Namor’s character has a rich
comic history that has seen him play the role of hero and villain, with
superteams playing a prominent part in his adventures. So will Namor return and
become an Avenger in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever?

He does have some experience as a member of the Avengers in
Marvel Comics. It won’t be surprising if Namor’s role in the MCU adheres to the
comics where it takes him a while to become an Avenger.

The Atlantean king is a
founding member of the Defenders and Invaders in the comics. The original
Defenders team saw him team up with Doctor Strange, Hulk, and Silver Surfer.

Namor is one of the original members of the clandestine team
which features some of Marvel’s biggest superheroes of all time like Iron Man,
Reed Richards, Black Bolt, Professor X, and Doctor Strange.

Some rumors are
surfacing that Marvel Studios is developing a project for the superteam, so his
introduction in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever could also tease his involvement
with the team. Working with MCU’s biggest superheroes could then one day result
in how he finds his way fighting alongside the Avengers.
