Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner is one of Marvel's best characters. Because of his personality, it is fun to see him alongside different heroes - you never know whether he is going to fight them, fight alongside them, or try to seduce them! His role as a monarch as well as his long history dating back to the Golden Age of Marvel give him lots of potential for storytelling as well.
I think a Sub-Mariner film could be cool and very different, but I must admit it would be tough to pull off. Beyond the logistics of a largely underwater shoot, having the main character in a green speedo is hard to get away with. They would have to get someone like The Rock, but it would still be hard to take seriously. I do like Namor's black outfit during the 70's, maybe they could use that for most scenes.

whoahh this is cool!
This is one of my faves. Kudoes.
Awww, yeah - Namor - or Subby to his "friends". I wish DC and Marvel would do a JSA-Invaders mash-up...That would be awesomeness.
Marvel and DC did combine the two teams in one of their Amalgam Super-Soldier issues, if I recall correctly.
Just one question: is he saying "Not to attack, Batman" or "Not to attack Batman." Because, if it's the second one, destroying the rest of the world for the Dark Knight's sake seems to be carrying friendship a little too far!
