I know Byrne has a reputation for fixing comic plots (even if they don't need fixing), but this right here just encapsulates it. He had to retcon a blood imbalance to explain why Namor is always angry. As opposed to the much simpler explanation, that he's just an asshole.

Christ Namor....

Side note: I like how awesomely Namor's attitude is while he wrecks their shit. He manages to compliment himself while insulting them.

Gotta love how much of a lovable jerk Namor is

I don't think he's anywhere NEAR as smart as he thinks he is. On the other hand, he's a sociopath who probably doesn't care about his sister, so it's not like he'd care if she died.

Hands down best arc of the run IMO. I found Byrne's a little bland, and frankly un-Namory.

Also Byrne's explanation was actually a good thing. Namor's nothing as simple as an "asshole", he's a fucking headcase. It provided a canon reason for all the bipolar inconsistency.
Just saying. If Gruenwald beat him to it y'alld be lappin' it up.

>>84482742

It's a Namor comic. I'm here for Namor and Namor accessories. Not normies & economics.

Anything more challenging? Or, I dunno, beneficial to canon? Shit I'd take "and THAT'S why all supervillains used to wear green and purple".

>>84488642

The thing is, it's crazy OCD/Aspie shit like this (Norman and Sandman have to be related BECAUSE THEY HAVE SIMILAR HAIRSTYLES) that he's famous for.

He also HAD to retcon Doc Ock's relationship with Aunt May into him just being after her inheritance, and TELL PETER PARKER THAT TO HIS FACE, in very uncharacteristic-for-Doc-Ock language in one of the annuals.

He's a loon.
