Stories

Years of Glory -- Day of Doom! · 20 pages
Buried under tons of ice by Destiny, Namor's thoughts drift back to his mother Princess Fen's meeting with Captain McKenzie and his boyhood in Atlantis. He remembers fighting Destiny, who defeats him and sends Namor to New York for a five-year break while Destiny goes into suspended animation to perfect his powers. With his memory gone, Namor wanders the Bowery as a derelict until he is accidentally found by Johnny Storm and recovers his memory.

Publisher’s description

Continued from Iron Man and Sub-Mariner #1! An amnesiac Sub-Mariner is trapped under tons of ice, but Destiny decides to toy with Atlantis’ King further by producing memories he hasn't yet recovered!
