hmm, we have very different opinions of manta methinks. i could see cage soloing this, maybe danny as well with his speed. together i think this is pretty much a stomp. has manta ever really gone against or beaten anyone of note other than hanging in there with aquaman? i've just always had the impression arthur holds back against him, like when spidey punches doc ock in the face for example.
I think Manta is more durable than he is strong but, at the same time, his punches do hurt Arthur, and if Arthur'd be that much stronger than him, the fights would never turn look like slugfests mixed with weapons. How much? Well, the best range I got is depowered Superman grappling with him: https://imgur.com/YZ4NPXn

All the times that I have seen Manta go 1 on 1 with Arthur Arthur has won pretty easily. However theres no shame in losing to a guy that has at least class 80 strength, superhuman speed, reflexes and does have fighting skill. However Manta is clearly highly skilled I've seen him take out a prison guard (this was in a metahuman prison) casualy with a coin and take down highly trained guards pretty much with ease. I just haven't seen him gone up against somebody like Batman.

Well, he fought Deathstroke and *apparently* did pretty good.
I skimmed through the scans back when the comic got released, but don't remember exactly how it went. So you might want to ask someone to re-post them.
Cage should be able to wade through that pathetic optic blast of his and punch a hole through him, imo.
Well based on what I've seen I would bet he should be able to put up a fight against Batman but that's it. Clearly wouldn't make sense to put him on the same level.
