#leonard mckenzie

[imperiuswrecked]

What could have been like if Leonard McKenzie was a mixture of Captain Nemo/Fujimoto from Ponyo: someone who disowns the surface world and chooses to live under the sea with its varied resources, and adopts the Atlantean culture of his wife Princess Fen?

I think that would be a really interesting AU to explore, we've already had Captain McKenzie raise his son in What if? The Sub-Mariner was raised on land (2006), which imo is one of the best AU Namor comics ever. It explores how even though Lenoard was a loving father he couldn't protect Namor from his mother's past or find a way for his son to be happy living among the humans.

In the AU Marvel Adventures Fantastic Four (2005) #7 Captain McKenzie leaves the surface world to live with Fen among her people before he was murdered, so we don't really have much insight into what that was like.

Meanwhile in 616 we do have a comic that actually touches on this subject, Defenders (2012) #5 & 8 alludes to Captain Nemo being Namor's real father but it's never actually retconned in, it's just a little mystery that ultimately goes nowhere, which imo is for the best because the point of 616 Leonard is that he's just a normal human man, a sea captain, and the only thing he passed onto his son was that Namor is half human and the x-gene that allows Namor to fly. Issue 8 shows Leo, Fen, and Nemo as a trio of adventurers.

See while I don't mind exploring different backgrounds for the character in AUs, I strongly feel that 616 Leonard McKenzie should always just be a human, because the point of Namor's backstory isn't that he's got special background from both sides of his parents, it could have been any human, the point is that the father was a normal human. It's why I often say Leonard isn't as important to Namor's story as Fen is, but still I do love characters like Captain Nemo and Fujimoto so an AU would be great.

Submariner Summer 37

Many felicitations unto thee, Namor Nation! We gather for #SubmarinerSummer read through part 37 for another great milestone in the history of our sea prince-a series all his own. Yes, we are finally reading Prince Namor, The Sub-Mariner #1! We are kicked off by a legendary cover

And on the title page, Destiny gloats about killing Namor! How's *that* for a start to a series? Roy Thomas stays on scripts from Iron Man and Sub-Mariner #1, and we have John Buscema going all out on pencils. Frank Giacoia on inks and Sam Rosen on letters round out the team

Though victorious, Destiny is still filled with hate, so he gloats that this is his second victory. He then uses his mind powers to set Namor's brain to go over his past, so that he will finally remember the lost amnesia memories that apparently hide the first defeat by Destiny

As a plot device for a flashback issue, not the worst I've seen. So now, Oh ye faithful, thrill to the Silver Age retelling of Namor's origin. It begins with the US explorers led by Captain Leonard McKenzie causing (accidentally) a massive destruction and slaughter in Atlantis

Emperor Thakorr tells his daughter, Princess Fen, to select warriors to investigate; she says yes, but decides to do it herself. She goes to the surface and among the US expedition; soon, she ends up marrying Captain McKenzie! Weeks later, Thakorr DOES send a war party

They retrieve Fen and score some casualties on the Americans in the process, notably Captain McKenzie himself, or so Fen thinks, breaking her heart. But that brief love birthed Namor.

Fast forward to the 40s, and Namor rises to the surface, fighting war upon war

Though the wars ended, he fought still, both Atlanteans rivals like Byrrah and surface crime and enemies. Eventually, though, another destruction came to Atlantis seeming to repeat the one that led to Fen going to the surface. So Thakorr sends Namor to perform Fen's old mission

But this was not an accidental genocide by ignorant surfacers: it was Destiny with his Helmet of Power, killing and destroying just to test his abilities. He then uses them to mind control Namor, and forces him to see his Granfather and emperor, and his mother, die with Atlantis

So we finally see the cause of the destruction of "First Atlantis" that was alluded to way back in Submariner Summer part 30, covering TtA #96.

But Destiny's not done; he decides to turn Namor into his mind wiped pawn and sends him away while he hibernates one last time

So robbed of his mind and now in New York, Namor flails about a bit at first, before simply beginning to wander without identity or purpose. Y'all...this is nightmare fuel. What a godawful fate, and Destiny basically did it for kicks.

That is, of course, the state he's in when the Human Torch finds him in the classic Fantastic Four #4, which reintroduced Namor. So now we're basically back at the Silver Age, and Namor's memories are finally complete. This wakes him up from Flashback Land, where he's trapped

The ice melting on his body is the water he needs to recover his strength, and suffused with it he bursts free! And with that freedom, Namor plans to visit his wrath on the man called Destiny...and perhaps the entire surface. IMPERIUS REX!

