    Namor has it going on but considering Reed's powers...let's just assume it was Sue who first started calling him "Mister Fantastic".

    Maleev actually apologized for this depiction on Twitter, IIRC. I think you are correct and it was something in the script or a joke with / on Bendis that led to it.
    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?

    It was a fill in to help the ailing Bill Everett meet deadlines, and if you see my cover from Sub-Mariner #57, you see Everett still delivered the goods.

    This was one of my Namor favorites also. Dan Adkins was on fire for this issue on all levels -- story, pencils, inks ... did he also do the colors? It was clearly a work of the heart for him.

    Naw, Reed's the guy who gave himself a nickname:

    I found this color guide online. The consensus is Adkins did the colors.

    What an awesome find! Gorgeous! That issue really was a labor of love from him.

    I'll cast my vote for Englehart Humperdinck, since I almost went with that cover.
