Thor vs Aquaman [pure strength]

You should just put Phil on ignore if you don't like him this much, Newjak. In his defense, he hasn't actually directed any posts toward you in this thread. 😉

Anyhow, I really don't think this thread is childish at all -- maybe a little baitey(😛), but that's about it... And it does pose an interesting question regarding Thor's displayed lifting feats vs. Arthur's. Personally, I had always just assumed that Thor had lifted greater weights than Arthur over the years(for obvious reasons), so I am curious to see what Thor feats come to light here.

But I mean, even IF Arthur had better lifting feats than Thor, it doesn't mean he can beat him in your standard battle. /shrug

The only thing frustrating is when people pretend they don't happen. Also Galan I would be surprised that you haven't actually seen these things before either.

It's sort of flawed in that Arthur has better lifting feats than Doomsday and Darkseid. Some characters just don't lift things.

It’s tough to tell the size/scale, but according to the dialogue, that’s the largest mountain in Jotunheim.

Wait, you think Arthur's feats here are better? Interesting.

Agreed, but Thor has more appearances than Doomsday and Darkseid put together, I'd wager.

And he has a role as (one of) the Avengers' strongmen.

aquaman has better lifting feats than eternity too? Because eternity doesn't lift things

You are getting off topic,

This thread is solely comparing lifting and throwing

Using lifting feats alone to compare strength is very flawed

100% agree with this. Here's the thing though:

We all agree Thor is stronger.

The thread is asking for Thor's lifting and throwing feats, that's all.

Arthur has likely lifted greater physical weights than TOAA on panel, for example, but logic dictates that TOAA could still lift more than him.

But Thor IS someone who I would expect to have a plethora of high-end lifting feats, tbh(like the one that Khazra just posted.)

Yeah, on panel, Batman has benched more than the Living Tribunal. Got numbers and everything.

Doesn't mean diddly. And I don't know why people are so upset about it.

For a character who is supposed to be a peer to Superman (according to his fans) in strength, I thought Thor would have better feats.

Superboy has better feats than these.

You didn't like his Bengay feat...? 😖hifty:

For instance Juggernuat is one of those characters we know is really strong but the way he is written isn't to have a lot of lifting feats.

You read stories with the Juggernaut to see him run things over. You read stories with Thor to see him go God of Thunder and Lightning.

And now I don't like this thread at all. Thanks. *****.

Regardless of how you interrupt the feats the ones posted here for Thor and Aquaman are close enough for intention of why this thread was made.

I see he lifted the butt end of an ocean liner. Impressive I guess.

He flung a sub through the water surface, but he did that while pushing it first from the ocean floor for some added momentum.

He supposedly swung a huge ship at the Dead King. At the same time used it as a battering ram? Wtf? How can u swing something and describe it as a battering ram. In actuality he pushed a ship underwater towards the dead king as a battering ram. Using the word swing was an attempt to make it seem more impressive.

He supposedly triggered a volcanic eruption by collapsing a part of tectonic plates.... 😬
He threw his scepter by the lava below which triggered an eruption. He then broke off a relatively small ledge to catch the escaping trench creatures below.

And then Atlan's scepter causes earthquakes. He made the weapon specifically to sink atlantis. He didn't catch that supposed force. He caught the scepter before it hit ground and prevented it from causing the same thing. The Dead King also had a replica that does the same thing. When he hits ground, it causes some kind of geological upheaval.

Dont believe everything Abhi posts.

Thor is also written a certain way for most of his history. Just because someone has a plethora of appearances doesn't mean that those appearances will denote specific instances of things.

For instance Juggernuat is one of those characters we know is really strong but the way he is written isn't to have a lot of lifting feats.

You read stories with the Juggernaut to see him run things over. You read stories with Thor to see him go God of Thunder and Lightning.

Aquaman isn't written to be a lifter of heavy things; you read stories to see him go King of Atlantis.

Yet he seems to be holding his ownin this thread.

He threw a wooden chair that shook Asgard.

Yes and he would be holding his own against a lot of characters we know are stronger than him but have few lifting feats as well.

That's fair. But not really the point of this thread.....
