Namor. (Namor McKenzie)

Born of a human sea captain and an Atlantean princess, Namor McKenzie is a hybrid mutant and the imperious king of Atlantis. He commands superhuman strength, underwater breathing, and winged-ankle flight — perpetually torn between the surface world and his ocean kingdom.

Surfacing in the pages of Frank Miller and Klaus Janson's legendary Daredevil run in 1982, this Marvel figure made a Bronze Age entrance in seriously distinguished company. Over more than four decades of publication, he's carved out a presence across titles like Maestro: World War M, Hulk, and The Uncanny X-Men — the latter reflecting his ties to the X-Men — sharing adventures along the way with heavyweights like Iron Man, Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and the Human Torch. With a key issue among his appearances and 56 catalog entries spanning 1982 to 2025, this is a character whose longevity speaks for itself — well worth a closer look for any Marvel collector who loves a figure with real staying power.
