365 Days with Namor, Day 14
Above, the heckling of hyenas and the whining of jackals ...
Above, the evasions of the deluded and the complaints of the selfish ...
"But the world-under-wave wears the shadowed shroud of silence"
by fans of Namor the Sub-Mariner
Today, with the murder of Namor, I'm taking a break from exisitenializzy's 365 days of Namor.
I thought about just posting a big black square, which would express my feelings far better than any words I could come up with. But I remembered this scene, one of many sad scenes of Namor grieving for someone he has lost, and thought it was perfect. Yes, it was Lady Dorma's funeral procession, but I imagine Namor's wouldn't be that different from his queen's -- if his city hadn't been leveled and his people decimated.
And of course, Roy Thomas supplied the beautiful words, which some fellow Namor fans altered a bit to fit the shabby death Jonathan Hickman gave Marvel's oldest and best character.
