Description
Synopsis for “Somewhere Stands Skull Island!”
Continued from last issue…
Furious that the Plunderer could pose a threat to his kingdom of Atlantis, Namor decide to declare war on the entire surface world. He is however talked out of it by Dorma and Lord Vashti who convince him that go after the Plunderer only as he is a threat to everyone, an idea that Namor decides to accept.
Knowing that the Plunderer is located in the Savage Land, Namor decides to first go to the Antarctic region that was the site of the original Atlantis. There, he fights off a number of polar serpents before entering the city. There in the ruins, Namor finds the grave of his beloved mother, the late Princess Fen. This causes Namor to recollect that some surface dweller attacked and destroy the first Atlantis, however the amnesia that he had suffered until recent time[2] prevents him from remembering who attacked Atlantis all those years ago.
Having seen enough, Namor goes forward toward Skull Island to confront the Plunderer. The Plunderer meanwhile has constructed a giant vibra-cannon and prepares to strike at Namor, when the Sub-Mariner is attacked by a prehistoric creature. Namor easily bests the creature in battle, unaware that lady Dorma has followed after him and seeks to aid her prince. When the Sub-Mariner is blasted by the vibra-cannon, Dorma is struck as well, although Namor doesn’t know it.
Surviving the blast, Namor goes to the island and fights one-on-one against the Plunderer. When Namor gains the upper-hand, the Plunderer tells him of Dorma’s injury, prompting the Sub-Mariner to break off the fight and order Dorma to return to Atlantis after he sees that she is all right. When Namor returns to resume the battle, he is easily struck down by the Plunderer’s personal vibra-cannon.
When Dorma returns to Atlantis, Vashti brings her to a view screen where she sees, much to her horror, that Namor has been captured and has been immobilized in strange energy rings. With Namor his prisoner, the Plunderer vows that nobody will oppose his plans of conquest of the entire world.
