Item Description

Here's the momentous and memorable first issue of Prince Namor's own title: SUB-MARINER #1 from early summer in the tumultuous year of 1968. I have such fond memories of poring over this issue on my lunch breaks from my summer lifeguarding job. Being near water all day really made Namor relatable for me!

As told by Master Ret-Con Genius Roy Thomas, this issue gives the reader a comprehensive history of the Lord of Atlantis, from his boyhood in Atlantis through his Golden Age appearances and WWII exploits, to his battles with the Fantastic Four and his time as a homeless man in new York City - all seen through Namor's memories as he lies trapped beneath tons of ice by the villain DESTINY! John Buscema dynamically depicts the turmoil of Namor's life and battles, with an inking assist from Frank Giacoia.

This is a terrifically-preserved copy of SUB-MARINER #1 with an unblemished cover, a strong binding and minimal toning of its 52-year old pages! All that eye-appeal leads us to grading this an 7.0 FN/VF. The Overstreet Guide feels $390 is appropriate -- we feel $295 plus FREE shipping is even MORE appropriate -- and the very best price here on HipComic!

••• And there is no further postage charge if you buy additional items, so load up on some of our other Silver Age Marvels, if that's your thing!
