Namor, the Sub-Mariner Epic Collection

by Roy Thomas, Marie Severin (Artist), John Buscema (Artist)

There's no mariner like the Sub-Mariner - as you're about to see! First, our undersea hero must take on the bloodthirsty Tiger Shark, but the truly epic confrontation begins when the man called Destiny returns! His "Helmet of the Ancients" is revealed to be the powerful Serpent Crown, and its evil influence threatens the lives of Namor and everyone he loves! The drama ratchets up another notch when the alien Stalker robs Namor of his ability to fly and breathe underwater. Stranded on land, the Avenging Son of Atlantis becomes Public Enemy No. 1 - and even Doctor Doom is aiming for the target on his back! Also featuring a tooth-rattling fight against the Thing - and the touching return of a love from Namor's past!

Reviews

[Devero · Rating 1 out of 5]

Altro albo interlocutorio, scritto da Roy Thomas e disegnato dallo scarso Wyman.

Nulla di che, a parte la ricomparda di Dorcas, vecchio villain degli anni '60 e '70 sulla serie di quegli anni.
1 stella basta

[Doug Duncan · Rating 3 out of 5]

this was a solid read throughout, with good artwork but somewhat repetitive and meh stories. while I understand the character motivation, the stories felt a bit preachy at times but they were still good, and the artwork always picked up the slack to keep me engaged.
