Namor: Conquered Shores #1

Namor the Sub-Mariner perches atop a barnacle-encrusted pedestal in a contemplative pose — trident in hand, green-scaled armor catching the dim light — while a flooded cityscape stretches endlessly behind him, skyscrapers rising from a vast inland sea beneath a brooding, stormy sky. The image is striking in its stillness: Marvel's king of the deep rendered as a monument surveying a world already changed by water's dominion. Writer Christopher Cantwell and artist Pasqual Ferry, with colors by Matt Hollingsworth, open "Conquered Shores" with a first issue that promises something genuinely thought-provoking for fans of Namor at his most regal and unsettling.
