That is a good point. Which is strange considering he's a big fan of the history and continuity of comics. Maybe he'll pull it all together at the end and have the last laugh on us, but right now, it's annoying.
Sure, it's the writer's fault, though, I'm not really a big fan of Blue Marvel, any more than I'm a fan of Sentry or Hyperion and their inspiration Superman. But it made Blue Marvel look bad, in my eyes, especially considering NIGHTHAWK even stood up for Namor, and they weren't all that close. Unless you consider that time Namor (and some other Defenders) gave up part of his essence to save Nighthawk's life.
