DescriptionCover dated October 2009.“Dark Reign” is easily my favorite Marvel crossover so far this century, which is why this was an early OA pickup of mine when I first jumped into this hobby of ours. With Namor’s recent MCU debut in “Wakanda Forever,” I thought it was a good time to post this. Namor and the White Queen were members of Norman Osborn’s evil Cabal, although they played both sides of the aisle. Leonard Kirk did a fabulous job on this story featuring the two, with Namor doing his best to seduce Ms. Frost in this story. Is there any woman Namor isn’t trying to get with? Social/Sharing |

His hybrid physiology makes him more "vigorous" ;)
Good looking page from Kirk, especially the extreme forced perspective on the figures in panel one.

A great looking page by the Canadian based American, providing great storytelling while bringing our two nations together. Oh, and of course he's trying to get with Frost. He's a horny Atlantean and he knows she has bedded down with too many guys to keep track of, so it's a natural.

That's all I wanted
Something mackerel, clams and pollock
In your thighs
For just fin movement
To have cod and haddock
On the side
Sometimes I think that you'll Namor
Under the sea
Leonard Kirk’s art is forever
Say it can be, whoa
That's what you baited
Today’s special, hooked on mutants
Fisch your thighs
Just for one moment
To be raw and naked
Sushi time
Sometimes I think that you're Emma
She can read me
But under the sea together
We'd be happy, oh oh
I will be your first Invaders
(Oh baby)
Flap my ankle wings and fly
(I'd love to)
I’m underwater ruler
(Be your daddy)
Anything Kirk draws in lines
(It would make me)
I will be your Namor traitor
(Very happy)
I have had enough of brine
(Please let me)
I will be the one who hooked you
To the end of line

If Namor and George Michael had ever had a sexiest man competition, the universe would have collapsed into itself under the pressure of having to pick a winner.

Oh Namor ... you sly dog ... such a way with women. "Be silent! I feel ... I know ... the answer to you question is in there. I don't know what it is. I'm going to see. You may do as you wish." Seriously, the guy oozes charm and self confidence. And what an awesome page. Congrats!

Wicked cool page, Michael. I love the slope of the panels here; it adds velocity to Namor's explosion of speed in the top panel, dovetails perfectly into the second horizontal panel (both setting the scene and working to keep the reader's eye sliding towards the black cave on the right) and then lending a claustrophobic bent to the bottom panel, as it feels like the walls close in around them... Gorgeous use of negative space at the bottom there, too; Namor's fish-scale tunic is used SO well there. I'm in complete agreement about how excellent Dark Reign was! Great pick up and timely post, Michael! Leonard Kirk Imperius Wrecks this one!

Fabulous description of the page, and I agree completely about the tunic. I've always thought Namor looks much more regal in the tunic than he does in just his traditional swimsuit.

Dark Reign was definitely a fun arc - great page from it here! Money splash up top with Namor straight speeding, followed by some more shadowed panels as he enters the cave. Killer stuff by Kirk. I need to get a piece by him soon. Congrats!
