There is something down there in the murky depths -- something far closer to God than man -- and it has been waiting for Stein for a long, long time.

    By casting Namor as a mythological beast of sorts, Milligan presents a premise that breathes new life into a character that has long been relegated to secondary status. None of this would matter if the premise didn't work, but Sub Mariner: Depths sells its intent resoundingly well. No pun intended, I'm sure this book is sailing below quite a few people's radars, which is a shame, because Milligan and Ribic have started this series with a reverberating bang. Read Full Review

    So, in the end, I'd recommend this as a good read with pretty, painted art, but I don't know if it's worth bothering with in the monthly format. You'll definitely want to give it a look in its prestige hardback format (at least, it seems that way this early in the game), but as a pamphlet it is leaving something to be desired.

    So far, not so good. Namor deserves a little more then this. The last modern story we got from him had Namor and his people relocating to Doom country. How about a little of that? Read Full Review
