Namor the Sub-Mariner, Marvel's oldest character, will have been published for 85 years in 2024. So where's my GOOD Namor anniversary ongoing, Marvel?

The thing is, there ARE people in the business that know about Namor. I remember one of the Agent Carter writers talking about Namor -- but it was followed by the rights excuse. I would have been in HEAVEN if Namor had showed up in that show with Peggy -- and Betty Dean!!!

The art was gorgeous! But yes, I wasn't that impressed by the story. Or some of the characters. And, of course, it invalidates a portion of the origin story. Interestingly enough, the reason we got that series was because Universal was prepping the movie!

Was it canon that Namor was sterile and then was that retconned with the appearance of Kamar?
Namor and subject of kids, (I know in AU verses he has had kids, but I'm talking strictly 616 right now):
At first Namor had never had kids, and during the 90's comic we have the whole arc with Llyra and Llyron who turned out to be Namor's nephew since basically he had said he 'couldn't' be Llyron's father, basically the only that could be is if he was sterile. Which was also the issue with Nita finding out the truth about herself and that a long time ago when Namora wanted a child, she had to have Namorita as a clone of herself, so it was canon that half-humans, half-atlanteans couldn't have kids due to them being sterile.
Then comes the 2007 sub-mariner series and Kamar, who just popped up out of the blue and then died (I would have rather we kept Kamar around but it doesn't look like he is going to come back anytime soon) who was Namor's son with an unnamed atlantean woman of Namor's court.
Then we have the Agents of Atlas issue #7 where it was revealed that Namora's birth was calculated so that she and Namor might someday helm a new breed of Atlanteans, and so that could have implied that they could have kids but it was difficult, or only with someone who was like them.
Then we also have the Namor the First Mutant series (Riviresco you reminded me of Loa and I have always had a thought that she may be Namor's granddaughter) where we see Namor rescue a man who could look like him and Alice, (the baby boy Alice had) and we have Loa who was effected by the amulet that Namor had given her grandmother, which honestly I think it would only work on someone with atlantean royal blood?

OMG I had the SAME thought when Agent Carter was announced, and I thought for sure that would be the best way to have a cameo of Namor before moving him to the larger MCU. I honestly thought the first set pictures of Peggy and the blonde roommate she had was going to be Betty Dean.
Thanks for the link to that too! I wonder why Universal never went through with it? They did with Hulk.

lmao should've looked closer
I think Daniel dae kim has shown interest in playing namor
Daniel Dae Kim was one of my picks for Namor, and I have a few.

Other people who I believe also showed interest was Brian Tee and Donnie Yen. I think Brian Tee could make a good Namor too, and my other pick would be Rick Yune.

Namor didn't give that amulet to Loa's grandmother, IIRC. He gave it to Betty Dean. I'll have to read it again, but I didn't get the feeling that Loa was related to Namor.
Oh god. Sometimes, I hate the Byrne run. Actually, I hate all the nonsense dealing with the fertility of Atlanteans airbreathers hybrids. Hated Byrne's theory, hated Kamar's sudden appearance, hated Parker's secret eugenics program. None of it made sense.
I mean, does it make sense that a HEREDITARY, ruling monarchy would allow a ruler who couldn't provide an heir? Especially when they have royal heirs, who aren't hybrids, who desperately WANT the throne? No it does not. Does it make any sense that a ruling prince, who didn't have his own father or a supportive father figure, farm out his HEIR to some wacko to raise and never have anything to do with him? No it does not. Does it make any sense that over the centuries, the rulers of Atlantis wouldn't figure out that hey, listening to those scientist were making them more air breather than they were Atlanteans? No it does not.
Seriously. NEED A LONGTERM SOLO BOOK to straighten this mess out. Ugh.

Objectively, the Hulk is far more of a household name, and comic book success than Namor. And the Hulk didn't do exactly gang busters for Universal -- it may have broken even. Which may have had some bearing on Namor's movie not getting greenlit. Of course, there was going to be a TON of CGI, and this was almost 15 years ago. The script I read was visually amazing. The production / concept art was supposed to be amazing. But the directors kept saying they were wrestling with the script and then Marvel Studios started up.
That would have been so awesome if they had used Betty Dean in the show. Heck, I'd have settled for having one of the background cops be Officer Dean.
