Written by JASON AARON
Penciled by JOHN ROMITA JR.

I'm a big fan of John Romita Jr.and this looks like his best work since his his run with J. Michael Straczynski on The Amazing Spider-Man (and perhaps more recently with Mark Millar on Kick-Ass 2). Who do you guys think will come out on top in the battle between Namor and Luke Cage? Sound off with your thoughts below.

I really wish they had someone else doing the artwork for this series. Mike Deodato, Adi Granov, or Leinil Franics Yu would've been a better fit for AvX.

Anyhow, Luke Cage vs Namor..............Luke better be pretty creative if he's going up against Namor.

GUSTO

Yeah, I disagree on the art.
But, Marvel Aquaman clearly shall be victorious here.


You do know that Namor made his debut 2 years before Aquaman, right?

Sage it's Gusto, he doesn't care...

As for this fight, Namor should completely dominate him.

UNLESS! Unless Namor is playing a more Villain Role. Cause Marvels villains love to get beat up. And when Namor is saving the day he can walk through a transdimensional force field that would tear Colossus to pieces but when he's a villain he get k.o'd by She-Hulk....

Unless this fight is taking place in a desert, Luke Cage is about to catch a beating!

@Gusto
Luke Cage stole Namor's fish sticks. Now Cage has learned that Namor loves fish sticks so Namor must kill him to hide his secret.

The stereotypical black people can't swim joke huh @loganaspatch? That's crazy because I'm black and have been swimming since I was 3. Nice way to show your idiocy. Hick.

Should be a cool fight, i think. Going with Namor, but i think it would be a better match up than people think.

I'm lost. How and when did Namor join X-Men?

Meh, I don't care for jrjr. They should have gotten someone like Steve Mcniven to do an event like this. Also, I like Cage, but namor would win, especially since he's in water.
