The Avengers check out a hydro-base belonging to Sting-Ray, after the FAA prevents the team from launching Quinjets at the mansion. Namor shows up during the tour in a foul mood, but is in better spirits after a duel with Hercules. Cap offers Namor a spot on the Avengers roster, and the prickly king of Atlantis happily accepts! Namor’s introductory issue as member of the Avengers!
