Diane Arliss

Diane Arliss is a surface-world human woman who became entangled in the undersea world of Namor the Sub-Mariner, moving in circles that brought her into contact with Atlantean figures such as Lady Dorma and Lord Vashti, as well as the Inhuman Triton.

Diane Arliss swam into Marvel's Silver Age in 1969, debuting in the pages of Sub-Mariner #19 amid the oceanic drama and cosmic ambition that defined that era's storytelling. Over a span of roughly two decades, she carved out a modest but meaningful corner of the Marvel universe, sharing adventures alongside some of the deep's most formidable figures — Namor himself, the regal Lady Dorma, Lord Vashti, and even the Inhuman Triton. With appearances spread across Tales to Astonish, Sub-Mariner, and Spider-Man Comic, and two of her eleven catalog entries recognized as key collector issues, Diane is exactly the kind of Silver Age discovery that rewards a deeper dive into Marvel's rich aquatic mythology.
