	So, in that first panel, it wasn't water that I immediately thought the white on Namor was. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Doesn't help that it looks as though Normie is just fastening his tie. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Because he thinks this alliance will help Atlantis in some way. I don't know WHY he thinks that Osborn's so important, but... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I thought it was that he and Doom have plans and are waiting for the right moment to fuck Osborn over. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Norman in the last panel has a satified look. This is the most homoerotic comic scene I seen in a while. Why isn't anyone editing and changing the dialogue, that would be funny. I wonder if Norman is proud traditional conservative snice it seems so and if Harry turn gay as a teen, what would he do to him. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	All it needed was Norman to ask "Do you like... oysters Namor?" Of course, Namor would have spoiled the moment by replying "Some of my best friends are oysters" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Norman is watching Namor walk away and thinking "he'll hurt me and make me write bad checks, but I'm going to love every minute of it." (Reply to this) (Parent)

	This is the most homoerotic comic scene I seen in a while. Considering Namor is most likely naked . . . (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh come on, did they have to make the water dripping of Namor white? And why does he look so ashamed? (Reply to this)

	Is the "Namor as mutant" something that's been established before, or is it another effort to fit in as many anti-heroes onto as many books as possible? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	xdoop 2009-07-11 08:07 pm UTC (link)
	It's been established before. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	kamino_neko 2009-07-11 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	It's been long established. In fact, they've been weakening it, lately - he used to be called the first (modern) mutant...now Dr Nemesis seems to be being given that distinction. As opposed to, you know, Apocalypse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, it was kinda something they pulled out of their ass when the X-Men and related titles were dominating at Marvel so strongly that making someone a mutant would theoretically be a guaranteed sales boost. it was a stretch then, and it's a stretch now. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	When I talked to Matt Fraction at HeroesCon about the "First Mutant Namor" thing he said it would be addressed in Utopia, and probably debunked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I didn't probably pay enough attention in Biology (hated the professor), but isn't Namor a hybrid rather than a mutant? The fact that the same mating situation produced Namora would argue against the mutant claim. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do we know if the Cloak and Dagger of the Dark X-men is actually Cloak and Dagger? I suspect otherwise given a few shots where Cloak looked a bit more orange and had long hair and actually had his cloak down. (Reply to this)
