[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #9, Jul. 1989] Why does the archway to Magneto’s base look like Black Bolt’s cowl!? Namor meets more heroes as we continue our Silver Age recap. [#cmro M7513]

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #8, Jun. 1989] Is this from Avengers #2 where Namor and the Hulk team up against the Avengers?? I might have the issue wrong, but I know it’s pretty early in the Avengers run. [#cmro M7512]

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #7, May 1989] The Saga of the Sub-Mariner continues into the Silver Age, with all the baggage that comes with it! I feel like this half of the series should go more quickly, since it’s covering more familiar ground. [#cmro M7511]

This week’s logo features the first half of the Saga of the Sub-Mariner limited series, covering the history of Namor’s birth and his adventures through the Golden Age! #marvel #cmro #mda

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #6, Apr. 1989] I never read the Sub-Mariner stories from the later ’40s and ’50s, so I’m really curious about what’s going to happen here! [#cmro M7510]

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #5, Mar. 1989] The history of the Sub-Mariner has reached World War II, and his time as a member of the Invaders! [#cmro M7509]

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #4, Feb. 1989] We’re up to the events of Marvel Mystery Comics #8–9, where the Sub-Mariner first encounters the Human Torch, kicking off decades of Marvel crossovers! [#cmro M7508]

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #3, Jan. 1989] Namor goes to war against the surface world, and Betty Dean enters the picture! [#cmro M7507]

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #2, Dec. 1988] This limited series is doing a good job of assembling various aspects of Namor’s origin into one cohesive timeline. In this issue, we get another look at the very first Sub-Mariner story from way back in Marvel Comics #1! [#cmro M7506]

[Saga of the Sub-Mariner #1, Nov. 1988] I’m not sure I’m ready for another multi-issue storyline about the king of a faraway land, but it appears I have no choice. Get ready for the Saga of the Sub-Mariner! [#cmro M7505]

There has been a weird sci-fi/alternate-universe vibe in the most recent issues, and this week’s logo reflects that! Death’s Head is having adventures in the future; Captain Pica—I mean, Xavier is out in space; and Katie Power visits a pocket dimension! #marvel #cmro #mda

[Power Pack #47, Jul. 1989] I might have to cut Power Pack out of my reading order soon. I was more interested at first, but the series has gotten too cutesy for me. Let’s see if this issue changes my mind! [#cmro M7504]

[Classic X-Men #31, Mar. 1989] Don’t let the cover fool you: We’re actually looking at a flashback B-story inside this X-Men reprint issue. [#cmro M7500]

[Wolverine #10, Aug. 1989] I’m kind of 50/50 on these Wolverine solo stories lately, but maybe Bill Sienkiewicz inking over John Buscema’s pencils will improve things! [#cmro M7497]

[Power Pack #46, May 1989] I was planning to read all the way through Power Pack, but I admit my patience is wearing thin. Maybe the artwork by Whilce Portacio will help! [#cmro M7496]

[Death’s Head #4, Mar. 1989] Are they going to do that same, “XYZ, yes?” speech pattern on the cover of every issue?? It’s wearing thin faster than “Avengers Assemble!” [#cmro M7494]

[Death’s Head #3, Feb. 1989] We’ll see how long I last on this Death’s Head comic, but honestly I need to hurry up or I’m never going to reach the ’90s! [#cmro M7493]

This week’s logo wraps up the Panther’s Quest storyline and honors Zanti Chikane, the South African who helped T’Challa battle mercenaries and eventually find his mother, Ramonda. As they part ways, T’Challa offers Zanti an open invitation to visit Wakanda. #marvel #cmro #mda

[Marvel Comics Presents #37, Dec. 1989] We’re finally here! It’s the final issue of the 25-part Panther’s Quest storyline, where T’Challa finally finds his mother! But will it be a happy reunion…?? [#cmro M7483]

[Marvel Comics Presents #36, Dec. 1989] Bill Sienkiewicz always delivers, and this cover is no exception! T’Challa does look a little more like Venom than the Black Panther, but I’ll allow it. [#cmro M7482]
