Sub-Mariner Comics (001 - 042) (1941 - 1945 & 1954 - 1955)

Sub-Mariner Comics Volume 1

The first ongoing series starring Namor the Sub-Mariner. The series was on a brief hiatus with issue 32 in 1949, in the time-period that superhero comics had lost it's popularity, but resumed in 1954 with issue 33 as plain ' Sub-Mariner'.

Continued Sub-Mariner Volume 1

Sub-Mariner is the continuation of Sub-Mariner Comics, witch had been on hiatus since 1949. This volume picked up the numbering with issue 33 in 1954.
Although It's revival was short-lived, the series lasted longer then the also revived Captain America Comics series and Young Men series. This was most likely because publisher Martin Goodman had developed plans with a TV network-company to have Sub-mariner appear in his own live-action tv show. Plans for the show however never materialized and thus the series was cancelled as well.

This volume is complete - using scanned issues even with the inclusion of some digital issues in a seperate folder. I think for a series this old the inclusion of the scanned issues with all the wear and tear of time is important
