Namor The Sub-Mariner Omnibus Vol. 1
Part of the Marvel Omnibus guide — every release, in reading order
Namor the Sub-Mariner was Marvel's first superhero, and his re-introduction to the Marvel Universe in the 60s shows what makes him one of the most complex and fascinating characters in comics!
Created in 1939, Namor was Marvel's first super hero, and his 1960s reintroduction linked those appearances to create the tapestry of the Marvel Universe! Imperius rex! Namor, the Sub-Mariner, is getting the Omnibus treatment! This volume takes a deep dive into his first Marvel Age exploits, collecting all the rare appearances where the anarchic antihero wreaked havoc on the nascent Marvel Universe. Back then, Namor was just as likely to team up with Doctor Doom as he was to save the world, and that was a formula for excitement! When the brash monarch earned his own series in TALES TO ASTONISH, he set out on a quest for the Trident of Neptune that would prove his status as rightful heir to the throne of Atlantis. He'll also battle Warlord Krang, defend the Lady Dorma and go to war with the Secret Empire on the way to his own solo series!
