SUB-MARINER VERSUS THE HUMAN RACE! (1963)

Despite starting out as an enemy of the human race, particularly the United States, in his earliest Golden Age appearances, Namor the Sub-Mariner would join the fight against the Nazis alongside Captain America and the original Human Torch during World War II. When he returned to comics in the pages of Fantastic Four, the Sub-Mariner started out as one of their recurring enemies. 

Namor fought the Fantastic Four in his first modern appearance, then teamed up with Doctor Doom, preyed on the FF's bankruptcy and tackled the modern Human Torch alone. But he's about to step up his threat level by declaring all of humanity as his enemy as his search for lost Atlantis finally comes to a head.

This story acts as the official first modern appearance of Atlantis, Lady Dorma and the Atlanteans and introduces Lord Krang and Thakor...

Before the United Nations, Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards) proclaims Atlantis to be a credible threat, igniting a war with them. Reed ends the war by dehydrating the Atlantean soldiers. Namor kidnaps the Invisible Girl (again!) and, when she nearly drowns, he chooses her over Dorma.

MARVEL MONSTERS (2005)

One of Marvel's fifth-week events from 2005 centred around the classic Marvel Monsters that would invade the pages of Strange Tales , Journey into Mystery , Amazing Adventures , Tales to Astonish and Tales of Suspense every month, before the age of heroes. While it was an okay event at best, the four one-shots finally established that those behemoths from outer space and other dimensions did actually inhabit the Marvel Universe ! The highlight is the Hulk 's clash with Devil Dinosaur (a character who was first introduced in the 1970s), but we also found out what some of these creatures had been up to since their early '60 debuts, an untold tale of the time some of the Marvel U's more monstrous heroes gathered to fight them and, finally, the introduction of the  Fin Fang Four ! The featured stories aren't connected and most issues also featured reprints of classic Marvel Monster tales. Marvel Monsters: Devil Dinosaur #1 [1/2] Marvel Monsters: Monsters on the Prow...

DEAD DAYS (2007)

The Marvel Zombies were a surprise hit when they made their debut, initially invading the Ultimate Universe , then getting their teeth into a mini-series of their own as written by Robert Kirkman of ' The Walking Dead ' fame. Earth-2149 was an Earth infected by a zombie virus that turned its inhabitants (seemingly concentrating on the super-human population) into undead flesh-eaters who retained their intelligence but lost all of their morality. We already knew the virus was brought to Earth-2149 by the Sentry of Earth-91126 , but how did it all play out in the beginning? And what part did Ashley "Ash" Williams of Earth-818793 have to do with it? How did the ' Chosen One ' assigned by God  himself to fight the Necronomicon 's Deadite ' Army of Darkness ' play a part in the end of humanity in the world of the Marvel Zombies..? MCG Note: Don't have access to the ' Army of Darkness ' comics but want to find out how it all began? Don...
