It's funny: fights that havent been done yet on this site largly fall under two headers: those that are super one sided (this fight) and fights that actually have been done, just one or more of the characters is in a different state (i.e. supes vs hulk, kc supes vs flash. ect...)
This fight wasnt responded to for a while because its not even a fight. Due to GL's range, this is about as difficult as if a guy with a gun attacked him. It's possible that he gets shot, but it's also possible that he trips on his way down some stairs and dies. get my point?
Aquafan, I suggest you learn about aquaman or anyone you plan to pit him against in the future. thank you.
Aquaman is extremely powerful .....after all the guy has a whole lot of super-strength (extremely high, the problem is that it pales when compared to Superman/WonderWoman/MartianManhunter), he has very powerful telepathic abilities (the problem is they pale compared to Martian Manhunter's), is extremely fast (but a statue compared to the Flash and Supes/WW/MM), and has a large amount of magic (but the problem is he has to use it for benevolence or else he will unleash the 'hunger,' which can very well destroy Atlantis and the world). He is also has advanced senses (for example he can see in near-dark and hear the slightest sounds .....something one rarely sees shown in the newer Aquaman comics ....but then again those powers pale when compared to the sensory powers of Supes and MM, and even Batman can see in the dark through his tech).
Aquaman is also quite resilient with a good amount of invulnerability, but then again that pales when compared against the likes of Superman and Martian Manhunter.
There lies the problem with Aquaman .....he is an EXTREMELY powerful guy (his telepathy alone, if he was in Marvel, would make him one of the more powerful telepaths .....and if you add his strength, his magic, his speed, his resilience, his fighting ability, his sense ....what you would have is either an very powerful friend or a very dangerous foe).
HOWEVER, Aquaman has the problem of being an extremely powerful character who is in a GROUP made of characters that are beyond extreme.
Aquaman may be a Lamborghini Murcielago, but the rest of the JLA are freakin' supersonic fighter JETS.
Thus he pales, even THOUGH he is an extremely capable character, and in the Marvel Universe would truly shine.
Anyways, Aquaman versus Kyle.
Well, unless there is a fair amount of PIS/CIS, then Kyle will win ....and win easy.
The only way Aquaman could win is if Kyle came within range of physical attacks, in which case Aquaman could basically crush his head with one hand.
However for that to happen GL would have to land, go up to Aquaman,and not defend himself.
The other way would be through telepathy.
Aquaman can mess someone up real bad (and real quick), but then again this requires 'cooperation' from GL.
IF Kyle doesn't want to he will not be within range .....note that Aquaman's telepathy, while VERY strong, is NOT Martian Manhunter strong.
Anyways, Kyle wins this.
As I said, Aquaman has many abilities .....but one doesn't match a sportscar, even a super-fast one like the McLaren F1, against a military fighter-jet.
Thus: Kyle 10/10

He actually has a faccet of comics named after this-The Aquaman Effect. Oddly, it can be applied to Superman too-His own, considerable detective skills pale compared to Batman's and MM's.
wow... I am glad of that long post, Spetz. I really didnt realize that Aquaman was so powerful, and completely underrated him. In fact, had I not seen your arguement for why he still loses, I might have voted for him.
I think also, that if Aquafan knows his guy as well as Spetz, which I somehow doubt... then I should apologiz to him, for I sort of told him off a bit, and was wrong. So, assuming that you are truly a good fan, I apologize.
(Damn!! Second day back here, and I'm already apologizing for things.. wow...)
