NAMOR: THE FIRST MUTANT #1
Written by STUART MOORE
Penciled by ARIEL OLIVETTI
Cover by JAE LEE
Variant Cover by JOE QUESADA
Spinning out of the pages of X-MEN #1, comes an all-new series starring the world’s first mutant, NAMOR THE SUB-MARINER. When the X-Men are confronted with a deadly vampire threat, Namor takes matters into his own hands on a mission that might bring down the entire might of the vampires on their heads...and in the process, destroy Atlantis! What lurks down below the ocean where the sun can’t reach? What he thought was a fable to scare the children of Atlantis comes to terrifying life in the form of a newly-discovered race of Atlantean Vampires. Namor’s choice, to stand with Atlantis or the X-Men, will define a new chapter in his life...or death.
40 PGS./Rated T+ ...$3.99

Sadly, I'm not an Olivetti fan, but I'm willing to look past that for a monthly dose of Namor in my life.

I don't think he was the first mutant.

Marvel has said so for a very long time now.

Yeah, but the character Apocalypse predates Namor by about a billion years. I think what Marvel means is that Namor is their first mutant superhero.

Oh, you're right! I think that was even a tagline they used for him for a while, wasn't it?

I think that was in the Byrne series.

Well in Marvel, Vampirism came from Atlantis so it works.

This will be cool if they dress Namor in an orange fishscale jersey, green pants and green gloves.

And this is after the mutant vampires in X-men!

Hordes of vampires and hordes of zombies have the same effect on me.

Namor is Marvel's first mutant.,,, in order of introduction, Marvel Comics #1 (and Fantastic Four #4 for that matter) predates X-Factor #6 by quite a while.

I find it strange that there is a new X-MEN #1 coming out, and it has them fighting vampires. That doesn't seem like an appropriate story for a comic called X-MEN #1. Unless it is Vampire Magneto.
