Namor is
Marvel's oldest super hero. Premiering in MARVEL COMICS #1 in
1939. In the 50's he briefly returned to comics, but then
vanished again. He was later brought back in FANTASTIC FOUR #4
and appeared in several books after that including the AVENGERS
and eventually back into his own title shared by fellow Defenders
TALES TO ASTONISH. Namor is the Avenging Son, the mighty Prince
of the Blood--the ruler of Atlantis. A hybrid of human and

with other amazing abilities. Water replenishes his strength, and
when submerged within his element he is nearly unbeatable.
