Wakanda and Namor’s Atlantis Complicated History Explained

I have to imagine that thousands of years of war started when Namor wouldn’t share his wing shoe things. Atlantis and Wakanda, the modern day warring families who represent one of the greatest tumultuous relationships in all of Marvel comics. They’ve had a very long history of competition, and are led by two of the strongest leaders in the pages of the comic books. T’Challa on one side, Namor the Sub Mariner on the other. Two of the most advanced civilizations on the planet Earth constantly at odds with each other makes for some great content, and the MCU is about to bring this confrontation to the forefront, likely with its own MCU twist. So what is this complicated history behind this even more complicated relationship? Let’s find out right now.

Both Wakanda and Atlantis are ancient civilizations. They have extremely old roots that go back far beyond their conflict of origin. So let's set the scene, just what are these ancient origins of these two incredibly advanced civilizations. Each of these incredibly Advanced kingdoms were ruled by great people, who would eventually go on to become superheroes in Protectors of Earth, not just their own countries. However, they tend to be a little, what's the word? Stubborn? Yeah I think that's safe to say. Truth be told, I think we're in for the next great rivalry of the MCU and one that will be unlike any we have seen before. Which nation do you think will come out on top when the two go to war in Black Panther Wakanda Forever?

Which aspects of this relationship between these two civilizations do you think we'll see in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever?

[NickEclipse]

It’s truly a shame. I remember first hearing about the Namor rumors and I literally dreamed of a T’Challa vs Namor. But I’m happy with what we have instead. Mad respect to Chadwick

[senecavanzandt]

U know one thing that Namor and T'Challa have in common?? They both had a thing for Sue Storm. Only, T'Challa had respect for Susan's marriage to Reed; Namor was all on that Mr. Steal Your Girl energy...

[generk]

You know I never understood why people miss those they don’t know. But I understand when Chadwick was taken from us.

Namor's always been one of my main dudes since I was 16-17 (I'm 49 now btw). He was a part of Cap's Invaders team during WWII, a member of the Illuminati, a (begrudgingly) on again, off again Avenger & an X-Men member. He's a mutant w/ Superhuman strength lifting 90 tons on land and well over 100 tons underwater, Flight, he's bulletproof, he's also one 4 or 5 guys who've one-shotted the Hulk, but then they want me to believe that he could be stabbed in the chest by a Vibranium dagger 🗡? Really bro? Nah, I call bullshit. They completely missed me w/that. I'm not buying that at 100% off for free!
Dude is a straight beast bro

This Namor is not the real Namor will never be Aztec...never

[vernonedmonds]

In the comics, Namor has a weakness. He weakens the longer he’s out of water

[princendhlovu]

You are all soo negative and salty in the comment section😵

[Jamie_Winsh]

I'm so excited to see the wakanda and Atlantis war on the big screen. Also u know what would be awesome? If they didn't kill Namor off by the end of the film and because Namor is actually an anti hero, they keep him alive and in the future of the MCU Namor fight alongside the avengers in the fight against Kang and the big threats to come. I mean let's face it they probably will kill him off but it they shouldn't! They should have him be a hero too. That would be much more of a compelling thing to do

[liamfarrell]

His name is Mr nimbus and he controls the police.. duh

[christopherhowarth]

Great, so the movie won't have Black Panther or the Sub-Mariner in it. Hard pass.

[joiedevie]

Namor is a major powerhouse of Marvel and one of the most complex characters in comics. Hope this rendition does him justice.

[citysearchtv]

There are two different takes of the character Namor one in the comics that go way back and the other in the movie Wakanda Forever,

[morningwaves]

Sadly this Namor is not the one from Marvel Comics. He’s not even from Atlantis anymore. Horrible decision by MCU. What a waste….

[streetjustices]

I hope they don't kill Namor off on his 1st movie he needs a solo movie.
Because he was an avenger once or fight along side the avengers, 1 of the 2.
Either way he's a hero not a villan.

[teresajenkins]

I watch Black Panther 2 today. They did a great job.

[coryjames]

Bro put some emotion in your voice, This was hard to listen to... Love the channel but damn bro

[erickennedy]

I believe in Wakanda Forever there will be alot of young Namor and young T'Challa backstory scenes

[barneymiller]

Not sure this is Namor as I don’t recognize anything but the winged feet. No T’challa. So wakanda vs Atlantis and no Black Panther and no Namor. Not sure what is interesting

[jeffkrug]

This is not the Namor from the comics.There is no Atlantis in the movie. I'm guessing this is Disney's way to get around the Universal movie rights. Basically it's a new character. They can't even say Namor the way we know it.
