it is a very short list, and most of them are very similar to Thor in many respects.
And some of them can for reasons other than worthiness (I.e. Odin can override the enchantment that determines who's worthy).

Originally posted by Q99I know, I know, I just don't think listing who fails to be worthy for reasons X, Y or Z helps narrow down the list of who actually could pull it off.

No, but I wasn't comparing the two now was I?but Superman has beat the warrior Thor in the Avengers/JLA crossover so guess he is a warrior ;p
Like I said Thor is a better warrior. Superman's a very good warrior just not up to Thor's standards imo.
