“Triumphs-- and Tragedy”

The twelve-issue limited series reaches its conclusion here, with Namor the Sub-Mariner front and center on a cover penciled by Rich Buckler and inked by Bob McLeod — the Prince of Atlantis standing coiled with fists clenched, green-scaled trunks and gold belt gleaming against a murky underwater backdrop of coral and rock. That starburst badge proclaiming "The Grand Finale!" captures the weight of this closing chapter, titled "Triumphs — and Tragedy," written by Roy Thomas and Dann Thomas. A worthy capstone to Marvel's sweeping retrospective of one of comics' most enduring anti-heroes.
