It's so funny to see how hard they avoid just saying it's meant to be the president (IE, Nixon)
When hiding it like this only makes it WAY more obvious that it's meant to be Nixon.

I'm as sceptical of Tom Brevoort's X-Men reboot as everyone else, but can't we wait until the issues or out or we at least know who the creators are before denouncing it as a total dumpsters fire?
I get the concern. Brevoort's record at Marvel is inconsistent at best. He oversaw Hickman's FF and Avengers, Ryan North's FF, Ewing's Ultimates, Gillen and Ribić's Eternals, and events like Secret Wars and Judgement Day. He also oversaw Slott on FF, Aaron on Avengers, and events like Civil War II and Secret Empire.
But as patchy as that record is, I'm just counting my lucky stars that it wasn't Nick Lowe taking over.

Submariner Summer 16
Ok all, lets go! It's part 16 of #SubmarinerSummer with Tales to Astonish #83: The Sub-Mariner STRIKES! Hulk has cover-duty, but the Title page has Namor coming right for us as he launches himself at Krang's ship. We have Kirby himself on art this ish, so lets enjoy that treat
Right away we're hit with a text wall as they catch us up to the story and narrate the action Silve Age-style, but the action isn't long arriving as Krang's first shot misses, but our Prince of Atlantis does NOT
Namor manages to be magnanimous and offers Krang the chance to surrender, but Krang isn't interested and tries running towards the city in the most hilarious piece of bad judgement ever: "Maybe Namor won't endanger New Yorkers?" AJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Dorma is trying to talk Krang down, but Krang knows Namor won't stop and he has no intention to either. He blasts him with the next weapon on deck and gets Namor dead on, hoping to hit his "weak spot" (spoilers: this weak spot is definately headed for retcon land). In any case it doesn't work
Namor crashes onto Krang's ship, but at this point we get an interesting plot twist/crossover, sort of. Over in the Hulk stories, the Secret Empire has been clashing with the Green Goliath. Now, that group's Number One sees Namor, and wants to use him against Hulk!
Meanwhile on Krang's ship, Namor manages to get to a window and Dorma finally realizes his rage when she sees his face, and he hers. Just as he crashes through, though, Krang manages to use another of his many weapons to knock him back into the water
The Secret Empire's Number One approaches, planning to wipe Namor's memory to make him a pawn. Meanwhile Krang launches his last resort: the "fleet destroyer", a fission bomb. That's right, he tries to nuke Namor! Namor however manages to destroy it before it can fully activate
Krang takes the opportunity to flee, again. Classic villain move. And as it turns out, Number One doesn't *need* his lobotomizer ray: the blast of even the weakened fleet destroyer nuke rendered Namor amnesiac on its own! Uh-oh... Cliffhanger!
Another great action issue with raucous Kirby art, and another clever crossover plot thread woven into the narrative; Marvel tight continuity expertly used. Gotta wonder if they're intentionally making amnesia a Namor thing.
We'll have to see what Number One has in store for our Prince of Atlantis in the NEXT issue, though, in Tales to Astonish #84: Like A Beast At Bay!
