it was a very short distance, though, is all i'm saying.

Well I did a little research, and an average cruise ship weighs about 60-120 tons.
So its not near 500 ton strength
where did you read that? cruise liners weigh thousands of tons.

Aquaman has shown superspeed on land before.
More recently in JL 15 vs WW.And his most recent lifting feat is the ocean liner in JL
These ships weigh in excess of 100000 tons.
I think AQ can take current Mags if he is at the level suggested in this thread
http://drbj.hubpages.com/hub/Worlds-Largest-Cruise-Ship--Review
225,282 tons.
Worlds largest cruise ship
But the average is 60000-120000 tons
So yeah its right around class 100 strength(assuming its an average size cruise ship)

I'm not sure where you got that number. That would be 200000000 lbs.
There have been nine or more new cruise ships added every year since 2001, all at 100,000 GT or greater
Aquaman is lifting a ship like the Costa Concordia that capsized last year. The issue was a refference to that.
The Costa Concordia weighs 114,137 GTons
Info for the weights from wikipedia

People need to understand its not just AM Strength but his speed and fighting skills he can beat or put up a great fight with most now on the other hand mags got rang and shields plus he can suck the iron out his blood and yes rip his atoms apart but its good to see people ain't just writing AM off ass easily any more on these forums

PR I agree the distance was not so big, but the speed shown is very fast. Fast enough to tackle WW after she attacks him from behind (with the lasso). Even if AQ can only use bursts of speed like that, it's still a huge advantage in every fight, especially against opponents who are slower.
you'd have to quantify "very fast" though 😛
Originally posted by yaadaveyaayes mags got the durability edge. Still AM ain't going down from just 5 cars thrown on him. Now if mags got crazy, and slam a cruise ship on him on land then AM is out. Fight is 50 miles from water so.....
yea mags is far more powerful here if there is any metal anywhere close am dies

Fast enough to tackle a non surprised WW and crash her through the docks. That's good enough I think. Given WW's speed I'd say it's faster than most non flying "bricks". The artwork with the way the water is split makes it seem almost instantaneous.
