Sub-Mariner #6

The final chapter of "Revolution" arrives in this 2008 limited series tie-in to The Initiative, and Michael Turner's cover sets a fittingly somber tone — Namor stands with his back turned, gripping a golden trident, his powerful frame framed by churning water and the crumbling ruins of what appears to be a submerged cityscape. There's something genuinely compelling about that downward gaze, conveying the weight of a king who has clearly been through something significant. With Cherniss, Johnson, and Briones bringing this six-part story to a close, it's a satisfying send-off for one of Marvel's most enduring anti-heroes.
