If you give me a legit scan of something suggesting he's immune to lightning or any format of electrical attacks I'll take away that option for a win. Even then there's fire ignition, entrapment in water, and BFR.
The always thing is a bit cheaper of a stretch given having been struggling against Thing underwater in AVX, Injured pretty well by Panther in Time Runs Out arc, Consistently struggles with Stark who has to Don special armor to fight Hulk and having been one spotted by Thor in the rain before.
At most he's a tier or 2 below Thor and Hulk which physically isn't enough.

Yeah, but who's he beaten? Hulk and Iron Man? Those two are the biggest jobbers in Marvel..Namor's always been a jobber to the stars. Thor, Logan, Black Panther and Cage have all handled him. He even struggled against Lei Kung the Thunderer and a Danny clone..
Utterly ridiculous statement. How the hell are Hulk and Ironman "jobbers?"

Yep because questioning the validity of Namor being able to hang with modern Odinson and Banner Hulk now isn't common sense it's just being biast against the Marvel company. Whereas using classic scans to suggest where the character scans is legit A+ level argument wise. It's irrelevant if he can hang with Thor or Hulk anyways he still doesn't have enough physical force as the equivalent of Superman and Wonder Woman together which Orm has held back with Hydrokinesis.
There for the ridiculously probably 4th or 5th time of a mention is BFR as well.
Also I've yet to see this fabled scan of Namor being suggested as immune to lightning of all sorts.

Yeah, but some ****tard just said Hulk was a jobber.
I'm the retard.
And it's true. Hulk jobs all the time, especially Savage Hulk era. Iron Man, Namor, the U-Foes, and even Deaths Head II gave a Hulk trouble.
The entire Rulk startup was just Greenback and everybody else getting jobbed out to the new Hulk on the block. (Proof enough that A-bomb looked better then anyone.)

Hmm. Doesnt use the words immune. I thought i came across something that said "immune" but maybe i was mistaken on that(been a while). Absorb is as good imo.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJTSvb8izXI at the 45 sec mark he mentions aborbing such power.
More times than not, Namor gets the best of Thing. Hell, they even showed Cage putting up a fight. 😬 Yea at times Stark has put up good fights, and there are times also when Namor holds back. In the scuffle they had in Illuminati, Namor would have killed Stark. I think it was Reed that saved him? Cant remember. When fully hydrated, Namor has always showed to be on par with the top of the top.
