Okay, this cover is now explained. It is part of the X-Treme Variant theme. It's like the worst of two worlds ... XTREMENE and buying Avengers 62.

NAMOR: CONQUERED SHORES #2 (OF 5)

CHRISTOPHER CANTWELL (W) • PASQUAL FERRY (A/C)
VARIANT COVER BY MATEUS MANHANINI

Does Jim Hammond, the original Human Torch, yet live? Could he hold the key to the salvation of Earth’s human refugees? Namor seeks to find out. Accompanied by Luke Cage, the Sub-Mariner sets off across what devastated surface of Earth remains, looking for answers and following traces of his oldest adversary…

32 PGS./Rated T+ …$4.99



Another costume!

Didn't expect Luke Cage. And of course, it's the Baxter Building. ;p

Got to go hunt down that variant cover, now.

Also. WHY are these $4.99???

Another variant cover theme ... Timely! This one done by Patrick Zircher.

I noticed that too this week. I think we are seeing a rise prices across the board now and not just special issues.

So Namor's oldest adversary, would that be Warlord Krang or someone further back?

The one in yellow is a variant of the original Whizzer costume I was speaking of last page back. The one I know had a blue cape.

No, I'm pretty sure it's Jim Hammond.

Doing a search to see if there's any explanation on the price hike.

Okay, I didn't recall it having that much blue.

Here's the one I remember from the era.




Of course, this homage has added the Whizzer and the Destroyer. On Giant Size Invaders it was only the big three and Toro and Bucky.

On a quick search and find, it appears every single $4.99 book is 40+ pages, EXCEPT the Namor book. Time to agitate for MORE pages!

Lol, yes, but what I was saying last page, is that the pic you show here of Whizzer, which is what eveyone will swear is the Whizzer costume, was a modernized sleeker look they started using when he came back in the '70's, but that there was an older, original costume which was different and had more blue in it with a blue cape (not as stream-lined as the modern look), and I offered this as a possible solution as to why Namor did not recognize Whizzer when he fought him in that Avengers book. I hope that makes sense, lol. Time continuity and retcons, oh my!!

Correct, Reviresco! Here's proof...

That C.S. cover looks great! I wonder if the future suit is for protection against pollution? or something else thats bad going on bc even luke cage is wearing it!
