A.I.M., the Pantheon and even Doctor Doom have all fallen before the might of the Maestro! Finally, he may now reign over his kingdom with a firm green fist.

YES! Finally getting Super-Villain Team-Up, even if it AU.
Got to say, don NOT like the facial hair.

I have to get up pretty early to beat you to the news! I was just looking over the solicitations this morning after only seeing partial ones at various sites last night. Doom is only featured on one of the variants but that Namor just doesn't look right to me. I read Peter David's Maestro mini last year and I hope this one is better. As usual Maestro ends up beating the **** out of everyone. I really never liked this version of the Hulk but I guess it's PAD's baby. It's the only character he seems to be interested in writing these days.
I am really looking forward to his take on the relationship between Namor and Doom. Having read the other Maestro series, I just wasn't sure where or when this was taking place. I'll have to go back and see but it seemed to be in an AU.

Is this an older Namor? An evil Namor? He looks both with the new facial hair.

So right! LOL!
[QUOTE=Phoenixx9;5784570]Is this an older Namor? An evil Namor? He looks both with the new facial hair.[/QUOTE]
I think it is an older alternate universe Namor, as Maestro is an alternate universe Hulk, from an apocalyptic future. Yeah, that goatee doesn't help the look at all, which is part of why I don't like it.

LOL! Well, I do have bad sleeping habits. ;p
I agree. For one thing, Namor is wearing far too many clothes, even if he is Old Man Namor! I'm hoping the interior art is more to my taste, though I'm sure he'll still have that horrible facial hair. It's strange how many AU Namor's have a goatee or facial hair. There's even a robot version of Namor from an FF story that someone tries to pass off as a future Namor, and he's got the goatee! What's ironic is so many people use that image for 616 Namor in their articles! That's how I know if they actually know anything about Namor.
Anyway, back to the Maestro mini --- haven't read the other two, but plan to before January. Since it is Maestro's book, I expect he'll prevail. But Peter David is a pretty solid writer, and he often uses an AU Namor, so hopefully it will be entertaining. I hope he does justice to SVTU. Who knows? If it goes over well, maybe he'll do a 616 SVTU!

[center]Indeed. There's no doubt about the outcome, but let's hope things turn out better than the time Namor went up against Arthur. :p

Aaaah! What a horrible page.
Yes, I know the outcome was decided by vote, but I do think Peter David went for the totally ridiculous and embarrassing. Though he was writing for DC and Aquaman, so ....

SUPER VILLAIN TEAM UP!!!! I don't care if it's an AU I just can't wait for the drama!!! I was looking through Jan stuff and why does Wolverine need another two series???? Lives of X and Death of X, do we really need more wolverine? I am just so tired of it.
Anyways I just hope Namor won't be used in any more Avengers, so this WWM comic is the best I have to look forward to for namor next year (So far)
-
Yeah, we really need more Wolverine titles *sarcasm* Even though we know Namor, Doom and the Abomination will get bested by the Maestro at least it should be entertaining to read about them plotting together.

Yes! Beggars can't be choosers, so I'll take the AU. Peter David can do witty dialog, so I hope he leans into it with Doom and Namor. They can be so much fun!
So far, indeed. This is just January. I'm hoping there will be more ... like a follow up to KiB mini. I know. But I can hope.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news ... but this is from Aaron's newsletter:
[QUOTE=Jason Aaron]And while you’re at the local comic shop, you can pick up the newly released AVENGERS #49. I think you can tell from these first few pages that I rather greatly enjoy writing Namor, King of Atlantis.[B] Expect me to be doing more of that.[/B][/QUOTE]

Buckle up Namor fans.

That's my hope too for Maestro.
Yes, the solicits just get more and more depressing for me.

NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! THIS IS THE WORST NEWS I AM SO UPSET. Why can't he just leave Namor ALONE.

Abomination and Namor together should be able to equal a calm-to-slightly angry Maestro (according to old handbooks). But if Maestro gets enraged, yeah, look out everybody!

Honestly, and maybe it's just me, but the first image does not look at all like a guy. Can Namor change the shape of his face and the like, because honestly it looks like a lady in the first image. Even the eyes are slightly different.
Brings up a dumb question, could gender bent Namor work? Like for a What if joke thing. Because with his looks I think he could pull it off.

Wouldn't that just be Namora?
