Folk:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Luther Robinson and Lynne Harris! These folks are hard to categorize! They’re not villains, despite being antagonists to Namor the Sub-Mariner, because Namor is very much a villain at least half of the time. They’re not heroes, despite eventually allying with Namor to fight Nazis, because they definitely attempt to commit at least one genocide against the people of Atlantis. <\/p>\n

They’re adventurers, they’ve both been surgically modified by Atlantean scientists to be amphibious, and Lynne is one of a long line of women to be abducted by Namor with romantic ill-intent (and she’s, like, third one, <\/i>in a mere handful of stories). They’re interesting artifacts of the way comic book universes come together, and that’s great.<\/p>\n

(Marvel Mystery Comics v1 010-026 (sporadically), 1940-1941) <\/p>\n

Whether this is Namor’s personal flag\/ crest or a more general Atlantean symbol, this bit of regalia must be noted. (Marvel Mystery Comics v1 018, 1941)<\/p>\n
