Mera vs Jean Grey

[Captain Britain of Earth 20]

Does anybody wonder who would win a battle of the redheads between Mera, Aquaman’s wife & the X-men’s Jean Grey? IMHO, Mera would be underestimated by Jean thus winning the fight in stunning fashion!

Unless Mera is fast enough to rip some water out of Jean in a quickdraw, Jean just puts her to sleep with a thought.

Presuming some telepathic immunity to Jean's mind-whammy, I'm not sure what they're highest feats are, but it again probably comes to a quick draw if Mera can fuck with Jean's water, or failing that can lash at her with a water-strike or trap her in a hard-water shackle for a ten-count, or if Jean can tk-punch Mera to KO her, or just pin her down with psychokinesis for the ten-count.

I've been reading a lot of Aquaman stuff lately and the problem is: which Mera? DC has so many reboots and soft reboots, it's hard to keep up with. Mera can dehydrate somebody very fast but I don't know if it compares to how fast Jean just just think: Sleep.

I don't know where Jean's powers are these days, but most recent versions of Jean can just rip Mera apart with TK. Jean might get a little thirsty but she can stop anything Mera can do and the opposite isn't true.

I love Mera but unless I missed something she is not immune to telepathic attacks

[Captain Morgan]

I can never keep track of how powerful Jean is at any given moment, what with how she's constantly flirting with the Phoenix Force. Her high end is certainly more powerful than Mera's best. At lower baseline levels, Mera at least has a superior durability which could help her withstand Jean's TK slightly longer. But Jean has an awful lot of power to bring to bear.

There is one story where someone is holding a gun to a hostage's head and Mera dehydrates him so fast he can't even pull the trigger. But then you get into whether that's standard high-end or an outlier, and whether it's even canon for current Mera. There are also factors like how close does Mera need to be. This was from far closer than 100 feet. Even if we assume they are aboput equal in speed, I suspect Jean can go for an insta-kill Jean might be really really dehydrated but probably still alive.

That's kind of where I'd figure it. Plus I'd bet Jean can directly fight Mera on the moisture (girl can restructure molecules and stuff) while Mera can do literally nothing. Maybe quickdraw-ish, but strongly favoring most versions of Jean. That said, I have positively zero clue where she is these days.
