The Thing vs Aquaman (New 52)

[Sung Hi Lee]

The Thing




Abilities

Rock-like Skin
Superhuman Strength*
Superhuman Stamina
Superhuman Durability

[Show spoiler]Superhuman Strength: Superhuman Strength: The Thing's primary superhuman power is his great physical strength. Initially, he was only strong enough to lift about 5 tons. Over the years, through rigorous training and further mutation, his strength dramatically increased to the point where he could lift roughly 85 tons. He has continued to exercise over the years using special equipment designed by Reed Richards. It is believed his strength has increased further, sufficient to lift at least 100 tons , and will continue to do so as a future version of the Thing states. However, The Thing has shown multiple feats of strength that would require a strength level far in excess of the ability to lift 100 tons such as successfully holding back a giant alien spacecraft from jettisoning from Earth, lifting an oil rig and stopping a multiple story building (weighing roughly 30,000 tons) from falling over and lifting it back into place.

[Show spoiler]Superhuman Strength: Strength: Aquaman possesses superhuman strength on the order of 150 times human maximum (assuming a human max of 750 lbs, meaning approximately 60 tons) while on dry land and not surffering from extreme dehydration. His strength is oftentimes underrated, considering the company that he keeps (Superman, Captain Marvel, Martian Manhunter, etc). His strength is more than a match for most common barriers such as wood, common metals, brick or concrete walls. Only steel reinforced barriers have a serious chance of slowing him for any length of time. Aquaman frequently displays various feats of Super-Atlantian (the average Atlantian can lift/press approximately 1 ton) and thus, superhuman strength. While not on par with Superman or Captain Marvel, he has proven capable of performing standing high jumps of 4 stories (both on land and from water), lifting and throwing a tank (at least 25 tons). His strength level increases considerably depending on how saturated he is, or when he is immersed in water. While underwater, Aquaman has proven capable of lifting a considerable chunk of a city block in Sub-Diego (which would weigh several hundred tons), and has proven capable of shifting an oil rig platform which would weigh a few hundred tons as well.

[Show spoiler]Superhuman Reflexes: While no super-speedster, Aquaman's reflexes are superior to even exceptional metahumans such as Deathstroke the Terminator, and are on the order of 12-15 times faster than a normal human. Aquaman is obvilusly an accomplished swimmer, whose stroke form and efficiency is easily superior to any human Olympic level athlete.

[Show spoiler]Marine Telepathy: Marine Telepathy: Aquaman has the ability to communicate directly with sea life and has done so throughout most of his life. Lately he possesses a greater range of control that can actually force sea creatures to obey his whims. Currently, he requests their assistance and they comply. He has chosen to continue to request since, if he forces them to comply, they will ultimately lose respect for him. He now also has access to a quantum field phenomenon called "the Clear". "The Clear" quantum phenomenon has been observed with the subject called the Swamp Thing who called it the Green or the Morphogenic Field of Animal Man (also called the Red). Aquaman is also an accomplished telepath in general and can perform such telepathic feats as mind to mind communication, mind probes, mental domination of a non-aquatic mind, and mental attacks. The potency of such mental domination is unclear but he has been seen to use his powers to great effect against the White Martians and Doctor Polaris.

Weaknesses

Water Deprivation*

[Show spoiler]Water Deprivation: Once he is dehydrated, his abilities will rapidly diminish, and more than 24hrs without contact with water will completely debilitate him.

Aquaman.

He's more stronger, more faster and a better overall fighter than the thing.
