"Announced in Newsarama’s newest Joe Fridays feature, Namor the Sub-Mariner will be getting a new series spiraling out of Civil War and Civil War: Front Line. It will feature Michael Turner on cover duty. No word yet on who the creative team will be but Peter Milligan (X-Statix, Shade the Changing Man) has been rumored in the past to be working on a series for Namor."

: NRAMA: Joe, last week, you said that there'd
: be more to talk about this week, in regards
: to Namor, specifically considering that
: image by Mike Turner.
:
: Before we hit that - Namor is one character
: that's gone through a bit of a
: revitalization thanks to Civil War, perhaps
: making his hostile attitude toward the
: surface world understandable for most
: readers for the first times in a long time.
: In terms of the Civil War "Big
: Board" – was "revitalize
: Namor" even on it?
:
: JQ: No, Namor had a question mark over his
: name. He was just one of many characters
: that we could elevate during Civil War, but
: we didn’t have a completely concrete plan
: for him yet. He was someone who we could
: possibly bring into the limelight, but it
: wasn’t a certainty. Namor had begun popping
: up more in more in the Marvel Universe, so
: the idea of doing something with him had
: been percolating slowly.
:
: From the Illuminati to Civil War to Front
: Line to Black Panther, it just seemed like
: Namor was starting to reared his pointy
: eared head. The Atlantean sleeper cell was
: really one of the things that got us
: thinking more and more about Namor and his
: role within the Marvel Universe. Then one
: day we received a pitch and suddenly, it
: seemed like the time was right.
:
: NRAMA: Given his role in Front Line, and
: this week's Civil War #6 - where is he, as a
: character in your view? As a character,
: what's it time for him to do?
:
: JQ: Yeah, we’ve all been feeling this way
: about the Sub-Mariner for some time now.
: He’s a great character and he’s been out of
: the limelight for some time, so let’s see
: how much fans have missed him [laughs]
:
: NRAMA: So - that image - you wanna talk
: about it some more? Got a creative team? A
: set-up? A reason why the surface world is on
: fire?
:
: JQ: Nope, can’t tell you more than I have at
: this point, but news is forthcoming.
:
: -----------
: I hoped for more informations but it sounds
: very promising.
