Namor: Last King of Atlantis - by Jason Aaron (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Blockbuster writer Jason Aaron redefines Namor the Sub-Mariner and his undersea world!

War rages beneath the waves, from the lost cities of the Secret Seas to the fathomless depths where the Elder Whales reign. Seven kings, old and new, fight to rule the watery realm. But where is Namor, the once mighty Sub-Mariner? He's sitting behind bars on the surface, with no intention of ever setting foot in the seas again. But barbarian hordes have gathered on the sunless plains of Attumacht Deep, 28,000 feet below the waves. They howl with bloodlust, ready to scour every inch of ocean to find the most hated traitor in all the seas. So begins an Atlantean event that will forever reshape the landscape of the undersea world -- while at last laying bare the dark history of Atlantis and its fiercest, most infamous defender!

About the Author

Writer Jason Aaron's early collaboration with artist Cameron Stewart on DC/Vertigo's The Other Side was named one of the Washington Post's Best Comics of 2007. His next project, Scalped, garnered industry-wide praise and led to a guest spot on Wolverine, beginning Aaron's long association with Logan on various titles, as well as the rest of Marvel's merry mutants on books including X-Men: Schism, Wolverine & the X-Men and Amazing X-Men. Aaron rocked the Marvel Universe with Original Sin and unfolded a status-quo-shattering Asgardian epic across multiple Thor titles. He was the ideal choice to steer the Rebel crew of Star Wars into new adventures on the series' return to Marvel, and he ushered in a new era for the publisher with Marvel Legacy. In the wake of that one-shot, he took on Earth's Mightiest Heroes in Avengers and welcomed another iconic property back to the House of Ideas with Conan the Barbarian.

UK concept artist and illustrator Paul Davidson's first work for Marvel came on mutant-universe titles Dark X-Men: The Beginning and New Mutants, and he has continued the association on books including Magneto, X-Factor and X-Men: Legacy.
