Swimming contest. Aquaman vs Namor.

Who is faster underwater?
Who is stronger underwater (can lift/move more things)?

DCNU Aquaman.

StiltmanFTW
Namor

According to The Lame Unadventures of Aquaman, Arthur is below average swimmer.

Stilt your borderline going creepy with your aquaman posts

On topic. Aquaman has the faster swimming feats. Namor has higher strength feats underwater

You're just mad because Lame Unadventures series is 100% canon.

Aquaman's speed is 100mph/1,000 knots approximately

while Namor can only swim at 60mph/300 knots

It's at least 347% canon, surely.

Namor held up an island (mutant utopia)

Aquaman lifted an entire city block with high rise buildings

No. Definitely underwater. Mostly offpanel, but Namor emerges from the water and asks if mutants have any more islands to support...

But he did it though. Does anyone have that scan where Namor say he shake planets during fist fights?

riv6672
Ah, so hyperbole from a character discounts his feats?
Tough luck for Wolv "i'm the best there is..." Ine and Jugger "nothing can stop..." Ernaut, and dozens of other shameless self promoters. laughing out loud

In terms of the race Arthur. His best feat was to outrace a concord across the Atlantic. I can't think of any feat of Namor's that's even close.

Strength definitely goes to Namor. In avengers 4 or 5 he physically matched boy Hulk and Thor for a while (short while but still)

Pre DCnU, Arthur traveled 20,000 f/s. That's 22,000km/hr. He got the bends saving Kyle, but he did it.

He also got the bends for going straight up and didn't decompress. If he went horizontal and did that in a constant pressure I believe he would have been fine.

Doesn't that scan specify that he's moving at 10,000 f/s?

I remember the feat, but it looks like they're estimating that Aquaman would have to take at least 2 seconds to complete the depth to air leap.

You could interpret it that way - they never actually give a time for Aquaman's journey from 20,000 feet to the surface. I read it as 'our projections say he could do X, so now we're forcing him to do X+Y, and it will take him out of the picture'.

-K-M-
Yes the 10,000 feet was them saying he could do that speed safely.

Except namor has done that before when he faced behemoth,they registered planetary scale seismic earthquakes.

Oh btw,I believe namor stopped and pulled a city sized ship of doom underwater once,he has also lifted up hydrobase and he lifted utopia island outside the water. Those are the good strength feats off the top of my head though

-K-M-
How does one lift an island outside of water?

Branlor Swift
Put the island on land
