This is actually a pretty interesting fight.
DCnU Apollo got a bit of a push but Wonder Man is still a lot more powerful currently. On the flip side, he is a pacifist now and doesn't want to fight.
Namor is way stronger then either Apollo, particularly the Wildstorm incarnation, and would basically tear him to pieces but he's vulnerable to an extent to extreme heat which Apollo can unleash. However, a powerful blast of that nature extremely drains Apollo and Namor can be pretty resistant when he needs to be.
I'm conflicted. Is the fight near water? If Wonder Man is pissed and fighting? Although that's probably unfair because Simon can probably solo without much fuss.

Fight takes place in New York City.
In the pic...Namor has his wet suit on. Apollo has been stated as being one of the most powerful being on the planet but he hasn't shown anything. With that said...either Namor or Wonderman can solo this. Unless Golgo know of some fts from Apollo that I am unaware of?
Love the character and can't wait until they do more with him but he loses badly here.
All comments are about WS version:
Assuming he has a normal charge, he's covered the entire moon with heat vision and been none the worse for wear. His supposed lack of sustainability is wildly overstated. As long as he doesn't start drained and the fight is somewhere outside, he's fine.
He's also wrecked space stations the size of a continent and can easily exist in the heart of the sun. In a canon crossover, he also no-sold blasts from Cpt. Atom and cracked his outer shell with heat vision.
Am I missing something here? Did Namor get a recent powerup? WS Apollo is in a different league than Namor.
Wonder Man would be a more interesting matchup, but I don't know enough for certain to comment on he and Apollo's battle.

(Apollo is right at the beginning)

He didn't completely destroy that continent sized space station but he looked to me to destroy a country sized section.

I think Apollo would down Namor with heat then its between him and Wonderman.
I agree. That's why people like Nightcrawler can beat Classic Juggernaut. That's why Captain America can knock out Hulk and Carnage can take out Silver Surfer? Makes perfect sense, we base things off of 1 time showings. Ignore the time Namor took on the entirety of the Fantastic Four or one shot koed thing. AVX is the prime source. With that said...since Wonderman has been taken out by Green Goblin and Thing did well against Namor...team loses 20/20.

Lol...Namor is a high Class 100 and his strength fts outweighs Apollos.

Is Apollo amped in this fight? If so, you created a spite thread? Let me know. If he flies off to the sun, thats a self bfr.
