Amazon.com: This vintage 1966 cartoon features Marvel Comics' king of the deep, the Sub-Mariner. In the first story, Atlantis Under Attack, the sacred trident of Neptune is stolen and all signs point to Namor's trusted grand vizier, Lord Vashti. In disbelief, Namor follows Vashti's trail to the carnivorous sea forest while the real thief, his archenemy Attuma, lies ready to attack the city. The second story, To Conquer a Crown, opens with a military demonstration by Atlantis's munitions expert, Namor's cousin Biera. When the citizens protest the apparent warmongering, Namor calls on Biera to explain that the arms are for defense only. To the prince's surprise, the treacherous Biera turns on him and challenges him to a duel of strength for the throne. Namor accepts, not knowing that Biera holds the ultimate weapon. Each story is divided into three six-minute serial-type segments. The animation is minimal, restricted mostly to camera zooms and moving limbs and mouths, punctuated by Batman-style sound effects ("Wham!"). Other heroes in this series include Iron Man, Spider-Man, Captain America, the Hulk, and Thor. --David Horiuchi
Sub Mariner The King of the Seas This is some old classic Marvel cartoons with the primative animation. I only wish they would release a complete set with all the episodes. I am sure they are in an archive somewhere. Why is it that Marvel fans are not asking for more of these classic masterpieces of animation. I loved some of the old comics converted into limited animation in this one. The voices are just right. Subby himself was voiced by a prominent actor who I don't remember here. All in all it's a treat for those who forgot these things existed so long ago.
Another Classic from Marvel. Classic artwork and subtle animation help to make this another must have in the Marvel comic lover's collection. Features two episodes from the 1960s series of the title character. Somewhat cheesy, but a lot of fun. The big fans of Marvel comics will appreciate the most. Its the only Sub Mariner cartoon available so enjoy.
Better than I thought I watched sub-mariner when I was 8 years old. The animation was better then what I remembered. If your a cartoon buff you will enjoy the video. It's a little corny but still interesting. The villians were good to.
Subby doesn't float I've seen two of the "classic" Marvel cartoons: Hulk and Subby. Hulk's better (and I'm not saying that just because I'm biased). These cartoons are boring. The only funny thing about them is that, unlike the comic book, the animators tried to make the atmosphere more watery: air bubbles constantly being emitted every time a character speaks and dorky 3rd grade schooler fish which cut across the screen at the most dramatic moments. This is not good storytelling, not good presenting, not good animation. But if you like water, I mean really like water, you might like this.
