    So you thought Thor was just about the worst candidate for date material? Well, Namor is even worse.

    It is true that arrogance can be one of the worst personality traits. It can’t be worse than when it exists in a boyfriend. Namor literally speaks arrogance wherever he goes and he will never let you forget it. He will never listen to you if you have a different opinion of something than him, and think that his own opinion is always right. This sort of treatment can never harbor a truly great relationship. Even if you do something nice for Namor, like make him lunch, he’ll find a way to criticize you. If you try to take him to a picnic or to the movies, he’ll remind you what a waste of time that was even months after the event. Even if you are his girlfriend, he’ll remind you to call him “Prince Namor” and your mother to call him "King of Atlantis."

    Namor’s intelligence isn’t superb either. He is also a mere two out of seven in the official marvel ratings. What do you expect from a guy who goes around shouting “Imperious Rex” and relies on brawn over his brain?

    Namor isn’t a wealthy successful figure either. He’s never bothered to be concerned about anything pertaining to humans (well other than hitting on blondes) and he wouldn’t have any cash. The Atlanteans probably still use an outdated barter system with sea shells and rocks collected from the ocean floor. Something like that wouldn’t have any value in the market, but who knows, maybe you can hit gold with the Native Americans who sold the island of Manhattan for such things. But then again, the Native Americans don’t have an abundant supply of land anymore and they are more intelligent so they might turn aggressive. So make sure you bring that muscular Namor along if things get ugly, but he might get offended that you are selling off his treasure. Talk about catching a break!

    Namor totally has loot. He has all the sunken treasure of the sea. He used it once to become a film producer to make a Fabtastic Four movie, although he planned on killing them and banging Sue.

    Still a jerk though.

    The last pic is from Secret Invasion Dark Reign #1.  It's clearly a bad joke by Bendis and Maleev, as that's not the way Maleev drew Namor on the cover.  There's even been conjecture that it was Maleev using Bendis as a picture ref.  It's pretty much regarded, even by Namor haterz as an OOC portrayal.

    More likely, a perfect example of bad writing on Bendis' part.  But even so, Namor is acting like that, like he doesn't know Emma Frost, to protect her.  So, while not the best example, it is an example of Namor's charisma, i.e. his habit of trying to keep the ladies from harm.

    Namor has the best Celebrity fan as far as I am aware of (Johnny Depp)  
     
    Fingers crossed that Christopher Walken is a fan of Magneto or Xavier though... aha... uhm.. nyeh.
