The war between Black Panther & Namor began when the Avengers & the X-Men went to war. At the time, Namor was a member of the X-Men. Namor received a huge power-up, and already being one of the most powerful, and brutal, beings on Earth, he only became more belligerent. During the war, Black Panther tried to stay out of it as his wife at the time, Storm, is an X-Man. However, the Panther did provide the Avengers asylum in his native land of Wakanda. Namor, always looking for a fight, having his power increased to god-like levels, and trying to creep with Cyclops' lover, Emma Frost, on the side, sought to kill multiple birds with one stone. Once Cyclops discovered the behind the scenes shenanigans between Namor & Emma, he kicked her to the curb, and kicked Namor out the X-Men. ![]() Namor, the prince of undersea Atlantis (he is Marvel's first hero, and pre-dates Aquaman), gathered his Atlantean army, and invaded Wakanda. Cyclops had specifically stated not to. ![]() This was mass murder on an obscene scale. ![]() Namor took on a full team of Avengers. ![]() ![]() Eventually, the Avengers won, and returned Namor to his normal power levels. ![]() This war also resulted in the annulment of the marriage between BP & Storm. ![]() Edited by Doctor Magnus Warlock, Aug 9 2014, 06:49 PM.

Eventually, the Avengers defeated the X-Men. In the Avengers' books, a crisis called incursions have taken place. In a nutshell, an incursion is when a parallel Earth collides with another one. The Earth of Marvel, known as Earth-616, seems to be a focal point for other Earths. For now, the only recourse is for one Earth to destroy the other, or both will be destroyed. This crisis ended up causing BP & Namor to work alongside other Avengers. BP has been working with Namor in secret, but their animosity runs deep. ![]() Also, Bast, the Egyptian Goddess, had recently provided T'Challa with a huge power-up. She transformed the former King of Wakanda into the King of the Dead. ![]()

The Black Panther has kept the full nature of his power secret. He has made it difficult to tell how much of his power comes from within, or technologically based. |

T'Challa is no longer the Ruler of Wakanda, his sister Shuri, is. Namor thought he could decimate a proud nation, and think no repercussions would ensue. He was wrong. |

Then, Thanos invaded Earth when the bulk of the Avengers were off in space. This resulted in the formation of the Mighty Avengers, a team mostly comprised of people of color. |

After the Mighty Avengers drove off the forces of Thanos, he chief officer, paid a visit to the recently demolished Atlantis. I never thought Namor would sink so low. During the Avengers/X-Men war, Namor had defeated Luke Cage in single combat. Namor has battled, and beaten, the Hulk before. Yet as well all saw, Luke fought a warrior far more powerful than him. Namor....just punked out. |

So, from New York, to Atlantis, and now Wakanda......comes the forces of Thanos. |
