Wherein Namor makes an impression yet again.

I guess the FF didn't get the memo that the party was supposed to be in evening wear. Could they possibly be ... crashing???

Back in the day when Namor wasn't so eloquent.

I love Namor's tank of Anti-Flame Fluid. He obviously came prepared.

"Stall off any cops who try to interfere!"
... with Namor digging up a reservoir
... instead of using his usual drill technique.

"He appears so noble -- almost godlike -- tho he wears but simple swimming trunks!!"
Wherein Namor and his speedo make an impression ... again.

Yep, Namor's speedos definitely make an impression! Just look--she's blushing so hard her whole body turned red!

Did Namor and Tamara ever become lovers? I've read few of her appearances myself (and most of those are more recent ones, from her appearances in NEW THUNDERBOLTS or her time as Tiger Shark's lover), but I've heard conflicting reports on that.

That's totally my Dad's high school formal outfit from the 1970s that Namor is wearing. Although Dad had the biggest 'fro a white man can sport. . Brilliant cover.

"Namor! I was expecting you!"

Wherein Namor makes an uncomfortable entrance,

and Reed Richards thinks he is a Bond Villain.

Or perhaps a lounging Bond Girl.

Yeah, if you take Namor's dialogue out of there and just leave Reed's dialogue and body posture to speak for themselves...well, it sends this scene off in an entirely different direction! lol

I love that even their lampshades are designed with the 4 logo.

Even more hilarious, when one remembers that Namor's first encounter with Tamara's people was the all male crew. ;p

I was always under the impression that they were a couple. Though I don't recall seeing them break up. She just sudden showed up with Tiger Shark, IIRC.

Heh ... I didn't think of that. Of course, this cover is from the 90s ... but yes, I agree. It does have a high school formal vibe.

A literal take on corporate head hunting.

A great cover! Headhunter was certainly an interesting looking villain. I was pleasantly surprised to see her turn up again after all this time a couple of years ago in the VILLAINS FOR HIRE miniseries. Although her original gimmick doesn't work too well as a recurring bit once it was exposed the first time, she still had other tricks (with her hypnotic powers) and a unique look, so its good that she didn't disappear into limbo forever.

"It's incredible!
Without armor -- without weapons -- his power is the equal to mine!"

Poor Tony.
THWOOOM!!! says your power is most definitely NOT the equal of the sovereign of Atlantis.
