As nice as I'll ever need it.

Appears after the mid 70's nearly only time Namor appeared was as Guest/Guest Villain/Foil. After Invaders ended except for small handful of Defenders issues that's all he did until the late 1980's

I guess I never really noticed that, but upon reflection on it, I think you're right! His title sank fairly quickly after the passing of papa Bill Everett, and I don't recall him having another "home" until sometime in the 80s.

Reprint but my first exposure to the 68 series and J Buscema's great Namor art.

 

 

 

I wish they could depict him like this in the films other than that clart they have done with him.

Kane must have been furious that Everett laid out the prone female opposite of the way to get an "up the nose" shot.

Thanks, I use to own every Sub-mariner book and appearance from FF4 up to Byrne's Namor run. Had to sell most of it like Avengers 3,4 X-Men 6 and most of his 68 run. I even use to have FF annual 3 as he is on the cover and mentioned in the book. Also Avengers annual 1 as he appears as a hologram.

I did keep FF 4,6,9,14 and first 14 issues of 68 run and scattered bronze age issues that I posted.

I've been a big Sub-mariner fan for a long time. Here are some other stuff I kept when I sold my collection down to 350 books to move overseas.

Sorry it's not bronze age.
