what can Namor actually do, if he's lost control?? he flies, he's super strong and invulnerable...but, what else..?? can he actually take on a bunch of Avengers, including Odinson, all at one time?

It's a little funny how the X-Men, a group that has been time and time again used as a symbol of the cruelties of oppression, are looking to be portrayed as the bad guys of this arc. Now I'm just assuming this is the way things are because of the articles posted here since I haven't touched an X-Men comic in a few years but if I'm making this assumption surely others are too.

@ froggy

don't get me wrong i would love to see an aquaman movie i only read the first two issues of his comic,i thought was pretty good.

so yeah a movie based on the comic would be bad ass,but marvel have been hinting at a namor movie or at least a cameo with a couple of teasers that were at the end of iron man 2.

@ earone:

Namor is pretty powerful, but your right. He could never handle Thor unless Thor was drowning in the ocean or something. As far as handling them all... not a chance.

Namor's in a rage because he has received vast, cosmic, power and is still stuck wearing a scaly speedo. I believe the caption on the cover will read "I WILL HAVE PANTS, GODDAMMIT!!!!"

And Superman with some letters mixed around is Purse Man...

And add an A and Spider-Man becomes Diapers-Man

With only a slight spelling re-arrangement Wonder Woman becomes Tinker Bell

The Avengers = Illuminati

....it's all a big conspiracy... :)

@Marvel72

Good Lord thats a crazy list of feats! Nice post man. Definately impressed with Namor as of... now! haha I never really read much about him until I recently got back into Uncanny X-Men..

I like how scalping Wolverine was #1 too... Wouldnt mind seeing an encore of that one!

i'm glad you liked it,i thought alot of effort went into making that editorial & it should be shared if you've never seen it before.

Yeah, Namor is tougher than most people realize. And, like Loki in the Avengers film, he has an army. Unlike Loki in the film, Namor will not tolerate the Hulk putting hands on him. He'd blast Hulk in the mouth with an old-fashioned knuckle sammich and then go toe-to-toe with him.
