Luther Robinson
Luther Robinson is an American man from Maine and a naval adventurer of sorts. In 1940, following the battle between the Human Torch and Namor the Sub-Mariner, Robinson decided to destroy Namor in defense of America. He commandeered a 40-man crew to man his well-armed yacht, the Colleen, and traveled to the Antarctic along with his girlfriend Lynne Harris. There, they were attacked by soldiers of Atlantis in flying submarines. Namor climbed aboard the ship and kidnapped Lynne and took her into a submarine underwater. Robinson took a standard human submarine from the yacht and attacked Namor's craft, blasting it open and allowing him to rescue Lynne. Namor also escaped the wreckage.[1] Robinson's forces landed on a nearby iceberg that was apparently serving as the Atlanteans' base of operations, prompting a land battle. All of the invaders were killed save Robinson and another man, Mickey, and they were taken to the Atlantean emperor inside the iceberg. Namor was called to the emperor's chamber as well, but he attacked Robinson immediately and was escorted out again. Luther and Mickey were placed in captivity, where Namor later informed them that he had destroyed the ship and also taken Lynne prisoner. Namor in fact by this point had come to pity the Americans, and left them with an opening for escape, ensuring that Lynne's room was unguarded and unlocked. Luther and his companion escaped by cutting through the ice floor, fled with Lynne, and escaped by the seaplane.[2]
