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...

MYS-TECH WARS (1993)

Everyone knows corporations are evil. Every single one of them. Mys-Tech are no exception. Especially as their board made a deal with Mephisto for power and immortality in exchange for the funnelling of souls straight into his dimension way back in 987AD. The deal's done alright for them over the years, but now they want out... In recent weeks, the London-based chemical company has made a number of super-powered enemies whose origins tie directly into their own magickal activities. Now all of those new foes - from the UK-based Dark Ange l, Motormouth , Killpower and the Knights of Pendragon to the time-travelling Death's Head - are about to come after them all at once. And they're bringing the Avengers , X-Men and more! Mys-Tech are growing a perfect replica of the real planet Earth called the UnEarth. Once it's fully-grown, they'll tinker with it to suit their needs and replace the original with a world they control. Marvel UK's line of titles didn't ...

DEADLY KNIGHTS (1994)

The first Marvel / DC crossover since Uncanny X-Men and the New Teen Titans #1 , twelve years earlier. This time around we meet the Punisher ( Frank Castle ) of Earth-7642 as his war on crime brings him to Gotham City . His hunt for Jigsaw will attract the attention of Batman ( John-Paul Valley , formerly known as Azrael ). He returns to Gotham sometime later and clashed with the original Batman ( Bruce Wayne ) and the infamous Joker . This return to Earth-7642 (Marvel's crossover universe - where continuity is essentially the same, but the crossover stories don't effect the mainstream universe) heralded a slew of Marvel/DC crossovers set outside of regular continuity (for Marvel, at least) until both mainstream universe literally clashed in MARVEL VERSUS DC a year later. There are some truly odd story-telling choices in this one. I had to double-check it was written by Denny O'Neil . The Punisher of Earth-7642 is much the same as his Earth-616 counterpart, but emba...
