Description

When this page popped up in a prominent dealer's update, I was like wow, that is a cool piece of Marvel Magic by Sal, a sweet Sub-Mariner battle page with some great panels...and the price seemed not so bad so I pulled the trigger! I like this page enough that I decided to revise my related galleries to give this a natural place to land so now looking for more Imperius Rex! pages

Sweet page with great sense of action anatomy done to show power and rage.  All the poses with great range of motion and some strikes are with full extension!

Great last 2 panels. What a way to finish each other's sentences.

When Red Raven strikes, you can hear a tree fall in the forest. But when Namor lands a blow..... KTOW! 

Nice, dynamic battle page!

Gorgeous battle page! Especially love that third panel! Buscema and Esposito really knocked this one out of the park!

I love that the six panels are a complete sequence in and of themselves.  Panel 1 - the encounter.  Panel 2 - trapped in a deathgrip, Panel 3 - the escape, Panel 4 - the villains power, Panel 5 - impending defeat, Panel 6 - TRIUMP!  Really almost a perfect self contained page.  Just a great, great, pickup!  Congrats!

Awesome action-packed goodness!

(or is that "bad-ass-ness"?)

Wonderful! Brilliant Sal artwork, and plenty of action. The pose of Red Raven (viewed from the level of his legs) really accentuates the 'otherness' of that strange being. Great page!

Rope-a-doped! KTOW! I love Sal battle pages. Everything is extreme, with haymakers sending people flying all over, and each blow is Super Charged. Panels 2 and 3 couldn't be more Sal if they tried. Awesome. Big congrats!
