I don’t really know how to write around this, or whether I should even try.
Marvel has sent us a preview in which Namor takes a piss bath.
The imprisoned, presumably former king of Atlantis is given a bucket of dingy, yellow liquid by his jailers – who claim they all “chipped in” to fill it – and, when he politely declines it, gets the bucket dumped on his head.
This is what we’re doing in this eight-issue miniseries, huh? Just going zero to edgelord in four pages flat. Cool. Cool cool cool. Cool.
I feel dirty.
Check out our exclusive preview of Namor #1, out next week, and keep scrolling for the basic deets.
(W) Jason Aaron (A) Paul Davidson (CA) Alexander Lozano
“LAST KING OF ATLANTIS” War rages beneath the waves, from the lost cities of the Secret Seas to the fathomless depths where the Elder Whales reign. Seven kings, old and new, fight to rule the watery realm. But where is Namor, the once mighty Sub-Mariner? He’s sitting behind bars on the surface, with no intention of ever setting foot in the seas again. So begins an oversized Atlantean event that will forever reshape the landscape of the undersea world while at last laying bare the dark history of Atlantis and its fiercest, most infamous defender. An epic that will redefine the King of the Seas in the manner of Jason Aaron’s PUNISHER series!
