American seaman Leonard McKenzie embarked on an expedition to Antarctica in 1920, searching for the Lemurian city rumored to house the mythical Helmet of Power. McKenzie set explosive charges to break up ice floes in the ship's path, unaware that Atlantis lay beneath the waters. The city sustained heavy damage, and Atlantean Emperor Thakorr commanded his daughter Fen to investigate the cause of the explosions. The blue-skinned princess wound up staying aboard the ship for several weeks, and Fen and McKenzie quickly fell in love and were married. Thakorr sent an Atlantean war party to search for her, and thinking Fen a captive, the Atlanteans slaughtered McKenzie's crew and apparently McKenzie himself. Afterwards, Fen returned with the War party to Atlantis, and nine months later, Namor was born... the first known Homo sapien - Homo mermanus hybrid.

The young prince grew up with a short, nasty temper and a hostile attitude toward surface-dwellers, whom he blamed for the near-destruction of Atlantis. When Thakorr discovered men in diving suits near Atlantis, he assumed they were advance scouts for an invasion force, causing the fiery Sub-Mariner to launch frequent pre-emptive attacks against humanity, causing untold destruction throughout New York City and leading him into confrontation with the original Human Torch. But when Nazi troops attacked Atlantis, Namor joined the Allied cause alongside Captain America and his fellow Invaders.
