Namor, also known as Namor the Sub-Mariner, is a Marvel Comics character with a complex history.

 Namor is the mutant son of an Atlantean princess and a human sea captain. He is the Prince of Atlantis, making him a hybrid of Atlantean and mutant physiology.

 As an Atlantean, Namor possesses superhuman strength, speed, agility, durability, and the ability to breathe underwater. Additionally, he has small, wing-like appendages on his ankles, enabling him to fly.

Namor has had romantic entanglements with several characters, most notably Sue Storm (Invisible Woman) of the Fantastic Four. Created by writer-artist Bill Everett, Namor made his first appearance in "Marvel Comics" #1 in 1939, making him one of Marvel's earliest characters.
