Which Hyperion is the most powerful one?

yeah by feats that one was likely the most powerful by a pretty fair margin.

That one was stalemated by Namor until he used his heat vision to cut Namor's head off. In my opinion King Hyperion would likely break even with him.

1) Hyperions use atomic vision, not heat vision.

2) Namor is insanely powerful --- he has fought the Hulk like two dozen times, always stalemating or even beating him.

Nobody else in the Marvel Universe has such a great track record against Banner. Not counting Surfer, as he cheats.

You do know that Blue Marvel beat Namor by Namor's admittance right?

So let's make a tally.

Blue Marvel defeated King Hyperion, and Namor.

Namor stalemated the current Hyperion physically up until he used his Atomic Vision to sever Namor's head.

It seems to me that they all should be in the same weight class under Blue Marvel who should technically be above them all based on his winning streak against King Hyperion, and Namor who is strong enough to hold his own in a purely physical match against the current Hyperion.

Yes this is ABC logic, but sometimes it works if the evidence supports the assumption.

If it were a tournament to decide the champion is where I was going with the notion BTW Stilt.

Read the comic first, post on forums later.

The "stalemate" was a mere ruse by Squadron Supreme, as revealed by Nighthawk in the same issue.

I did read it. I know about the ruse. This still doesn't remove the fact that Hyperion was trying to defeat Namor. Or what are you saying? Hyperion was pulling his punches? I mean what are you saying?

Hyperion allowed Namor to think he dealt with him --- Nighthawk explains it in painful detail:

Their little foreplay shouldn't be used as proof of any kind.

The whole thing was personal for Squadron Supreme and they planned their revenge well. Namor played right into their hands.

They wanted Namor to be punished and witness destruction of his city before killing him.

Like I said, I know the full details of the plot. Hyperion never had to drag the fight out because he could've severed Namor's head at any time during the confrontation. What I'm saying and I'll reiterate, is that Namor is fully capable of going toe to toe with the current Hyperion as long as it remains physical without energy projection.

On a side note, Namor was able to last against the Sentry as well without being KO'd, albeit we could see that Sentry was dominant, but he appeared to be as stable as he was when he crushed Terrax.

So to conclude my guesstimation, I think that there isn't much that separates three or four Hyperions. Squadron Sinister Hyperion, King Hyperion, current Hyperion, and the Supreme Squadron Hyperion as they have all faced off against comparable opponents and did about as well.

I mentioned the Supreme Squadron Hyperion as he was a physical match for Gladiator, but was outclassed in skill.

Those would be the four that I'd pick, but I'm not entirely sure which of them would be the most powerful.
