I will forgive your heresy IF you tell me who the artist is.

Why is Aquaman wearing a pineapple costume?

It's redolent of his house.

In the story he wanted to do a Thing cosplay but Superman interrupted, hence he was so pissed.

EG is THE Aquaman fan here (sorry PeRa). AND he's reasonable, if zealous.

I'm glad we have you around to make those kinds of decisions 👆

Seriously though, Mungi is the guy as much as anyone.

As far as the thread goes, I still don't see team winning. Arthur can be argued to be on Diana's level, but Superman occupies a different one altogether, Mera's more exotic powers can do damage, but I don't see them doing enough to take a win.

Mungi likes Alpha Flight too much to be considered sane.

The writer who wrote the story stated that aquaman could take on superman as could WW, and that if any of them could put superman on his back, it would be mera.He also stated that if he thought that Aquaman couldn't hang, he would not have written the story as it would be a bully type fight if one was far above the other.

Well, that's his opinion. And he should know better, considering how he actually wrote some pretty good Aquaman back in the day.

But we don't take writer interviews?

Actually it was the writer and the artist consulting with other writers about it.

Yeah....so still inadmissible.

Alan Moore claims to have met THE John Constantine. Doesn't mean he really exists.

claims to have met a character in a fictional world.

Fictional character ranking by writer.

It honestly just seems up to writer interpretation. I agree with JBL that Abnett's intent shouldn't be dismissed but regardless Abnett hasn't really given any reason for anyone to think Aquaman can hang with Superman outside of a plot fights.

His physicals are inferior.
His one ace could be have physicals enough to survive like Wonder Woman. But have his own ace. Skill, Range, Trident, Telepathy something

Superman wins.

No, Abnett's intent isn't just dismissed out of hand. The problem is that the comic needs to back up what he's saying. It doesn't, nor has any of the new 52 stuff either.

My point was, the writer can believe whatever he or she wants, but if it's not backed up by what's on panel, it's invalid.

Alan M may well and truly believe that Con John is real, and he is entitled to his opinion and belief. But we have multiple examples to the contrary, and none supporting his stance.

We do, unless they're obscure, actually.

Taking a writers opinion on who's stronger than who seems counterintuitive.

But that's different from a writer clarifying a scene he has written.
