There are multiple versions of Aquarian. I'm using the one with the Null Field. Not his "Wundarr" form (which lacks the null field but has boosted superhuman stats). Writers jumped back and forth between them a lot.

1) In the instance where he was choked out, it was against a CL100 being (see him stomp the West Coast Avengers till they found his weakness) and this is AFTER he caught his punch and tried to reason with him. Aquarian (during the time) was a pacifist.

2) I'm not familiar with the Captain America instance. You got scans or context?

3) The Deadpool Aquarian bit didn't have the Null Field. This was during the Marvel Zombies event no? This takes place AFTER Quantum mindphucked Aquarian and reverted him to Wundarr and forever more screwed with this powers.

1. He negated Nth Man. A class 100 guy is nothing compared to that. Moreover, pacifist or not, it shows Aquarian with anull field is still capable of being choked out. And its pretty quick to do so. Strength levels are inconsequential, due to point two below...
2. Was when they were going to get the Cosmic Cube. Energy above a certain threshold gets nullified, not before.
3. Deadpool even remarks on his null field. Hey, NICE NULL FIELD!

Yes, because he was trying to reason with him. Quantum was only able to choke him out because Aquarian was shocked that Quantum spoke his language. I'd post the scan but I don't care enough at this point to go digging through my Quasar issues.

This was after the Quantum incident (where Aquarian's powers were forever in flux). I'm not the only one who sees it this way :

I'm not sure what Aquarian's current status quo is. Even after he was reverted to his Wundarr persona/appearance/abilities by Quantum, he had a few appearances where he seemed to be completely back to being the Aquarian, including the major part in Spider-Man Team-Up#6. The in Marvel Zombies 3#1 and Avengers: The Initiative#19, he seems to be firing energy blasts...he's definitely doing it in MZ3. In his original Wundarr state, he couldn't fire energy blasts, but perhaps his mind just wasn't developed enough to realize her could do that.
Further, in MZ3, his field doesn't protect him from a diving attack by Deadpool, and when he does generate the field, it is a solid field against which Deadpool's sword shatters. After fighting off Deadpool, he then speaks in the third person, calling himself Wundarr, and then uses a previously unseen healing power to purge the virus.
The only explanation I have is that the reversion by Quantum changed his nature somewhat, leaving him to fluctuate between full Aquarian status, full Wundarr status, and some hybrid, with some degree of energy manipulation and adult intelligence.

And he didnt' say Null Field, he said FORCE field :

1. I've already posted them. Whilst he was shocked, fact remains he was still choked out, really quickly. Proving his brain needs oxygen, and you can stop it.
2. I do, will post it later.
3. He was still using a null field in later issues; ill try and dig them up.

My point still stands, though. He needs to consciously expand it, which takes time. Meanwhile, he will be starved of oxygen.

You don't have to. I believe you. I just pointed out that his powers were in flux (aka writers were all over the place) after his second encounter with Quantum. But in THIS specific instance (Marvel Zombies 3), he for sure didn't have it. So this showing can't be used against him.

I always thought it was just the writers getting confused, as they always do....especially with niche characters.

He was full Aquarian mode at this time (later in the story, he nullifies blasts from a weak Cosmic Cube).

Energy below a certain threshold (chokeholds, grips etc) can still work. They just need to be (relatively) weak:

bump

Classic Black Cat. Flash takes off, trips, and his momentum takes him out of the ring resulting in a self BFR.

Longshot

Rutog/2damnloud Storm something something solar winds something something drops stars from the heavens to engulf the Earth. Storm Storm Storm.

Grandmaster

Bloodlusted Martian Manhunter

Hydroman.

Puddle to slip on = auto-win.