Going to be honest, if I had to relive all that trauma all at once and wasn't just broken into a sobbing heap, I could absolutely want to destroy the world too.

But as a reader, what can I say, this was a fun if extremely truncated ride through Namor's history to that point, with some new additions and revelations in the typical Roy Thomas retcon fashion. It focuses on some key events relevant to the greater story, arc but basically this #1 was Namor 101. 👨🏽‍🏫

But NEXT, we get back to then-current events as Namor starts his hunt for revenge against Destiny as we cover Sub-Mariner #2: Cry...TRITON!

[petpackss]

Óscar Jaenada would be Leonard McKenzie, Namor's father. A colonizer who falls in love with a native woman and decides to abandon everything to live with her, until he is killed for leading native rebellions against colonizers.

Submariner (1968) #46, Gene Colan again:

Wait... Somethin wrong here what happened to Leonard. Why is he a wizard now. Wtf Gene

[imperiuswrecked]

Ok but I literally headcanon that Leonard’s father was a red headed scottish man and his mother was chinese woman and they ran off to america to get married bc their families hated them being together and they had their kids and lived in boston and started the oracle shipping line.

you know what fuck it namor is quasian I wanted more quasian rep anyway his dads wasian

[justdealingwithsomeissues]

Absolutely despise the trope of “Female hero is looking all over for a mate.” It is always just creepy from top to bottom...

@thealmightyemprex @themousefromfantasyland @strawbebehmod @professorlehnsherr-almashy @fionapplespiano @knivxsanddespair @stormandforge

I think I found a timeline where we can imagine Mutants living and thriving in Webtoon comics style: is inspired by two individual What Ifs comics that can be considered set in the same universe: What IF 23 (1980): May Parker Was Bitten by the Radioactive Spider? and What IF 27 (1991): The Submariner Joined the Fantastic Four?

I call it The Fantastic Family timeline!

Basically, a lot more of sororority between super humans and mutants would start with Namor and Sue's marriage and birth of their son, Leonard McKenzie II, in this timeline: Namor is open and proud about being not only an Atlantean, but a Mutant as well.

While in the main 616 continuity, Reed and Sue were obsessed with being normal and respectable humans and were far from accepting of the possibility that their son Franklin Richard might be a mutant and would want to bond with fellow mutants, the Sue that married Namor of this timeline would learn to embrace her mutant child, be involved in mutant politics along her husband and son, and be open about Leonard wanting to find more about other mutants, as well as his Atlantean cultural heritage, when he becomes a teen, acting less posessive and over protective than she does in the 616 timeline.

Being the royalty of Atlantis, whose subjects are very loyal to them, Namor and young Leonard bring fellow Submariners to become important allies of mutantkind, turning the fight against human prejudice something more even.

May Parker, alive husband Ben Parker (as the family driver), her nephew Peter, his wife Mary Jane and their little daughter Annie May Parker become the Spider Family, that ocasionally teams up with the Fantastic Five while also mainly dealing with Street Level Crime alongside heroes like Daredevil, Luke Cage, Misty Knight, Colleen Wing and Jessica Jones.

On the cosmic scale, you would have the Defenders formed by Aarkus (Golden Age the Vision), The Hulk, his wife Jarella, She-Hulk, Betty Ross as Red Harpy, Doc Samson, Dr. Stephen Strange and the Silver Surfer.

And lead by Magneto, the X-Men would relocate their school to Alaska and get dual Canadian/US American Citizenship, alternating some groups to go in field missions while other groups stay to teach and protect the younger mutants.

Wolverine would still be an Alpha Flight member, that acts as a liaison between the Canadian Goverment and the X-Men

P.S: The Avengers don't need to exist

I love Leonard McKenize, love the character, but God I get so mad when anyone puts emphasis on his character as if he's more important than Fen, because that man was created to be a sexy sea captain who falls in love with his blue wife, and then "dies" so Fen can have angst, be forever tormented by the memory of her lost love and never remarry! Then is found alive but dies for real this time protecting Namor, so Namor can have angst over losing a father he never got a chance to know! This man's traits are being handsome, good at seafaring, loving his wife & son, and dying for them!!! That's it. He doesn't have a huge impact on Namor's life except through his absence and the fact that Namor had to grow up as a mixed race child not knowing one half of his parentage.

Submariner Summer 36

Ok fam who wants to #SubmarinerSummer part 36 read through with Marvel's first one-shot ever? Gather round for the interesting tale of--Iron Man and Sub-Mariner #1!

As I said in the last installment, Tales to Astonish came to an end. But not due to any failure. You see, in Marvel's distribution deal at the time, there was a hard cap on how many comics they could publish. That's why Hulk and Namor shared Astonish, and why Cap and Iron Man shared Suspense.

