'italian' is the definition.
(someone from Rome)

'back from vietnam originally' is the wordplay.
'back' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'namor' is hidden in the letters of 'vietnam originally'.
'namor' in reverse letter order is 'ROMAN'.

'city dweller coming' is the link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for roman that I've seen before include "eg Brutus" , "Classical" , "- Catholic; - candle" , "Of an Italian city" , "A novel" .)
