Concept artist Wes Burt recently shared a new batch of early Namor concept art pieces to his Instagram page, with a message that described how he went about designing the character.

While Burtâs concept art didnât feature the final version of Namor, he did provide an anatomical breakdown of the character, including skeletal sketches of Namorâs feet, including the wings attacked to his legs.

Ross, Letitia Wright as Shuri, Winston Duke as MâBaku, and Florence Kasumba as Ayo.
