Namor: The First Mutant Vol. 1: Curse of the Mutants by Andres Guinaldo, Stuart Moore
2.0
Sometimes the reviews are accurate, it was sadly the case for this one. I foolishly assumed this was an origins story-esque kind of volume when in fact it was very, very much not that.
Aquatic vampires; could've been interesting but the execution left a lot to be desired. This was my first Namor-centric comic run and I woefully mischose; this is a spin-off from X-Men #1 and gave minimal background to both that original plot line and any exploration into Namor. It was a dry, unoriginal monster-hunting plot that had little depth and minimal "showing" but an excess of "telling".
