Namor the Sub-Mariner vs. Rom the Space Knight

😄 Can Namor defend planet earth 🌎?

Funnily enough, this is a great match up. Rom wins.

Namor would beat the life out of Rom. I like Rom, but he's not in Namor's weight class. This isn't to say that he isn't a threat, it's just that when you compare their run-ins with the Hulk, Namor did far better. Rom would be a great match for Darkhawk, or others from the Fraternity of Raptors imo.

When you do that, then Namor almost has no equal and can easily trash Thor & Hercules at the same time.

Namor is, and has always been a threat to either though. I'd give him the edge over Herc these days with Hydroman's powers giving him the buff. Physically, he'd push either of them pretty hard. Thor is up in the air though, because of his new station, which should easily place him well above Namor, or Hercules.

Being a threat is one thing. That's not what I said.

He hasn't mastered Hydroman's powers, it's a basic form of hydrokinesis at this point.

It's his other amps that made the difference in his recent tussle with the Avengers.

I don't believe that Namor is above Hercules, or Thor (before the Odin power). It wouldn't be impossible for him to win, just that he'd have a helluva fight on his hands. Thor's lightning attacks would buff him, and Hydroman's powers would keep him from weakening over time. Because Namor isn't as long lived as either Asgardians, or Olympians, the longer the fight took the worst off it would be for him, as they don't tire at the same rate that he does. He could win, but they could as well. At least well written versions of them.

Team books tend to make the members of the team more vulnerable than in solo appearances. Just wanted to put that out there. Anyway, gotta crash, working a 12 tonight 🙁

Exactly.

That's why your ABC logic is flawed in this thread.

An injured Rom fights a fresh Gladiator, who can't put him down and has to be saved from Roms Neutralizer which is haxx.

Yup 👍 this guy gets it

Also, to put a more modern spin on things....Ikon embarrassed the Annihilators, and said in the same showing Rom was mightier than her.

Just a bit of supplementary info.

Beautiful scans, Whirly.

Does Stoic still want to use his ABC logic? 😂

Isn’t current Namor amped above the one who fought Ikaris in Annihilators

As a wee child I had a Rom the Space Knight toy and it came with a comic book and I loved both. So he wins.

On average, Namor.

I have a question about the battle between Rom and Gladiator. In a real unscripted forum battle, would Gladiator punch him once, and stand there startled after Rom, or any opponent got back up on their feet? One punch severely damaged Rom. What would 20 or 30 do?
