gotta say once more that Namor Haters are just so weird bc Namor fans are not out here harassing people or anything, and the character is literally fictional but the way I hear the haters talk about Namor it's so insane, because to them he's the worst thing ever created, lmao.

like that is lines on a paper, he's not gonna hurt you, promise.

[namorweek]

Magneto doing weird shit

Ominous + Logan hair

Kinda looks like he's frying an egg

Astral projection baby! To visit Namor no less.

This one isn't so weird, but I wanted to demonstrate that he's perfectly capable of clothing himself at will. He's done this from residual ferrous particles before.

So why are you naked here, old man?

'Michael Xavier'

Is surprised by a dramatic security system he'd forgotten - to get the last word lol. Completely in character, of course.

Chuck attacks his brain and he attacks back somehow, while also undoing the screws in his chair.

And off he goes!

Hmm, now that it's officially Summer, maybe I should do a Namor solo read through and do some posts about it, starting with "The Quest for Neptune's Trident" in Tales to Astonish. Have myself a Submariner Summer, so to speak

🤔

Yeah it’s either we get people who woobify Namor or demonize him, there’s no middle ground for either group.

Namor is one of the most morally complex characters and they just want to put him in one box regardless of character.

Today I found out that there's a certain group of fans who defend Namor killing Queen Ramonda by saying "well maybe he didn't mean to kill her". And holy shit that is hilarious.

Folks, he literally said "if you do this thing I will kill you." Ramonda then did the thing, and one of Namor's people died. So he killed her.

It actually kinda irks me because it's taking away the complexity of his character, you know? It is no better in my opinion than the people on the other end calling him a villain. He is neither hero nor villain. Antagonist yes, but not a villain. There's a difference. The only true villain in the story is that US government bitch stirring shit up.

We are in a Namor drought because there's nothing lined up for him in the comics or movies for a long time, so it's time to go back to older comics and visit all the fanworks. Namor Nation never lets me down ❤️ 🔱

Yes, Namor says “Imperius Rex” in Yucatec Mayan both times if my hearing is right for the time just before he threw the water bombs at Queen Ramonda and Riri, it’s translated in English subtitles the second time.

Imperius Rex being put in as a nod to the comic fans was confirmed by the Production Designer, Hannah Beachler (source)

Fan close up photo of Namor’s spear (source)

From Namor Nation a fan gave this translation

CH'A TOH AJ TEPAL! (IMPERIUS REX)

Ch'a = Bring Toh= watch- alert/awareness  aj= lineage Tepal= prosperity/good governance

So to me that could possibly read as “To bring watch/awareness/ to my lineage for prosperity/good rule” ?

I go into details about Imperius Rex in the comics

Imperius = Empire Rex = King

So that could be viewed as “For the Empire and King” because in the comics Namor was not the first person to say “Imperius Rex” and before it became known as only his catchphrase it was constantly used by all the Atlanteans. We know this changes when there is a female monarch because the phrase then becomes “Imperius Regina”, Regina = Queen. Sometimes in the comics (and fans) spell as Imperious but that is incorrect because that spelling was only used a few times in the 90s comics, any other time including the first appearance of the word was always Imperius.

It was very exciting to see Namor say “Imperius Rex!” on screen! Here is a video taken by NamorCosplay of Tenoch saying Imperius Rex for Namor Nation at the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Premiere (source)

However personally I feel “¡Líik’ik Talokan!” = “Talokan Rises” has taken the place of Imperius Rex as a rallying cry for all Talokanil in the mcu universe as Imperius Rex was a rallying cry for Atlanteans in the comics universe.

This phrase was actually because of Alex Livianalli who felt that the Talokanil needed something of theirs that matched the intensity of “Wakanda Forever” so the Mayan Teacher, Josué Maychi, (who plays The Shaman in the movie) came up with the words and the gesture. (Source one, two, three ).

After viewing Wakanda Forever again, I think Namor says his catch phrase "Imperius Rex" twice. I could be wrong. But he yells something before throwing the water bombs at Ramonda and the caption just says "speaking Mayan" but I think it's the same as at the end with Shuri.

Can anyone who speaks Yucatec Maya confirm or deny?

Devilry dancing in her blood

Or Evas adventures in the Eva-verse

For @raincoffeeandfandoms blog birthday OC celebration 🎂

Enjoy!!!!!

It is strange how she got here.

To this place she knew was her destiny and she pretended she could avoid it.

Eva was born to rule high society, marry a great rich man and ensure they could rise as high as far as Saint Peter’s Gates in her generation or the next.

