It's going to focus on the entire Aquaman comic book saga, and have appearances of other DC Heroes & Villians. It should rival, and might beat the Wolverine & Spiderman Franchises.<br />
The original <i>Aquaman</i> series ended with issue #56 (Mar-Apr 1971). Aquaman was given his own feature again in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #435-437, and #441-452, this time as the main feature in most of these issues. The <i>Aquaman</i> series was restarted with issue #57 (Aug-Sep 1977) and ran until issue #63 (Aug-Sep 1978), when it was finally canceled. Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #460-466, when his feature moved to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #262-264, and back to <i>Adventure Comics</i> (for the final time) from issues #475-478. Aquaman appeared in a backup feature in <i>Action Comics</i> which he shared with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_(Ray_Palmer)" title="Atom (Ray Palmer)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atom</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Wave" title="Air Wave"><u><span style="color: blue;">Air Wave</span></u></a> in various issues. Throughout this time Aquaman also appeared in various series (such as <i>Justice League of America</i>, <i>The Brave and the Bold</i>, <i>World's Finest Comics</i>, and <i>DC Comics Presents</i>) in partnership with other superheroes.<br />
After becoming king of Atlantis, Aquaman began a policy of slowly reintroducing the once-secretive Atlantis to the surface world. After he was briefly ousted from the throne by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_(comics)" title="Shark (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Shark</span></u></a> (whom he defeated), he made the decision to leave the throne to become a more traditional superhero, and Dr. Vulko was elected as the new king.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="End_of_an_era" name="End_of_an_era"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">End of an era</span></h4>In the mid-1980s, after his own feature's demise, Aquaman was briefly made the leader of the Justice League of America. In a storyline told in <i>Justice League of America</i> #228-230, an invasion of Earth by a race of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian" title="Martian"><u><span style="color: blue;">Martians</span></u></a> occurred at a time when the core members were missing. Aquaman was thus forced to defend Earth with a League much-depleted in power and capability, and he took it upon himself to disband the Justice League altogether in <i>Justice League of America Annual</i> #2 (1984), thereafter reforming it with new bylaws requiring members to give full participation to the League's cases. With the help of a small number of veteran Justice League members willing to fully commit to the team, Aquaman recruited and trained four new and untried members, also relocating the team's headquarters to a reinforced bunker in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit" title="Detroit"><u><span style="color: blue;">Detroit</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan" title="Michigan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Michigan</span></u></a> after the destruction of the JLA's satellite headquarters during the invasion.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-jlah_4-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-jlah-4" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> Aquaman's participation in this new version of the Justice League ended in #243 (Oct 1985), when he resigned to work on his marriage with Mera. Subsequently, two of the four new recruits (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibe_(comics)" title="Vibe (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Vibe</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commander_Steel#Hank_Heywood_III" title="Commander Steel"><u><span style="color: blue;">Steel</span></u></a>) were killed in action.<br />

The series was well received and a follow up limited series was in the works, though it was eventually canceled due to creative problems.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-5" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> This series also expanded on several details of the Silver Age Aquaman's origin as well as Aquaman's relationship with his half-brother, Ocean Master, whose origin was retold in more complete detail. The series also added mystical elements to Aquaman's mythology and reinvented Ocean Master as a sorcerer. Aquaman reappeared in his blue costume in the <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 (1988).<br />

