No I didn't. I said Namor was stated to be stronger and Namor SHOWED he was faster or as fast when he punted AM out of the water into the sky. If Aquaman was faster, he would have dodged the hit. Namor took Aquaman's statement about being faster as a challenge and showed him real speed.

First off, we are not supposed to be referencing JLA/A per forum rules. Secondly, he did not KO him, he gave him a headache.

He gave Namor a headache, but he also wasnt fighting Namor he was fighting ATTUMA (and ko'ed him) and his forces. You know the character that this thread is about?

They have said in others threads canon, but not to use it as people argue about it. Regardless it's still canon. JLA/Avengers directly tied into the Trinity series in DC.

Oh you mean the part where he put his guard down and that's when he got punched?....thought so. Because when AM didn't have his guard down Namor was complaining he couldn't tag him.

- You said he KOed Namor and he didn't.

- Namor is an Atlantean/Human. This is why he was barely affected by the psi attack that KOed the fish people. I have no idea why you brought up the psi attack in the first place.

- Namor reacted faster than Aquaman could react. That's why he got hit. As far as "letting his guard down" they were talking while Namor was pursuing Aquaman. You know, because Aquaman knew Namor was stronger than him. If Aquaman was significantly faster than Namor, he would not have gotten hit because he would have moved out of the way. This is a situation in which a speed advantage would be utilized.

- Finally, AM is being compared to the CURRENT Attuma, not the one from JLA/A

Question: Why does it matter whether Namor is half human or not?

That's why he was not affected by Aquaman's psi. I didn't bring the psi attack up and I have no idea what it's relevance is to the discussion.

I don't follow. What does Namor's heritage have to do with Aquaman's psionics?

It's the difference between him and the other Atlanteans Aquaman took out with this psi.

Even though Aquaman's telepathy has long since worked on beings other than sea creatures, we're still to assume it was his heritage that was the reason?

If I'm misremembering the panel, fair enough though.

I don't know that heritage is the correct term, but the difference between Namor and Atlanteans is that he is half human. He is genetically different.

I'm not arguing that; I'm just saying it wouldn't matter, unless the writer really dropped the ball.

Ummm no I didn't, ever time I referred to JLA/Avengers was the Attuma fight. Where did I even say he ko'ed Namor?

I didn't, I brought it up against when he used it on Attuma. Like are you being serious right now? Namor isn't in this fight. Nor have I debated who would win between Namor and Aquaman as this is not what the thread is about.

haha wrong. Do you not understand what the logic behind lowering ones guard and sucking punching someone?

Finally now your talking on topic. Now prove to me his psi-resistance impoved.

Because AM used his psi attacks on Attuma....which this thread is about. Like are you being serious?

Why would his psi attack have no relevance in a fight? 😬

He did, as even Marrina who is alien (Plodex) was taken out from the psi attack.

Not necessarily IMO. Namor has boasted high TP resistance throughout his exsitence. They only answer as to why, whether we feel it it logical or not, is that he is a half breed.

Ah, the bad writing excuse. Namor wasn't taken out because is psi resistant. Consistent writing.

Attuma is class 60 while Aquman is solid class 100. AM is also faster and imo the better fighter. He wins.

Because for the third time, that Attuma is from the past and this is the current resurrected Attuma which is supposed to be Namor's equal.

At this point, I have to ask the question, have you read JLA/A, or are you going by what you heard or read?

Attuma is not class 60, he is the equal of Namor who is over class 1000 per his showings. There is no scaled class system in DC, so at best you are estimating Aquaman is class 100. Namor has always been portayed as stronger than Aquaman, so if Attuma is Namor's equal, he is stronger than Aquaman.

^Namor portrayed stronger then Aquaman? Are they in the same Universe? DCnU AM has strength feats that put him easily at CL100, that's the only thing that counts. Attuma is listed as CL60 im the Handbooks iirc.

Mungi is going to end this n00b.
