Namor, the Sub-Mariner Annual

Over four annual issues from 1991 to 1994, Marvel paired the Sub-Mariner with fellow heavyweights like the Hulk, Captain America, and Doctor Strange in standalone adventures, often written by Ron Marz. Artists such as Bill Wylie, Brian Stelfreeze, and Cully Hamner brought a rotating visual energy to these oversized stories, which explored Namor’s volatile alliances and Atlantean pride. While not a continuous narrative, the series captured the Prince of Atlantis at the height of his early-1990s prominence, offering a showcase for his interactions with Marvel’s mightiest.
