But Why Tho? - William Tucker
Dec 21, 2022Namor the Sub-Mariner - Conquered Shores #3 is expanding the world whilst staying focused. It is so fascinating to see Cantwell explore the remnants of the Marvel Universe, with aged characters and broken landmarks. But the book doesnt get ahead of itself or throw easter eggs in for the sake of it. If it appears, it has a purpose, a reason to still be alive. The art and the dialogue are all incredibly emotive and full of personality. It is so lovely that Cantwell is bringing some characters that I havent seen in years, tapping into decades of history for an alternate universe. Read Full Review

Jan 03, 2023Namor: Conquered Shores #3 deepens the mystery behind the Human Torch's presence and deepens the feelings of mistrust between Namor and his allies. The pacing is solid, and the reveals are surprising, but the plot direction isn't very clear, and the dialog is very stiff. Read Full Review

I believe this issue to be the best so far as it sets up for a (hopefully) powerful finale through issues #4 & 5. The mystery deepens and Namor and the Original Torch final meet. I look forward to what comes next!

It's just okay but it's at least a very entertaining ok story.

Some interesting plot developments come out of this trip to Latveria, and I think the way they intersect with the exploration of Namor's character is fascinating. But it's all conveyed with tremendous subtlety, maybe too much subtlety. The surprise guest star is a pretty corny gimmick, too.

This issue starts out strong and then dies a quick death. I love the stuff with the Doombots, but then Frankenstein is introduced out of left-field. His being in Latveria makes no sense. Obviously, Cantwell is a fan of the original movie because even the little girl looks like she's out of time and from the original. Then Frankenstein admits he was wrong and they all talk about their feelings...? Come on, give me a break. After the first five pages this is a complete reversal of the Namor character. He just wouldn't act like this.
