It's been
over two years since I reviewed the issue prior to this one so it's about time I got around to the second part of the story.
At the end of #5,
Tiger Shark had laid out
Namor. Thinking he had killed its prince,
Shark turned his attention to the throne of Atlantis, as so many seem to, but
Dorma lures him away.
This is a rare occasion of seeing
Dorma make herself useful. Every little bit helps!
Tiger Shark's sister, Diane, brings
Namor back to consciousness and he sets off against his enemy and his true love but he fails to catch up to before the pair reaches Atlantis.
Once there,
Shark decides he's going to run the place, but a brave warrior named
Seth steps up to challenge him.
Seth appeared briefly in the previous issue as well.
The fight is brief, as
Seth's weapons are useless against
Tiger Shark's powers.
The council of elders ask
Shark to spare the young soldier if the villain wants them to acknowledge his victory. Seeing an easy path,
Shark agrees.
When
Namor reaches Atlantis, his people are glad to see despite having exiled him earlier. They're a hell of a lot nicer when they need something.
Namor and
Tiger Shark come to blows, naturally...
Ah, but
Namor refuses to murder
Tiger Shark despite the opportunity to do so. His victory, as well as his show of mercy, convince the council of elders to restore him to the throne of Atlantis. And so in no time,
Tiger Shark is incarcerated and
Namor, well...
Nice! I...don't recall much about this "Destiny"
Namor refers to but obviously it won't be long until he comes up again. He was in this issue earlier but because his presence was not relevant to this story, I glossed over it. We'll get to him later.
