Question: Tomb of Namor in UFF

Was that his only appearance, I mean come on, the guy's all set to be the perfect anti-hero of the Ultimate Universe and he only makes one appearance, not to mention that he's got the knowledge of Atlantean magic on his side powerful enough to cause a giant tidal wave to form over New York and take the form of Posiedon?

Richards even said that he's the most powerful mutant around. Guy learns the english language in only one hour from watching people. Plus he's got a new background as Atlantis' super criminal, I mean what did he do, kill the king or something.

I want to know more about this character, Marvel ought to give him his own Ultimate Mini Series.

BRING BACK ULTIMATE NAMOR
:D

You just listed a whole lot of reasons NOT to bring him back. Millar made him way too powerful to be a regular character.
He's almost the Superboy Prime of the Ultimate Universe.

I agree. I'd love to see someone like Mitch Breitweiser on art.

They could do a mini about Namor's past, and how he got locked up. That way its not him in the present. And then, they could just have another arc where he returns as a threat.

Millar made Ultimate Iron Man (Bendis' Ultimate Team-Up doesn't count) and yet Orson Scott Card did the origin, and it wasn't horrible. I could accept someone else writing this mini, despite its unlikelihood.

The last Sub-Mariner series did pretty well.

What I love about Ult. Namor is that he's such a douche. He's like a frat boy with superpowers.

I have been reading Ultimate Universe books in trade so I am a bit behind. Where was Namor's appearance? Was that in the pages if an Ultimate FF book or some other mini-series of which I haven't heard?

We should always put spoilers in these kinda posts..if you're going to show artwork and talk about certain parts of your favorite run on a book. In this case we should also have a warning for possible use of Greg Land art. That's the main reason I haven't read Mark Millar's middle arcs on UFF. I wanna but I don't like his art.
