History

The past history of Namor of Earth-772 mirrors that of his Earth-616 counterpart up until the point when Spider-Man joined the Fantastic Four. In this reality, the addition of Spider-Man onto the team lead to Mr. Fantastic regularly placing Sue Storm on the sidelines. Especially when they raced to the Moon to beat the Russians.

The Puppet Master decided to seize this opportunity by taking control of the Sub-Mariner with one of his puppets and having him contact Sue Storm and asking her to come to him. Answering his call out of loneliness, Sue was captured and taken prisoner by the enslaved Sub-Mariner. When the rest of the Fantastic Five returned to Earth they found Sue missing and were told by Namor that she was his prisoner. The FF traveled to Atlantis and battled the Sub-Mariner to save her. During the fight, the octopus that was guarding Sue was freed and crushed the submarine used by the Puppet Master, seemingly killing the foe and freeing Namor from his control. With the battle over, Sue decided to stay with Namor to pursue a relationship with him, much to the shock of the other members of the FF. Namor put her through a process that made her a water-breather while keeping her beautiful body, a process which was seemingly permanent.[1]

Namor and Sue were soon married and Sue became both Namor's queen and pregnant with their child, a boy. With this momentous occasion, the Sub-Mariner went to the Baxter Building to invite the rest of the Fantastic Four to witness the birth of the next Atlantean prince. Namor did not expect that both Reed and Johnny, embittered over Sue's relationship with Namor, would attack him. Namor left vowing that he would not engage in acts of war against the surface out of respect for Sue.

However, Reed and Johnny targeted Atlantis, seeking to eliminate the entire race and force Sue to return to the surface. To this end Reed developed a bomb that would eliminate the oxygen from the waters around Atlantis and suffocate all the people of Atlantis. Reed and Johnny clashed with Namor and the Atlantean army until Reed learned that Sue was pregnant and disarmed his bomb and helped with the delivery. Sue gave birth to a son that she and Namor named Leonard after his father. Reed departed Atlantis, making peace with Namor, however Johnny escaped, vowing revenge.[2]

Sometime later Sue regained her ability to breath on land and left Namor to reunite with the Fantastic Five, marrying Reed and becoming pregnant with his child.[3] The circumstances behind this and the ultimate fate of Namor remains unrevealed.
