The Avengers and Namor’s Complicated History Explained

Опубликовано 16 декабря 2022, 13:45

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever introduced us to a brand new antagonist within the MCU: Namor. There are some differences between the Namor we saw in Black Panther 2 and the one that exists in the comic books but overall the MCU iteration is a good screen adaptation. The biggest difference being that in the comics Namor fights to protect Atlantis and in Wakanda Forever he fights to protect Talokan. Namor is the main antagonist in the film and we haven’t seen the last of him since there are several story arcs that have him teaming up with The Avengers and others where he is strongly opposing them. Which way will Namor lean within the MCU? Will he be more of the already established antagonist or will something (or someone) bring him to the protagonistic side against a greater evil? Only time will tell and all we can do right now is speculate and theorize until we see him again on screen.

The Black Panther and Namor have a complicated history since Namor took many innocent lives while trying to completely submerge Wakanda while he was in possession of the Phoenix Force. It is true that Namor deploys similar plans in Wakanda Forever but the motivations are different in the film compared to the comic books. It will be interesting to see if Wakanda and Namor will be able to set aside their grievances to team up as Avengers or if Namor will continue to be a thorn in the Black Panthers side.

Do you think Namor will stay a villain within the MCU? Do you think he will team up with The Avengers? What do you think of the onscreen adaptation of the character? Let us know in the comments and thank you for watching.
