    Default Namor: "Ummmm, oopsie"

    I'd really like a Planet Size X-Men follow up that is just about Namor showing back up on Krakoa, and being all, "Awesome, guys! This is what I was talking about! Let's do this! You guys and me! We're gonna rule!" and the whole island pretty much saying, "Nah, it's cool. We got this. Thanks, though. We'll call you sometime, maybe. But, you enjoy your lil' kiddie pool down here".

    Well Namor in X-men#21 explicitly said he has dominion over 70% of earth. Earth has roughly 510 million km^2 surface area so that means he controls more than 350 million km^2 which is more than twice the surface area of mars. So he still has the bigger empire.

    Still not a planet though but you tried.
    Also...
    I guess you didn't hear that they now rule the entire solar system then....something bound to get the humans in their nikkers.

    After seeing his reaction at Doom's wedding, I honestly would love something like that, to be honest.

    You mean until 3-4 years when it gets destroyed.
    Ochis has a sentinel city as well.
    And they will be dealing with threats on a much larger scale now.

    Big villans for big empire. And it getting destroyed in 3-4 years is anyone's guess. I mean do you know the future have you read x-men issues from 2026? Nope so I guess we shouldn't trust your judgement then.

    You make it sound like they became the emperors of sol while most likely it will hardly affect the everyday lives of average atlantean/latverian/wakandan. The most visible effect of that statement I think is that mars will become the most popular destination for alien invasion.

    You make it sound like Kang wanted to be ruler of Earth while most likely it would have hardly affected the everyday lives of most of the people on Earth.

    Preposterous, right? Well, what you are suggesting is about the same.

    I could keep going with historical analogies ranging from Hitler to Tojo, to Stalin to Mao, to Idi Amin, to the Khmer Rouge, etc.

    Just because you like the dictator doesn’t mean it’s okay.

    Well, I pretty much intended this to be a light-hearted little discussion about Namor coming down off his ego when he sees/hears about Planet Arakko, but it's kinda going off the rails here...

    I didn't say I like the dictator. But acting like what Kang and mutants are doing are the same is just wrong. Kang actively attacks the earth. While mutants may not be exactly heroic with some of their actions at worst it's just passive aggressive show of power without throwing any punches. Even the supposed fearsome mutants are Arakko mostly wanna be left alone.

    And would be the capital till writer's dictate otherwise.

    Namor, under no circumstances, will admit he was wrong.
