Namor could very well be Marvel comics very first character. When you research Namor it says he first appeared in Marvel Comics number 1 in 1939.Namor appears before the original Human Torch,unrelated to the Fantastic Four, and before the original WW2 Captain America. Namor also appears in Marvel comics before D.C. comics Aquaman.

This is a history which I either didn't know or don't remember reading it. It was difficult, as a child, to collect comic books during the early 70's as I entered into my early teens. The only store near me was probably 3 miles from where I lived that sold comic books. I bought some Namor: The Mighty Submariner and The Invaders! Also, I loved The Fantastic Four, The Incredible Hulk and The Amazing Spiderman which helped me with Science in school.

@robvangessel3766 3 жыл бұрын
@@kyledonahue9315 I'm sure that's true, but Namor has a more complex history - being a hero/villain - shifting between being a real asshole and a noble warrior. DC characters are generally more 1-dimensional than Marvel's, and that makes for easier translations in different media. I don't think anyone outside of comics fans would know Aquaman had he not been in many animated shows for decades, and that's because he was so easy to depict.

@@martinhanke1670 That's the thing... Altantians were are whole separate culture that had no ties to Greek or Roman mythology. They had their own mythos. Being AQUATIC beings, the whole premise of their physiology, their features and related appendages should reflect their nature's and natural environment. Flying fish have oversized.lateral fins that enable them glide a good distance out of the water, though they aren't amphibious by nature, the don't breathe air, but "hold their breaths" in atmosphere until they re-submerge. The ability for Namor to fly is ludicrous considering these factors. He should be able to leap and glide a fair distance, at best. It's more realistic. Being a comic artist MYSELF, I strive to incorporate as much realism as possible, scientifically, even to fictional characters. This bridges the gap between believable science and plain magic. It's funny.. I remember an issue of the Avengers where Namor flies with a 20 ton reactor on his shoulder. A device that was necessary to defeat their for. Falcon flew beside him and his thoughts were basically, "How does he fly, much more carry such a massive peace of machinery with just those little wings on his feet". Lol!! I thought that was a funny, yet valid argument. It was that issue that made me consider to invent power sets and abilities grounded in real science.