When Marvel was able to ditch that deal, their A-listers could get their own solo titles. Cap would take over Suspense, which ended at #99, and the Captain America solo book continued its numbering with its premiere being #100. Ditto the Hulk and Astonish; the last Astonish was #101, the first Incredible Hulk was #102

Iron Man and Namor would ALSO get their own titles, of course, but theirs start with shiny new #1s. But here's the thing...they each still had an unpublished half-length story meant to fit in a split title. So what to do? Well, publish a one-shot for the last Iron Man and Namor 1/2 stories

So yes, Iron Man and Sub-Mariner #1 continued the Iron Man and Namor stories from Suspense and Astonish, and the two stories had nothing to do with each other; the narratives in them would continue into the first issues of the two character's solo titles.

Namor, of course, was in the middle of his meeting with the Man Called Destiny. This tale is scripted by Roy Thomas, with Colan still on art, and it doesn't waste any time as Namor immediately strikes. Destiny, though, is way ahead of him, and why not, he reads minds

The battle is joined, but not for very long before the mind power of Destiny brings Namor to an icy halt. Then, as a Silver Age villain, he launches into a monologue sharing his origin story

He'd been a two-bit carnival mentalist, until learning that an Antarctic civilization had mastered telepathy. So he joins an Antarctic expedition...the same one Namor's father had led! McKenzie doesn't like him much, but they go onto the continent seeking the city of the Ancients

When they find it, Destiny tries to claim the power all for himself, but starts an avalanche that falls and traps him, but not before he finds the Helmet of Power. At this point in Destiny's story Namor breaks free and renews his assault

The Helmet of Power has enhanced Destiny's physical attributes as well as his mind powers, but physically Namor is still greater; and he's not just strong, he's fast, as Destiny finds out when he tries to shoot a sonic cannon at him that Namor handily dodges and wrecks

Unfortunately Namor goes overboard. He causes a cave-in when he throws the cannon, trapping himself under tons of ice. Destiny's Helmet saves him, and he gloats over his second victory over Namor, though we still don't know what the first one was.

A quick little clash for Namor setting up the villain's backstory, and leaving our hero deep in a trap of his own making. Its a lot of exposition, this ish; wild how much they could fit in those word balloons around some pretty action-y panels.

So, the one-shot is done, so where does that put us? Well, NEXT is a special origin issue to kick off the big premiere, because its time for Namor's full-fledged solo book! Prince Namor, The Sub-Mariner #1: Years Of Glory, Days of Doom!

[namor-the-submariner-dot-net]

Sunday Sub-Mariner's World

Though not one of Namor's most physically strong foes, Llyra has probably inflicted the most damage to him. She killed his wife, Lady Dorma, on their long awaited wedding day and had a hand in the murder of his father, Leonard McKenzie. IMO, she's was his cruelest arch nemesis.

Marvel Universe (1998) #1 - cute baby seal face 10/10

Marvel Universe (1998) #1 - feels like namor would be talking in a deep voice already, lol. 7/10

Avengers/Invaders (2008) #3 - at least his eyebrow game is already ahead of everyone else’s? -1000/10

Rating depictions of baby Namor let's go! I have six, but if anyone has any more they want to add, feel free! In chronological order:

Submariner comics (1941) #32:

Fucking adorable, little pointy eyebrows are too cute and he looks very comfortable and happy to help Fen. Goo! 9/10

Submariner comics (1941) #33:

Kind of obscured, but he's swaddled very comfortable-looking and people actually look happy to see him for once. 6/10

The Sub-Mariner (1968) #38

Aww! Little baby! Love them tiny hands and he looks very happy. Emperor Tha-Korr is not actively thinking about how much he hates him too! This will change. 10/10

The Saga of the Submariner (1988) #1

What the fuck why does he look like that? Why does his hair look so thick and coiffed? What the hell is going on with that expression? That's not a baby expression! I mean he looks like Namor but at what cost? Fucked up 1/10

Namor the Sub-Mariner (1990) #1

In sharp contrast to 1968, I love how Tha-Korr is thinking about all the ways he's going to call him a disappointment in the future in the background there. Namor looks ugly but in a normal baby way, not like whatever was going on in Saga of the Submariner. 7/10

What if? Sub-mariner (2006)

Pretty cute and normal, love his little pointy ears and sleepy expression. Not a ton of hair, which is much better. A tiny baby with a distinct widow's peak looks strange to me (as seen above in Saga of the Submariner). 6/10

In conclusion baby boy baby 100/10 saga of the submariner get help (only in respect to the baby the rest of the book is fine)
