But what does the Talokanil hand symbol represents?
The answer lies in Namor’s (Tenoch Huerta) origin and Mesoamerican mythology.
The process activated a mutation in Namors genes, giving him special abilities once he was born.
For starters, Namor is stronger and faster than other Talokanils.
Finally, Namor was born with wings on his heels, allowing him to fly.
So, for almost five centuries, Namor has been ruling Talokan and helping forge his peoples culture.
