    Ultron
    Kang
    Thanos
    Red Skull
    Tony Stark (he's done enough to be on this list)

    and then move on to lower level problems like:
    Frank Castle
    Carnage
    Dracula

    Namor was first because not only has he done bad things from a planetary perspective (flooding NYC and invading the surface twice), but there was a personal connection to Dr. Spectrum's loss. Everyone else on the list is or has done very bad things and either did so deliberately or is a real threat. There's no comparing Hulk with say Franklin Richards. Franklin has the power to be a threat but not only is he a child, hes always either in control, or the threat is hidden. Hulk is right out there causing loss of property and life when he loses it. Franklin isn't. Others that have been mentioned only caused problems because of outside influence. Its why Cyclops isn't on this list.
    I fully agree except for Castle think SS has no reason to go after him or you have some reason? They are similar in some things.

    I've voted "Other." They should go after themselves. Their acts are endangering their new earth more than anybody else on that list.

    They didnt volunteer to kill off their world. Every time they pulled the trigger on another world instead of theirs, they sacrificed others for themselves. Its why the heroes of the storu couldnt do it. Its completely against their nature of self sacrifice. Sometimes mercy is not continuing the cycle of violence.

    Whatever.
    It's presented as who the Squadron Supreme should "logically" go after...but the "logically" should have been dropped before putting out this list, doesn't fit at all.
    Quoted for accuracy.

    Wow. Some Shuri supporters should take that bolded to heart. Sorry sidebar.

    Yeah, that's why heroes like T'challa and Reed built a life raft and THEY and their families were on it, instead of sacrificing themselves so others could live.

    But again. They didn't kill off any world, and thus sacrificed BOTH worlds AND two universes. They sacrificed two universes, for their own selfish moral feels. AFTER they took on the responsibility of saving the world, instead of sharing that responsibility with the rest of the planet. Their action was entirely selfish.
    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?

    In a lot of ways, I feel the same. He did make Namor the scapegoat of his story. He deconstructed him, and then did nothing (cause I really doubt he's going to 'fix' this in the last issue of SW) to reconstruct him.

    Which member of T'Challa's family was on the life raft?

    Hickman couldn't even be bothered to show us Shuri being skewered on the end of Proxima Midnight's spear whilst the rest of the Cabal laid waste to Wakanda and her people.

    I'm afraid the Crying king of the Dead was the only Wakandan on that life raft.

    I should let you know that I'm currently overdosing on Namor back issues dating back to 1968 so it goewith issapointed at what Hickman did wid s without saying, that I'm even more dissapointed with how Namor was misused pre Secret Wars.

    Yes, he was the only Wakandan, but he was on it. And Reed's entire family was on the raft. It's understandable, but it certainly doesn't fit HUTHAIFA claim of their self sacrifice getting in the way.

    My opinion is that Namor gets TOO MUCH of the blame for destroying the planet. Tony, T'Challa, Reed, Beast, Strange etc. All have blood on their hands. They built those bombs Namor detonated. With out them Namor would of had anything to use to destroy that planet. ALL OF THE ILLUMINATI HANDS ARE COVERED IN BLOOD AND YOU DON"T WASH THAT OFF. That's my 2 cents.

    "We live in a world of cowards. We live in a world full of small minds who are afraid. We are ruled by those who refuse to risk anything of their own. Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark

    Namor literally was the scape goat.

    I think even in a meta sense, he was used so that other characters like Reed and Iron Man wouldn't have this on their resume.

    It's a bit unfair, but it also sort of makes sense.

    For me personally that actually made Namor more sympathetic because of the impossible tough position he was forced into... though understandably a lot of opinions on Namor went the opposite direction.

    Why is Frank Castle being suggested? He shoots up criminals honestly I dont think Squadron Supreme cares...Nighthawk can probably appreciate some of the Castle Style.
