Friday is the FABULOUS '50s



"And I wonder, too, why we were permitted that vision of them- after death- unless... unless we, too were victims of the rapture of the depths!!!"




& FANTASTIC TEAMS

[Vernedi]

Says a faint voice from the beyond.

Snail fires sharp long distance calcium darts and nibbles on your arm with its 25,000 black fangs.

"I'M THE SNAIL-VERINE!!!"

Gasp! :O *snail looks at Thor-El suspiciously*

You can look suspiciously, while this one blushes!

[Vernedi]

I had to defend myself from an attempted foot crush. :P

Thor-El skin is too thick and impervious to snail weapons but offers a round of ale to Snail-Verine, with gained respect, judges it a good warrior.

Yay!

Thanks!

May I ask who are your Top 5 favorite characters from Marvel and DC?

You have a great sense of humor beef cake!

Join the Friday Open Mic thread one of these Fridays please... (6-8 pst)

[Vernedi]

Yeah! It's a lot of fun! This is my second Friday joining Mantis' thread. :3

[Thor-El]

May I ask who are your Top 5 favorite characters from Marvel and DC?

But of course my invertebrate friend, they are:

Namor
Thor
Superman
Hawkman
Hulk (WWH)

not on that order necessarily although right now Namor is number one.

For sure Mantis Girl, but should I bring beef or cake? Is there a link? I'm not familiar with that thread.

Never mind I just saw its a thread you started. Will try next Friday. Thanks for the invitation, MG.

Saturday is the SWINGING '60s



"Your words have brought me comfort, and your faith shall be my strength! Though you be aged and humble, it is for the likes of you I fight-- and for the likes of you I shall triumph!"

Namor, fighting for the little guy!

Man, I miss Vashti! He was a great influence on Namor and one of the few male characters Namor got along with. He was more of a father or uncle to Namor than any of his relatives. And they really should have done more with him being a commoner, a poor farmer, that Namor raised to the nobility.

I concur. It seemed frustrating how in the decade leading up to Secret Wars, the writers seemed to make Namor very antagonistic. From his time with the X-Men in Utopia, the affair with Emma Frost, to Osborn's Dark X-Men, then the Cabal, the Incursions... just jab after jab. It wasn't pleasant.

[Johnny Peril]

That Namor is just aching for a fight. The next panel and sound effect make that exchange ... even if Namor gets the worst of it. LOL!

I forgot Namor used to call air breathers surface crawlers. Reminds me of nightcrawlers. O_O

Another case where the "hero" would rather fight Namor than listen to him. When Cap finally does listen, after getting his butt kicked, he realizes Namor is right and leads to an end to the AvD war

Ah, Llyra! Her sins were indeed great! Which made her a great foe for Namor. Unfortunately, she escapes Namor's 'payment' thanks to Spider-Man, IIRC.

And yet again the "hero" attacks without hearing Namor's side who was trying to apprehend Llyra earlier when she was posing as a innocent girl.

I miss Vashti too, he was always a staple of the 60's cartoon. If I was going to make a new ongoing I would really look at those cartoons to see everything that really worked with Namor.

I haven't read none of this, as I've only followed Namor in Byrne's series and Avengers in the Roger Stern era but it sounds like a good case for Kree replacement retcon.
