A custom bust of Orca! I love how it is to scale, comparison to Tigershark.
He's also blue, which he wasn't, in the latest Avengers. sigh.

I'm really just waiting for Enter the Phoenix to be over so I don't have to see that version of Namor again. If someone wanted me to point out everything a writer could do wrong with Namor at least I will have the perfect example.
ha, same here. In my head canons I can make it all make sense.
Oh wow Rev! This art is wonderful and I love when artists put all of Namor's cast/villains all in one piece like this.

I don't know. I found it on Instagram, and it didn't say it was a custom, but painted. However, I don't know of any Orka statue / figure, so I'm thinking it must be a custom. The scale would seem to limit the number of busts that can be adapted (Hulk and his cast) -- unless it is something in a different scale than Bowen. There is a lot of 3D models that are being printed nowadays, so maybe that's what it is.
I love those aquatic busts -- Stingray's is amazing. I have those, and the Attuma and Triton. I wish we had an Orka, Llyra, Andromeda, and of course Namora and Namorita.

Have to agree. Though, from that future Avengers issue, and Aaron's previous Things to Come page, Aaron will be abusing him for a while yet.
This definitely goes to the eternal question of: Do you want to see the character used, even if it is badly? I mean, the only thing worse than abuse is no use.
I thought it was pretty cool. But it's clearly geared toward Namor's Silver and Bronze Age appearances. I don't think there's many from the 90s run. Did you see Suma-Ket?

Okay, latest Clickbait / Twitter rumors:
As best as I can tell, RPK seems to have reported on his patreon that Namor and Hercules are likely to appear in the MCU. I say that, because the tweets I've seen have all been in another language, usually Spanish or Portuguese -- thank you Google Translate.
And then today I see this French version of a new book out with a bunch of MCU characters and ... Namor and Herc on the cover!
Marvel Myths and Legends by James Hill
Now, the US cover only has MCU characters, but it does have this in the blurb:
https://www.amazon.com/Marvel-Myths-...=UTF8&qid=&sr=Explore the fabled myths and epic legends of the vast and vibrant Marvel Universe.
Visit the dawn of time to witness the birth of the Celestials and their warring creations, the Eternals and Deviants. Discover the pantheons of Thor, the Asgardians, and their Olympian rivals. Wonder at the arcane origins of Doctor Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme. Behold the new and ancient gods of Wakanda and the Black Panthers. Celebrate the rise of Atlantis and its royal protector Namor, the Sub-Mariner.
These are the spectacular sagas and mythic tales that define and underpin the Marvel Universe.
A reviewer says this is included:
.... Ancient Atlantean history leading up to the coming of Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner.
At the very least, it seems to validate the idea that Atlantis, at least Pre-Cataclysm Atlantis, will appear in the Eternals.

Looks like it could be a nice book, but I do not know if it is old stories, new ones or a bit-a-both? Love the cover.
I think there is something in it about Pantheons, but with Aaron playing around with things, could this book be out-of-date/incorrect already? Or are Aaron's writings not valid down the road? Or will they revert back to the way things have been in the MU?
Yes, none of us know nor can answer right now, but this Inquiring Mind wants to know, lol!

It is one of those "encyclopedia" type books. Basically text with some illustrations that explains various characters or concepts. I'm guessing this is aimed at explaining the Eternals before the movie.
Sadly, it looks like it has Aaron's nonsense Prehistoric Avengers stuff. I didn't see anything about the Hyborian age, which is interesting. I wonder if that's a rights thing?
Now that you mention it being out of date, I'm imagining all these book editors pulling out their hair about Aaron's retcon of Thor's parentage. LOL!

I gotta say, I think I hate the Prehistoric Avengers concept even more than the Jane Foster Thor. It's just so damn stupid.
I agree. I mean really? The "Avengers" are like the foundation of the MU??? And just these particular pet characters for a writer at this moment? I can't wait for someone to decide their favorite characters get to be the foundational Amoeba Avengers that predate EVERYTHING including the Celestials!!!
