Why did people hate this Namor look?

Because it's the male version of all the women's outfits which makes it gay so male readers hate it

But it looks very Conan-esque, and males like Conan. It also looks very much like something out of Mortal Kombat, which males also like. Plus he usually wears a speedo…

Not really
Something's off about it compared to those

I liked it. He finally put on some pants.

Sexo

I liked it a lot. It's my favourite of his. It makes him look like an underwater Conan. It just needs the longer hair. I liked the black sclera too.

Yeah that's a good Namor look. My favorite one is the 90s one though, pretty much underwater Conan as you say.

Because nerds hate change.

Eh, I found that too lazy. It's just long-haired Namor. And the armour was too busy. This design IMHO is the perfect blend between ornate and fitting an underwater character while also showing off Namor's abs, which is synonymous with him.
Technically, but what I'm talking about is different. Around the King In Black.Aaron Avengers era they started giving him black sclera and blue eyes.

Because its just another example of radically changing a classic design for MCU 'synergy'
Made even worst that the MCU thing they're synergizing with was fucking garbage.

fair enough, he's more expressive that way and less outright creepy

That's the way it should always be, and how real men fight.

Nigger, what are you talking about? The redesign came out years before they made him a fat beaner in the MCU.
Yeah, in the Depths he's meant to be more monstrous, current Namor is still supposed to be handsome. I like him looking like an Elf desu. It's a crime what they did to him in the MCU.
I'm coming to prefer longer hair myself, but before the new one hit that was my favourite as well.

I think pic rel is a decent modernized version of a more classic design. The crown especially is something he should wear more often as a king.

I really really like it, one of the rare good things from Aaron's run because that redesign is LEAGUES BETTER than the suit he had for a split second in X-Men Red

I feel that the crown is too bulky, but yeah, it's a pretty good design. His base Rivals look is a pretty good adaptation of the OP costume in general terms. It just sucks they made him some weird amalgamation. He's got an Aztec skintone on a Caucasian/base Namor body/face, he's supposedly Atlantean and McKenzie's his dad, but he talks like a Latino. Make that make sense.
I've blocked XMRed entirely from my mind desu. But yeah, awful as Aaron's Avengers were, the Namor costume and his Doom were genuinely great.

As a sidenote, I also liked the Ultimate look. He had an Ancient Egyptian Priest/King vibe and I really dug it.

I've literally never heard anyone hating on this look.
Sounds like you're talking out of your ass.
Looks like shit.

There's a lot of Namor purists who prefer the shorts

People hated this look?
I don't think Namor's had a bad look save for his default Rivals one.

ATTACK THEM

What's the context for Namor telling Cap he's got a boner?

Namor is the kind of guy who'd tell someone he's got a hard on unprompted. He's very proud.

I didn't.
He wore a speedo, anon.

Brown for MC synergy

He looks more Asian than brown to me.

Seems legit. Just Namor being Namor then.

He looks more Asian than brown to me.

That's just how Anka draws eyes

From a distance. Up close they seem to have some variation between characters.

He looks more Asian

Before I even really knew who Namor was. I always thought he was Asian. From Jack Kirby's design to so many others. I always thought thats what they were trying to convey with his facial features. Giving him "slanted" eyes.

I don't mind it, but why don't make it more "scale" like?

I think it's supposed to be coral

The men and women dressed as strippers, its true equality.

Most men wear Speedos or similar to swim, that's not odd. But they don't wear leather straps that you'd find only during pride parade.
It's a bit of a revenge for the girls being featured with little clothes, also being influenced by faggots' tastes and preferences. Picrel.

Professional athletes maybe. But I remember colleagues around me always judging each other by what they wore. Most guys preferring boxers or trunks to swim in. Seeing speedos as either silly or "gay".

That's because Gambit is a fucking faggot for faggots, always has been.

My only problem with the rivals looks if the clown hair and face. The actually costume looks good.

Gambit isn't gay though?

Found the Frenchie. Go sell some garlic.

Gambit is as straight as Iceman is.

He speaks french. All french are faggots. Quo Delicta Est.

No, but they tried to make him bi and Marvel refused. Since then, fags have been claiming him as their own bisexual icon.

Better than that Mexican Namor the MCU tried to push

Stop with the Gambit bashing. He's not gay, he's from Louisiana.

I'm not french, God forbids. And I said similar. If someone wore a Speedo to the pool I wouldn't mind. If someone shows up like Namor, I'd think he's a pervert.

No, but they tried to make him bi and Marvel refused

Same goes for a lot of characters. But even when they're made bi more often than not it's a one time deal never to be acknowledged again. Look at Star-Lord or Kitty Pryde.

Spoken like someone who doesn’t read comics

i need them
