Episode 114: Namor McKenzie (feat. Spencer Ackerman)
Episode 15
Tuesday, 17 September, 2024
In Episode 114 of CEREBRO, Connor and returning fan favorite guest Spencer Ackerman live the life aquatic with Namor McKenzie, the studly Sub-Mariner! Created by Bill Everett in 1939, Namor is among Marvel's earliest characters, one of only a handful to be carried over from predecessor imprint Timely Comics. Arguably the first antihero in the superhero genre, the Sub-Mariner was reimagined in the Silver Age as a sometime foe of the Fantastic Four, a romantic complication for leading lady Sue Storm. In the 21st century, after many years of stories technically designating him as a mutant, Namor finally spent a stretch of time in the X-Men franchise in work by Matt Fraction and Kieron Gillen.The result here is a strange, undersea adventure for which Connor is not entirely prepared.First, though, a little chat about Spencer's new gig as the incoming writer of Iron Man!The CEREBRO character file on the Sub-Mariner begins at 1:15:06.(Content Advisory: Namor's story includes racism, colonialism, genocide, and sexual violence.)You can support CEREBRO on Patreon!Our Sponsors:* Unknown 9: Awakening from Bandai Namco releases on October 18, 2024 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and S, and PC.
