Marvel Studios upcoming "Black Panther" movie sequel "Wakanda Forever", opening November 11, 2022, introduces the first live-action film take of Marvel Comics "Namor the Sub-Mariner", who intends to make DC's "Aquaman" look like 'Charlie The Tuna':
Debuting in 1939, predating DC's "Aquaman" (1941)...
...'The Sub-Mariner''was created by writer, illustrator Bill Everett...
...depicted as the mutant son of a human sea captain and a seductive princess on a spy mission for her undersea kingdom of 'Atlantis'.
Namor possessed the super-strength and aquatic breathing abilities of his mother's 'Homo Mermanus' race... ...as well as tiny flipper-like wings on his ankles that enabled him to fly.
The character has been portrayed either as a good-natured, short-fused superhero... ....or a hostile invader wildly obsessed with vengeance against all humans.
After fighting WWII with the Allies, 'Captain America' and the 'Human Torch', Namor resurfaced in the 1950's as the subject of a live-action TV series starring Richard Egan.
