During the darkest hours of World War II, these four banded together as THE INVADERS-- to battle the Axis Powers to the death, in the name of freedom! But now the Invaders are locked in battle with one of their own comrades: King Namor of Atlantis. Driven by a psychic projection of Tommy Machan, the Sub-Mariner's deceased friend from the war, Namor has launched several offensives on the surface world. When Namor tried to rein in Machan’s violence, Machan used the Serpent Crown to escape Namor’s mind and take control of his lieutenant, Roman Peterson. Meanwhile, the Black Panther has been working to reverse the effects of Namor’s chemical weapon that turns humans into water-breathers but has only been able to replicate its effects. With Namor refusing to back down, Cap and Bucky saw no choice but to use the weapon on themselves and confront Namor on his home turf: Atlantis!
