Since we've fallen off our usual pace of late, I'll quickly add another (very) brief appearance by
Namor in an
Avengers book.
The Marvel Universe was in the midst of its massively shitty Secret Wars 2 story which affected most of its titles. The book feels like a filler issue to bridge us over to the inevitable crossover. Most of it is pointless.
Namor's appearance amount to little more than a page in which his self-doubt is reiterated.
This leads to a cameo by
Susan Richards for the Fantastic Four.
Namor, as usual, crushes on her, but Franklin shows up to spoil the mood.
Oh, you will!
Namor's confidence issues in this book are actually kind of a refreshing contrast to his bluster in other books. He's been on other teams before so in a way it's out of place but he was often the most powerful and/or a founding member. As a newcomer on a team with Hercules perhaps it's not so strange after all.
