Aquaman (DC, animated) will go up against Percy Jackson (PJU).
The two of them are on an empty beach in Hawaii armed with Sword & Shield (Percy) and Trident (Aquaman) respectively.
The Son of Poseidon battles the King of Atlantis to see who is the superior master of the seas!
Who will win?
So, DCAU or DC Animated Movies?
Most of the Justice League in their animated versions are severely nerfed- Percy might stand a good chance here.
–
Has anyone here seen Young Justice btw? One of my brothers and myself just finished season 1- pretty fun show.
Eh, JL/JLU Supes, MM, and Wondy could still wreck Percy. I only remember that version of Aquaman from that one episode though. Where he cut his arm off. OP should come in soon and clarify which Animated he’s referring too.

I miss Young Justice
Nevermind. It’s animated.
The current animated Trident has some power to it.
Aquaman skin is blade resistant and Atlanteans can punch through a submarine’s hull.
@Everyone else
Hold on, this is gonna take a while, I better go stock up on Chilled out Root Beer for this.
All I’d know that’s concrete is that Styx-Enhancements or otherwise, regardless of whether or not Multi-Vitamins are involved, the versions of Aquaman in play matter here just-as-much as how well Percy’s gonna hold out.
—
Looks like I got another fight apart from Zank the Beheader vs Udo Jin-E to worry about, best make it worthwhile.
I’m in a better mood since yesterday or the day before that, since Mystical got back so I wanna be better, also anyone lives in Missouri?
More to the point, everyone else evacuated from the location of the fight?
It’d be tasteless if there’s no evacuations having happened in fact.
*Prepares the arc words*
@To Shadow-Knight.
No Ill Will or Hard Feelings.
*Prepares for Combat accordingly, meaning every word uttered*
So Justice league War’s Aquaman is a bit of a natural brawler. He know how to block, dodge, and throw a punch fairly well in a fight
www.youtube.com/watch?v=zU0V9mvqLHE
but he isn’t anything like a trained warrior like Mera.
Holy crap, it’s finally here! Though I had intende it to be the comic version of Aquaman. :-/
I guess we could use both, Round 1 using dc animated univers Aquaman, Round 2 using current comic version. Styx enchantments are allowed for round 2 should current comic Aquaman be to op.
“I miss Young Justice :(”

Isn’t CW picking it back up? Or is that a long dead rumor?
@Cross
Not sure what you mean by that but thanks regardless. Glad you like the match, seemed like one made in heaven when I thought it up.
“Isn’t CW picking it back up?”
–
Doubt it. They seem to be focused on the Arrow/Flash universe The current animated series they are doing is for Vixen.

Little bit of Aquaman current powers.

No giant waves or anything so far but he’s got control over rain, wind, lightning, ice, earth, etc etc.
@Shadow-Knight at #10
For now focus on the matter at hand, and also are the premises evacuated?
I’ll generally not stand for citizens caught in the crossfire for obvious reasons.

Blast it, Young Justice was starting to offer worthy opposition, plus YJ!-Zatanna is interesting. T_T
Also what do you mean that Darkseid’s world is looming over and calculating when they’ll unleash their armies!?
—
Interesting, so the version of Aquaman you’re showing also deals in Ice Powers I see.
I can’t recall if Percy’s got the hang of Ice Powers or not, a lot of everything else thus far’s up his alley potentially.
Aquaman’s weapon-based skill’s not lackluster either from what I’d recall.

I think it’s a rumor.

The Styx enchantment may not be enough…

Current New52 Aquaman has like… Poseidon powers or something… That lets him make lightning, fire, & control the Earth.

How good is his lightning?

With Styx on, Percy gets tired faster. Should Aquaman make it a prolonged fight, he might pull out a win for round 2.
@cross
Yes…..the island is evacuated
…
@Nsl
Ah, its been a while since I read the series. Would it be better if for round 2 Percy had access to all his gear and such (mulivitemons, and so on)
Aquaman doesn’t use magic (unless the new Avatarish powers are magic related), so the multivitamins are kinda useless. I don’t recall any other gear Percy used throughout the books. He usually just uses Riptide and sometimes a shield.
—
I don’t think you should remove Styx. It should let him hang for awhile, especially since they’re in Hawaii. There is lots of water around, and that rejuvenates Percy. Could be an interesting second round.
@Shadow-Knight at #16
Thanks on both counts by all means.
Also to answer yours and Nsl98’s count, anyone recall The Nemean Lion Armor that arrived from the pelt itself?
Noted to be Indestructible but how well it holds against Concussion is a good question to ask.
There is also The Chameleon Armor(a type of Camouflage Armor) by chance?
Best-used at a distance, I feel very atrocious that neither wikia page has been cited and I know quotes for those were on-site in the past.
Just in case, Aquaman’s Trident is a Cosmic Weapon(unless he’s using a not-so-cosmic Replica), right?
How good is Aquaman at beating enemies by concussion with it?
I know that if he can hit Darkseid with it, he can hurt Darkseid with that Trident.

@Everyone
I’ll be there for both rounds for as long as I am able, know this everyone.

How durable are they?
—
So Arthur swims faster than Percy. The fastest Percy has gone is Mach 4, whereas hypersonic is Mach 5+. What are Arthur’s reactions like?
“How durable are they?”
–
Have no idea but pretty much everything Atlantis made would have to withstand a lot of pressure since they operate deep underwater.
===
“What are Arthur’s reactions like?”
–
Not really sure. He doesn’t really try to dodge bullets since they are pretty much an inconvenience. He has a few deflecting or dodging energy blast like manta’s lasers but I doubt he is anywhere near relativistic.

Does he have any other scans that show him being bulletproof? Cuz in this scan:

^it looks more like his suit is bullet proof and his skin isn’t.
Interesting match. I think that comics Aquaman takes it (he managed to outspeed Superman while in water after all), but not sure about animated Aquaman.
So, when did Aquaman get elemental powers? What else have I missed?

He got hit in the head at close range by a weapon that would punch a hole into a person. All he got was a cut from it bouncing off him. Still sounds like an inconvenience.

Atlanteans aren’t invulnerable they just happen to be built a lot tougher.

Summery
Some bad juju, Aquaman needs help to save a group of dimension removed atlanteans, goes to posiden for help, gets cool trident/sword and powers.

K.
Weird, I can’t edit my comment. Oh well, double post incoming.
—
I feel it’s worth mentioning that Percy has trained for years to fight against different types of weapons. Tridents included:
“Round one!” Antaeus announced. The gates opened, and a dracaena slithered out. She had a trident in one hand and a weighted net in the other— classic gladiator style. I’d trained against those weapons at camp for years. She jabbed at me experimentally. I stepped away. She threw her net, hoping to tangle my sword hand, but I sidestepped easily, sliced her spear in half, and stabbed Riptide through a chink in her armor. With a painful wail, she vaporized into nothing, and the cheering of the crowd died.

He might be able to find some way to deal with AM’s trident skillz. The elemental stuff will be hard though…