She drinks the tequila quickly before she lost her nerve.

The witch still gets nervous before these events, you know.

When she was fifteen her mother introduced her to the secret passed down to them from Lydia Chapul de Aramburu who took a shot of tequila before receiving her lover at the home she rebuilt from scratch.

Eva takes one last look at the mirror and sees the nervous fifteen year old girl so hopeful in a pink ball gown that once belonged to her grandmother.

To think all the hell that broke loose when she became a woman in the eyes of society.

To think how she came to discover who she was and what she would never be during those dark years between her fifteenth birthday and her twenty-first.

That she would leave and start over in a strange country that hated her for being different and yet rise just as she her great-great-grandmother did when she chose to change her last name from Aramburu to Arambula after sending Emperor Agustín to his death.

“They are ready for you, Mrs. Shelby.” Tommy says from outside the dressing room door.

There was probably something bad about drinking so early in the morning, but she needs it.

Besides it just one measly shot.

Just to settle her nerves and keep her from being nauseous or worse throwing up on Tommy during her vows .

Could you imagine if it went viral?

Mexican heiress vomits on English groom.

No, señor, she is not letting that happen.

There can’t be anything going wrong today.

It can go to shit tomorrow, today is her fucking wedding day.

After one last look in the mirror, Eva reaches for the door.

She keeps a bottle of tequila for emergencies such as these.

The first true meeting between Wakanda and Talokan to cement their alliance.

Maybe if K’uk’ulkan had not killed Ramonda thinking they had killed her or not have Wakanda declare war in revenge, this wouldn’t be making her so nervous.

She is dressed in Talokanil regalia, the only difference is that her headdress is a replica of Montezuma’s and black as squid ink with pearls and silver white vibranium holding it together.

She wears the pearls Ch’ah Toh Almehen , or as his enemies know him, Namor, gave her that magical night they met and te pearl bracelet woven for his mother with the fibers of the plant that save him and his people.

She has been the Witch Queen of Talokan since 1920 and yet this meeting has her biting her nails from the anxiety.

When she opens the curtain door she will be where she needs to be, she tells herself after fixing the endless ropes of the most perfect pearls the God King of Talokan could find.

It is over.

The last of the Shelbys are dead or hiding and now begins their reign.

The rubies are as red as the blood on her hands and the dress as black as her soul.

The Empress has completed her transformation and tonight she comes to stand by her Emperor as they celebrate their victory.

The black velvet is fine and warm, but the chill in her bones creeps in still.

The tequila does enough to quell it, but it’s there.

Something is going to happen the moment she opens that door.

But she must open it and see what’s behind it.

“You said you only needed a minute, maga, it’s been ten.” Her husband said impatiently.

“You can’t hurry perfection, Luca.” The witch laughed despite the pit in her stomach and opened the door.

She shouldn’t have been drinking.

She is pregnant with their first and second.

Twin boys.

Perfect little boys with their father’s looks and her desire to fight for what is right.

Eva can’t wait to tell Jack.

He has been great, sure there were some close calls and she’s had to threaten his secretary, but he wouldn’t stray.

Eva won’t let him.

But he could, her magic has been acting strange since she conceived.

And some men don’t like fucking their pregnant wives and after because the body changes for the occasion.

Will he still find her desirable?

Will he stop being her devoted husband who can’t go a day without her?

There is only one way to find out.

“Next time you want to fuck with magic, Evie, count me out.” Tommy said and she laughed at his words.

Fuck?

Fuckity fuck fuck.

Fuck!

Not again.

Eva Shelby, formerly Eva Smallwood opens the door of her dressing room to step into her old house in Veracruz and sees five other Evas walk into the courtyard as confused as her.

“Did we play with magic again?” an older Eva asks her, and it takes her a moment to realize that this was the Eva she switched places with.

“Why are you old, we are the same age?” she asks herself and her lookalike scoffs.

“Forty isn’t old, Smallwood.” Eva Shelby answered.

“Neither is 129, Lady Smallwood.” The fae looking queen who isn’t a day over twenty-five says with a glare.

“What is going on?” an Eva ,with a more pronounced American accent says wearing a baby blue day dress and having the aura of twin baby boys, asks the one question she might be able to answer.

But the sixth Eva beats her to the punch.

Somehow there is a darker, bloodier aura to her. The cold of death sticking to her like perfume.

“The Multiverse has been broken."

Perhaps today signals the birth of a new maturity for the human race—and a new age dawning for all the people of earth.