<h4><span class="mw-headline">Retelling origins</span></h4>In 1989, the <i>Legend of Aquaman Special</i> (officially titled as <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 in the comic's legal indicia, the second <i>Special</i> in back-to-back years) rewrote Aquaman's mythos and origin, though keeping most of his Silver Age history intact. The special was by writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Loren_Fleming" title="Robert Loren Fleming"><u><span style="color: blue;">Robert Loren Fleming</span></u></a>, with plots/breakdown art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Giffen" title="Keith Giffen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Keith Giffen</span></u></a> and full pencil art by artist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curt_Swan" title="Curt Swan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Curt Swan</span></u></a>.<br />
The Modern Age Aquaman is born as Orin to Queen Atlanna and the mysterious wizard <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlan_(DC_Comics)" title="Atlan (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atlan</span></u></a> in the Atlantean city of Poseidonis, was abandoned on Mercy Reef as a baby because of his blond hair, which was seen by the superstitious Atlanteans as a sign of a curse they called "the Mark of Kordax." The only individual who spoke up on Orin's behalf was Vulko, a scientist who had no patience for myth or superstition. While his pleas were to no avail, Vulko would later become a close friend and advisor to the young Orin.<br />
As a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_child" title="Feral child"><u><span style="color: blue;">feral child</span></u></a> who raised himself in the wilds of the ocean with only sea creatures to keep him company, Orin was found and taken in by a lighthouse keeper named Arthur Curry who named Orin "Arthur Curry" after himself. One day Orin returned home and found that his adoptive father had disappeared, so he set off on his own. In his early teens, Orin ventured to the far north, where he met and fell in love with an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inupiat" title="Inupiat"><u><span style="color: blue;">Inupiat</span></u></a> girl named Kako. He also first earned the hatred of Orm, the future Ocean Master who was later revealed to be Arthur's half-brother by Atlan and an Inupiat woman. Orin was driven away before he could learn that Kako had become pregnant with his son, Koryak.<br />
Orin then returned to the seas mostly staying out of humanity's sight, until he discovered Poseidonis. He was captured by the city's then-dictatorial government and placed in a prison camp, where he met Vulko, also a prisoner of the state, who taught Orin the language and ways of the Atlanteans. While Orin was there he realized that his mother was also being held captive, but after her death he broke out and fled. Eventually, he made his way to the surface world, where under the name of "Aquaman" he became one of several superheroes emerging into the public view at the time. Upon his return to Poseidonis he was made the king, and sometime later he met and married Mera. The Modern Age Aquaman's history is nearly identical to that of the Silver Age Aquaman from this point on.<br />

Shortly afterwards, an alien force conquered Atlantis. Arthur was forced to save the city but was hampered by an escaped Mera who personally blamed Arthur for the death of their son. In a fit of rage, Mera left Aquaman's dimension.<br />
The publication of writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_David" title="Peter David"><u><span style="color: blue;">Peter David</span></u></a>'s <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantis_(DC_Comics)#Atlantis_Chronicles" title="Atlantis (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Atlantis Chronicles</span></u></a></i> #1-7 (Mar-Sep 1990), which told the story of Atlantis from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antediluvian" title="Antediluvian"><u><span style="color: blue;">antediluvian</span></u></a> times to Aquaman's birth, successfully revived interest in the character. Significantly, it was in this limited series that the ancient Atlantean characters Orin (whose name was given as Aquaman's Atlantean name) and Atlan (who was revealed to be Aquaman's father) were introduced.<br />
A new <i>Aquaman</i> ongoing series (#1-13) thereafter ran from December 1991 to December 1992, which portrayed Aquaman reluctantly deciding to remain in Poseidonis as its protector once again. For a time, he served as Atlantis' representative to the United Nations but always found himself thrust back into the superhero role. Becoming more and more of a workaholic and solitary figure, Aquaman eventually returned to the oceans. He soon became tangled up in another attempt by Black Manta to destroy Atlantis by dragging it into a war with a surface nation.<br />
Peter David returned to the character in another limited series, <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i>, a 1993/1994 four-issue series which further explained Aquaman's origins as he finally learned all about the history of his people through the <i>Atlantis Chronicles</i> (presented as historical texts passed down and updated through the centuries). Aquaman learned that his birth name was Orin and that he and his enemy Ocean Master shared the same father, "an ancient Atlantean wizard" called Atlan. This revelation sent Orin into a bout of rage and depression, setting the stage for later confrontations between the two, as it was said that "two brothers will also battle for control of Atlantis" (the Silver Age Aquaman had always known that the Ocean Master was his half-brother Orm, although Orm's amnesia prevented him from remembering that fact for some time).<br />

