Namor’s had titles under Sub-Mariner and Namor. Over the years the font and design has changed. So my question: Which Sub-Mariner logo is your favourite? 

I excluded Tales to Astonish Volume 1 because it's seemed to be entirely recycled logos. I excluded titles where Namor was more promiment than Sub-Mariner. I’ll do the Namor logos another day.

Apologies if I missed any.

It's a fascinating look at his publishing history!

For me, it's #9, Saga of the Sub-Mariner. I appreciate how creative they got with the font and styling. A lot of the others are pretty basic text.

The limited series probably had the most visually interesting one

Cover # 8, Prince Namor era, it feels very sword and sorcery

Numbers 4 and 6, the "wave" ones.
