Aquaman vs. Sebastian Shaw

AM gets his Trident

Who wins?

Shaw. F*ck the trident.

Seriously, the guy absorbed strike of Herc's magic sword and resisted Wolvie's claws well enough to keep fighting.

Aquaman TPs him.

...

Be serious, please.

Besides, if a top telepath like Emma had trouble, AM sure as hell isn't doing shit.

Aquaman stomps.

I thought when she got serious, she spanked him...

She succeeded in the last moment.

Resisting a telepath of her calibre means he won't even feel Aquaman's tiny penis in his head.

Namor physically swatted Shaw aside. Aquaman would do the same.

Shaw is uber, but his ability to absorb physical attacks has always been very finite.

Namor is more powerful than Aquaman. And it was a low (fractioned 😖hifty: ) showing, imho.

Aquaman throws around full-sized ocean liners like they're weightless, and can rock Superman with his punches. IF he's less powerful than Namor, the difference is marginal, imo-- and for what it's worth: his Trident is also capable of injuring Darkseid to a degree.

Oh, and that is not the only time Shaw has been harmed/incapacitated by physical attacks. Mags overloaded Shaw's ability to absorb kinetic energy when he dropped a bunch of metal on him, for example.

I'm supposed to be impressed? C'mon, Namor's broken the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak, stalemated the Hulk several times, supported Utopia, tossed ships also.

Yeah, Mags did that to him. That and the Namor fight are probably his lowest showings ever.

D.C. has only recently tried to transform flipper into some sort of bad ass without explanation. Namor on the other hand has always been a bad ass.

Fact is: he has been overloaded by physical attacks more than once. There is absolutely no reason for me to think that he can soak punches of this magnitude at his standard levels:

No. He's got a few other showings that are much lower. However, there's no reason to downplay Shaw here.

What showings?

Supernuman also had his lip bleeding from VenomBat's punch. Aquanu needs more than a few good showings to be given a win in this match.

Back to Namor for a sec, unlike Aquanu he has flight and is 100% bulletproof. Might be details, but he used flight to charge at Shaw. Can achieve pretty great speed.

VenomBat was also flying, dude. He made no sense at all.

Who cares about bulletproofness? Namor owned Shaw with a hit that merely sent him flying across the room. Magneto owned Shaw by dropping a heap of metal on him. Given AM's feats, it amazes me that you don't think he is also capable of such.

Worst case scenario: Aquaman simply throws Shaw far enough from the battlefield to constitute a forum win:
