Colossus VS Namor

Started by vansonbee5 pages

I recall Colossus having trouble dealing with Nimrod, while Namor was tearing them apart with ease.

The Sentry fight was him holding back in fights and was probably trying to talk Namor down.

I believe they met up twice. Once I think was one of those deals where it looked good for Namor because the Sentry was no longer on panel or involved in the fight (typical of a writer getting him out of the picture} and the other fight was a pretty pissed of Sentry in which Namor was powerless to even mount one offensive strike. It was a short fight and Namor was fine afterwards, but if it was allowed to continue, I doubt Namor would have lived through it.

Colossus was doing fine one on one, iirc, until they all ganged up on him.

Namor is an absolute monster.

It's Colossus who got kinda neglected in the "modern era". His best recent pure str feat is what, stopping a Sentinel from stomping on him?

Hell, as a teenager and pre-Magneto upgrade he was able to stop the Secret Wars spaceship from crashing... while injured, iirc...

Namor withstood a Vibranium knife to his heart, Black Bolt's whisper at point blank and an orbitary fall to a planet in quick succession. It all stunned him for a few seconds. 2/3 of those things would often kill anyone weaker than Wonder Woman (All 3 sometimes, even she was doubtful to survive reentry recently in JLA) to below and Namor's weakness is heat.

If you made a Namor respect thread, he's the king of relative feats for mid-heralds next to Magneto.

It was a shout, not a whisper.

And Black Bolt was still weakened iirc.

Yeah, after Whedon he doesn't have much, and even then it was mostly durability stuff.

Namor was fighting like 1, 4 or 5 ganged up on Colossus.

Most of the "senior" X-Men were doing fine, iirc, as long as they were only fighting one or two at a time.

He's got some good feats, just last year he held up a skyscraper long enough for Nightcrawler to evacuate it. He also stopped a Sentinel from trying to crush him in X-Force as stilt mentioned.

In X-Men Gold, yeah. Not what I would have thought exceptional mind you, but still decent.

Another feat that is overlooked is Hulk saying that Colossus might have been a good match for him before his World War Hulk levels.

I try not to think about that book, tbh.

Pakhulk has destroyed everyone in that event and even worse stuff happened later.

Like Dark Dimension smashed to bits 😂

X-Men performed extremely well, all things considered.

Namor

No he wasn't, he had been healed prior to that

if colossus can breathe underwater? if so , then he wins but eventually this fight will end up in the water .
- colossus hits hard but not hard enough to KO namor ,namor eventually wins , with flight and bfr namor will get him in the water and hold him there
also namor is faster .. all colossus has is durabiltiy and strenght i think colossus is a 200 tonner am i right?

Namor losing vs Thing on water was a high showing. Thing just used his Galactus toppling mode in that fight.

Namor has also oneshotted Thing on land.

He was going toe to toe with Hyperion just recently and smacked away Zarda like nothing. Colossus could only dream about such a showing.

Fighting toe to toe with Gladiator in the Blue area of the moon.
