well, that's what we know for now.
continuing from last ish: some Atlantean terrorists just blew up Bentonville, Arkansas. which should probably be good news to corporate rivals, small business owners and the unions, because that's where the cult known as Wal-Mart is headquartered. yes, the same chain that has low prices and has been charged with unfair labor practices. take that, you money-grubbing Waltons!
anyway, Namor, ruler of the Seven Seas (at least in the Marvel world), is about to lose his kingdom as ambitious forces are moving against him. to make things worse, the damn humans led by T-Stark have evidence of an Atlantean hand in the terrorist attack and thus have blockaded Atlantis.
Namor wants to investigate himself (given that he set up the sleeper cells in the first place), and Iron Man's efforts (he's everywhere these days, its almost like brand saturation) to stop him go for naught. the military brass, as is their wont, use their dirty tricks department to get things done.

geez. i think i miss Eddie Brock.
Subby gets past the blockade and goes to Bentonville to go shopping. wait, there's no Wal-Mart anymore. so he picks up some interesting evidence and goes to find his fellow mutant for advice ... the bald man known as Prof. X. and then we get our prerequisite superhero fight for the next issue.
which shouldn't happen, after Wolverine tracked Nitro down until the latter's incarceration in Atlantis, and the subsequent gentleman's agreement they had prior to taking down Damage Control. these guys keep reverting to type.
Submariner reads more like Fox News and by the numbers-storytelling. but i must admit i am intrigued: whose corpse is that on the Atlantean throne? i know ... its Black Adam!!! he lost his powers, and he looks like Subby. damn, i'm good.
