What if...Namor and his people moved to Wakanda?

[Frostbite883]

What if after Namor had the Atlantians to evacuate their city-state, Atlantis, he formed an alliance with
the Wakandan king, T'Challa aka Black Panther and the Atlantian people have now resided in Wakanda?

How would this effect Wakanda and the Wakandans?

Would this scenario work out best for the Wakandans and Atlantians or for the worse?

When do you think the Wakandans and Atlantians might get very, very hostile with each other?

Where would Namor and his people fit in this society of air-breathers?

And most importantly, what would happen if Namor and his people were to stay in Wakanda for
a very long period of time until Atlantis has been rebuilt?

Well, that's it with the questions.

So then, any comments?

Sounds like very fertile ground for future stories to me.

It could never work. Namor is one of the most arrogant and intemperate rulers there is and eventually there would be a clash between him and the Panther that would probably escalate into an all out war.

I could see some perceived slight on the part of T'Challa towards Namor that would incite him to declare war on Wakanda.

[BmoreAkuma]

hmm i beg to differ they may not have that much trust in one another but i think for temporary means it would work out. But the question of the day is how will Namor and Doom work things out?

[Mastrmynd]

that is a GREAT WHAT IF story?
one issue or a 3 issue WHAT IF story arc? Hmmm?

[Catch22]

I can see the Panther using that to his advantage. Namor would be a "Naval" threat that BP could exploit to help protect Wakanda and Namor and his outcasts would enjoy the protection and technology that Wakanda offers.  In that event, you KNOW there would be a big throwdown between Wakanda and SHIELD.

[Mastrmynd]

they'd have to fight.
tony stark would have a serious decision to make...

[Frostbite883]

It'll also be funny if T'Challa's queen, Storm, was the one to stop their infighting with
each other (if it ever comes to that) and she would tell them off on their immature
behavior in a situation like this.

Hello, Marvel.  We have a story idea for you.  We need you to get Hudlin & McDuffie to write it and Sal & Bob and Eaton, Portela and our fave HEFFA artist to do the art chores.

I could see the wakandans getting so fed up with the outsiders that they would change the water the Atlanteans so desperatly need to alchohol.

I could see the wakandans getting so fed up with the outsiders that they would change the water the Atlanteans so desperatly need to alchohol.

And the Atlanteans would do some payback of their with the Wakandans anyway they can.

Whether by insulting them outright, intimidating them, disrupting the Wakandans traditional ceremonies, etc.

BP+Namor=Civil War.Skrulls would take on the winner (BP) and STILL lose.But Wakanda would be in shambles,and invite another attempt by a usurper.Who will lose.Tiny Wakanda can stalemate the entire unified forces of the rest of the planet combined...she's not worried about a few stupid nations or a continent or two actin froggy.Wakanda would be like:"For we are protected...by the Panther God and the Red,the Black,and the Green; with THE KEY! Siiisssssssssyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! AMANDLA!" and lay that black boot stomp on 'em.

It wouldn't be the first time Namor and T'Challa butt heads. I have the issue of The Defenders where Namor and T'Challa came close to war.

[supreme illuminati]

Really? I didn't know about that. I DO recall BP and SM going to war (with the Deviant Lemurians being central to this conflict) in CJP'S BP. Incredibly well written arc.

[michaelintp]

Whaddya talkin' about?  The Atlanteans would become debilitated dehydrated wimps, and the Wakandans would kick their butts in two minutes flat.  Or maybe not, out of pure mercy.
