Namor

The King of Atlantis has more in common with Black Adam than any other comic book character. They’re both narcissists on an epic level. Despite that, they’ll both do whatever they can to protect their kingdoms. Sometimes that means peace while other times it means war. There have also been times where they’ve “bent the knee” to avoid death due to war.

As much as this writer loves Namor, he can’t beat Black Adam. Namor trades punches with the Hulk, but Adam can keep Namor away from the seas. Without that advantage, Namor loses. If this ends in the ocean, it’s a short fight for the ruler of Kahndaq.

Silver Surfer

The Silver Surfer could have the greatest power on this list. He wields the Power Cosmic. What is that exactly? It’s whatever he wants it to be. It heals the wounded and can injure the mightiest of beings. The Surfer has defeated entire armies on his own and sometimes with ease. Black Adam doesn’t stand a chance.

Adam doesn’t have what it takes to beat the Surfer. He’s mean enough, but he doesn’t have the power to do it. The Power Cosmic is something even Adam can’t overcome. The other advantage is Surfer can survive longer in a battle than Adam can. When the fight ends up in space (and it will) Adam is at the Silver Surfer’s mercy.
