I told you I had a few more big projects coming in 2024 that had yet to be announced. Here's the first one. I've been working on this new NAMOR series for a while now, and it's similar to my last PUNISHER series in that each issue is 30 pages and divided between two artists, with one doing the present day scenes and another handling flashbacks. For Namor, Paul Davidson is tackling the present, as we see Namor locked in a surface world prison, hoping he never again has to enter the seven seas. But as usual, war comes calling. And Alex Lins is doing flashbacks from throughout the Sub-Mariner's long, troubled life, showing us how he ended up becoming the complicated king/hero/villain we know.
There's a new interview over at Marvel.com that sheds some more light on things, story-wise, and also gives you your first look at some interior artwork. But just in general, I've described this series as a combination of my work on PUNISHER and THOR, in that it's a dark and intimate character exploration of Marvel's first true anti-hero and also a sprawling war story that serves to redefine the entire wondrous landscape of the undersea world.
See you under the sea.

“LAST KING OF ATLANTIS”
War rages beneath the waves, from the lost cities of the Secret Seas to the fathomless depths where the Elder Whales reign. Seven kings, old and new, fight to rule the watery realm. But where is Namor, the once mighty Sub-Mariner? He’s sitting behind bars on the surface, with no intention of ever setting foot in the seas again. So begins an oversized Atlantean event that will forever reshape the landscape of the undersea world while at last laying bare the dark history of Atlantis and its fiercest, most infamous defender.
An epic that will redefine the King of the Seas in the manner of Jason Aaron’s PUNISHER series!
