Early life[]

Leonard McKenzie was the captain of an ice breaker ship. Leonard gave orders to his men to use explosives to break up an iceberg. However, unknown to Leonard, the explosion caused earthquakes in Atlantis. King Thakorr of Atlantis sent his daughter, Fen, to investigate. However, when Fen got out of the water and onto the ship she was unable to breath. Leonard gave Fen medical attention and over time they fell in love. Leonard and Fen eventually got married.

Several weeks later, King Thakorr grew worried for Fen and believed that she had been captured by the humans. Thakorr then sent his soldiers onto the ice breaker ship to rescue her. A fight broke out between the Atlantean soldiers and the human sailors and McKenzie was shot and killed. Fen returned to Atlantis where she gave birth to her and Leonard's son whom she named Namor. However, shortly after giving birth, Fen died of a broken heart.

When the police learned that Namor was in the city them began to hunt him down because of his past attacks on the surface. Namor was later captured by the police and placed in jail. However, two men bailed Namor out and brought him to their employer, Ms. B. Ms. B told Namor the story of his parents tragic love and revealed that she was his grandmother from his father's side of the family. Ms. B asked Namor to stay with her. However, Namor, with his memory restored, replied that he had to return to Atlantis to watch over his people and because he loved an Atlantean woman named Lady Dorma. Ms. B then helped Namor avoid the police so he could return to the ocean.
