Welcome to a Namor Advent Calendar! Have a bit of Namor cheer for each of the 24 days till Christmas! This year I’ll be highlighting Namor Team-Ups!
DAY 16: ATTUMA
Attuma and Namor in a team-up??? I couldn’t have imagined it happening. But today, Kurt Busiek did it in King In Black Namor #1. Granted, it was a long time ago, when these enemies first met as teenagers!
Oh wait! I forgot that Namor and Attuma teamed up in Robinson’s Squadron Supreme. Probably because I’ve tried to forget this awful book. Also, like Namor, I find it hard to believe Attuma cares at all for Atlantis.

DAY 17: HOPE SUMMERS
Namor and Hope Summers had few interactions during Namor’s time with the X-Men, but they were memorable!
I don’t know if Kieron Gillen had read Namor and Namorita’s stories, but he certainly picked up on the entertaining dynamic between them in Bill Everett’s stories, and then updated it with a twist.
This final scene between is perfect, pure Gillen gold, and showcases how awesome they are together. I mean how many times do we see Namor relaxed and trusting enough to joke with someone?
Namor and Hope had another team-up in the Escape From the Negative Zone arc, where Namor is for some reason driven violently psychotic by the arid conditions of the Negative Zone (yet this lack of water doesn’t seem to effect Namor’s strength). Hope absorbs Namor’s mutant ability to keep him occupied as they escape back to Earth. And Hope shares how she really feels about Namor.
Sadly, the final team-up, I believe, was after AvX. Hope may have been the only person to ask about Namor after being possessed by the Phoenix.
And Hope is the only person who Namor has even tried to talk with about his experience.

DAY 18: TIGER SHARK
Hard to believe, but yes, Tiger Shark and Namor did team-up before Jason Aaron’s Defenders of the Deep story. One time. Once.
In the awesome Bob Harras and Jae Lee Suma-Ket arc, we find a less … villainous Tiger Shark living under the name Arlys, married to an Atlantean, and expecting a child! Of course, such happiness can’t last, and the family is attacked by the Faceless Ones. Tamara Rahn saves Tiger Shark, but not before his pregnant wife is killed. Tamara convinces Tiger Shark he can pursue his vengeance by allying with Namor and Atlantis, as they learn that the Faceless Ones are minions of Suma-Ket and Artys Gran!
Of course, Namor and Tiger Shark’s actual team-Up mostly involves them arguing / fighting or getting chained up together. Hmmmmm.
And when Namor loses to Suma-Ket, Tiger Shark isn’t exactly … sad.
While we never have seen this more … rational Tiger Shark again, I’ve always wanted to see writers develop this particular Namor rogue more fully. GIven he actually was made with Namor’s DNA, I think he’s full of potential.

DAY 19: THE THING
To be honest, there really isn’t much love lost between Namor and Ben Grimm, the Ever Lovin’ Blue Eyed Thing, so finding panels, much less comics, where they team-up.
Marvel Two-in-One 28 is one of those rare comics. It starts out with Namor actually being nice, instead of a misunderstanding or slug fest.
Namor is attacked by a group of Piranha Men-Fish (don’t ask) and when Thing, pushed by Alicia, goes to help Namor, both are captured (don’t ask) who force the pair into gladiator games (don’t ask).
Namor is unusually nice in this issue, trying to avoid the slugfest, and suggesting plans to save Alicia.

DAY 20: MAN-THING
I think this is the only time Namor and Man-Thing (sort of) team-up and it was a poetic, trippy art masterpiece! I say ‘sort of’ because Man-Thing seemed to be possessed by other spirits, or versions of himself. This team-up doesn’t start with a fight, but by a Neptune directed quest to the Nexus of All Realities …
… where he meets Man-Thing who ‘sings’ to him. “Child of the sea,” it caroled. “Child of the earth. A wounded, raging soul from birth. Devil’s ears, angel’s wings …” – which is such a perfect take on Namor.
They end up going to the ancient past, and visiting Atlantis before it sank, and encounter the Atlantean goddess Cleito, to fulfill their quest.

DAY 21: TRITON
One of my favorite team-ups, this issue was actually the second part of the story of Namor and Triton’s first meeting. Sub-Mariner 2 has a more iconic cover, in fact it appears on a T-shirt, but this one is special to me. Plus this team-up is actually held together by chaining Namor and Triton together like Sidney Poitier and Tony Curtis in THE DEFIANT ONES! Bound by an energy bracelet, Namor and Triton are forced to work together to save London, and to discover what sort of person they are chained to.
After defeating Plantman, the team-up becomes a budding friendship. Triton’s relationship with Namor is now practically ignored, especially during the Inhumans push, but when Namor had his own book, Triton appeared regularly and was a good friend, as well as an ambassador to the surface world. It was Triton who announced Namor’s engagement to Lady Dorma to the UN. It was Triton who saved Namor’s life, and got him a new costume, when he brought the chemically poisoned Namor to Reed Richards. And it was Triton and Namor, in an Oscar worthy acting performance, who worked together to save Susan and Reed Richards marriage in Fantastic Four 149.
I’m not sure the last time these two team-up. The last I remember seeing was in the Inhumans mini-series by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee, and that Triton had an altered history with Namor, that appeared to ignore continuity, including the fact that it was Triton who had a part in the catastrophic raising of Atlantis.

DAY 22: SPIDER-MAN
Today’s team-up is from an actual team-up book, Marvel Team-Up 14. Unlike the previous two team-ups, Namor and Spider-Man’s co-operative adventures usually started with a misunderstanding, followed by a fight, followed by realization, followed, finally, by the team-up. Namor and Spidey just never seemed to get along when they first meet. It may have something to do with Spider-Man’s cocky quipping and Namor’s prickly personality.
But once matters are explained and apologies offered, Namor and Spider-Man combine their powers in the true spirit of team-up. Yes, Namor is the power boat for a water skiing Spidey.
Bonus picture! Spider-Man actually teams up with Namor to defeat the trumpet tooting Doctor Doom in Spidey Super Stories 53!

DAY 23: NAMORA
Another team-up from the Golden Age and another first appearance.
Pay no attention to the Original Human Torch trying to horn in on this team-up on the cover. Jim Hammond doesn’t appear in Namora and Namor’s story.
Golden Age Namor is again very reasonable about his team-ups – just asking him seems to be work most the time.
Namora first appeared late in 1947, and by the Atlas era sadly seems to have taken Lady Dorma’s place as Namor’s Atlantean ‘sidekick.’ But she delivers such classic team-ups as this one, where Namor “infiltrates” a water show and is forced to wear this amazing costume, affectionately known as, “FIN!”

DAY 24: LADY DORMA
In honor of the upcoming King In Black Namor mini-series by Kurt Busiek, I’m starting with Namor’s very first team-up, in Marvel Comics #1, which was with Lady Dorma!
Unlike many future team-ups, this one doesn’t start with Namor fighting with Dorma. Instead, Lady Dorma does what she usually does, i.e. insist on joining Namor on his adventure. The first 8 pages of this story is actually a reprint of Bill Everett’s story for Motion Picture Funnies Weekly #1. Lady Dorma isn’t in those pages, but in the new pages that Bill Everett drew specifically for Marvel Comics #1.
Bonus picture, the original art of the last page of the story, which is also the oldest piece of Marvel art in existence. It also shows Lady Dorma is no shrinking violet, but a capable companion.
