Synopsis for "From the Stars -- the Stalker!"

The traitorous priest Kormok decries that Namor must perform the the Ritual of Renewal and dip Neptune's Trident in the flames that spawned it. Of course, it's a trap. Kormok has made a deal with an alien race that seeks to steal Earth's water and needs Namor for an as yet unknown reason. The Stalker attacks Namor and Namor proves to be too much for the Stalker. Unfortunately, the Stalker activates a funnel beam that sucks Namor out into space.

Solicit Synopsis

Namor begins a quest which will take him to the land of his birth — only to encounter a menace from the very stars! And, wait'll you learn the far-out scheme of — the Stalker!
