Sub Mariner Vs Aquaman

[Brazoo]

100% Namor for me. I love Everett's golden-age stories and Namor's silver-age resurgence. He was a great foil for Mr. Fantastic in his love triangle with Invisible Girl. His mythological look and anti-hero characteristics make him a classic character to me - where as Aquaman was always just kinda silly. Admittedly, I haven't read many Aquaman comics, and mostly know him from cartoons.

Aquaman get's the nod for me... always liked his character as he's never tried to destroy the surface world

Not a literal battle, but which character appeals to you more?

How do you differentiate the characters, particularly since Aquaman has become much more "Savage" like Namor in the past twenty years.

Are they best served as headliners in their own titles or do they work best within a team environment (or in Namor's case, as an antagonist in many titles he guests in).

Why do you think both have trouble sustaining ongoing titles?