(Art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Calafiore" title="Jim Calafiore"><u><span style="color: blue;">Jim Calafiore</span></u></a>.</div></div></div>Aquaman received his own series again with the publication of the fifth <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Aug 1994), initially scripted by Peter David, following up on his 1993 <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i> limited series. This new <i>Aquaman</i> series was the longest-running for the character, lasting until its 75th issue. David left the series after issue #46 (Jul 1998) after working on it for nearly four years.<br />
Soon in <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 5) #2 (Sep 1994), Aquaman lost his left hand when the madman <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charybdis_(comics)" title="Charybdis (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Charybdis</span></u></a> stole his ability to communicate with sea life and stuck Arthur's hand into a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha" title="Piranha"><u><span style="color: blue;">piranha</span></u></a>-infested pool. This caused Aquaman to become somewhat unhinged, and he soon began having prophetic dreams. Soon after, he attached a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpoon" title="Harpoon"><u><span style="color: blue;">harpoon</span></u></a> spearhead to his left arm in place of his missing hand. This was the start of an entirely new look: the classic orange shirt was discarded for a gladiatorial <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorica_manica" title="Lorica manica"><u><span style="color: blue;">manica</span></u></a>. Forsaking his former clean-cut appearance, Aquaman grew long hair and a longish beard. After the destruction of the harpoon, Aquaman had it replaced with a cybernetic prosthetic from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.T.A.R._Labs" title="S.T.A.R. Labs"><u><span style="color: blue;">S.T.A.R. Labs</span></u></a>. This new harpoon had a retractable reel that he could fully control.<br />
A major storyline, culminating in #25, concerned the Five Lost Cities of Atlantis. Facing an unearthly invading species linked to the origin of the Atlanteans, Aquaman had to search out and unite the lost cities. This storyline established him as a true Warrior King, and he became a major political power. The remainder of Peter David's run focused on Orin coming to terms with his genetic heritage and his role as a king.<br />
After a brief stint by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Abnett" title="Dan Abnett"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Abnett</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Lanning" title="Andy Lanning"><u><span style="color: blue;">Andy Lanning</span></u></a>, David was replaced as writer by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Larsen" title="Erik Larsen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Erik Larsen</span></u></a> with issue #50 (Dec 1998). Larsen's work proved unpopular with readers, however, and with issue #63 (Jan 2000) he was replaced by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Jurgens" title="Dan Jurgens"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Jurgens</span></u></a>, who saw the series through to its cancellation with issue #75 (Jan 2001).<br />
Aquaman rejoined the JLA when it reformed and remained an active member of that team until the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Worlds_at_War" title="Our Worlds at War"><u><span style="color: blue;">Our Worlds at War</span></u></a></i> event, during which Aquaman and the city of Poseidonis disappeared and were presumed to be destroyed. The JLA later discovered that Poseidonis and its inhabitants were taken into the ancient past by a powerful Atlantean sorceress named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamemnae" title="Gamemnae"><u><span style="color: blue;">Gamemnae</span></u></a>. The people of Poseidonis were made slaves by their Atlantean ancestors, and Aquaman himself was transformed into living water and imprisoned in an ornamental pool.<br />
After a few months of their time — but fully fifteen years for the Atlanteans — the JLA freed Aquaman in "The Obsidian Age" storyline in <i>JLA</i> #66-75 (Jul 2002-Jan 2003), and Poseidonis and its people were returned to the present by the JLA, though not before Aquaman was forced to sink ancient Atlantis.<br />

They knew no violence; Peace and serenity were their way of life. King Thar came into power and ruled from Shayeris, the Idylist capital city. Thar had inherited much of his ancestor's mythic power, and practiced sorcery alongside his brother, Slizzath. The history of Atlantis is fraught with a recurring theme: brother against brother. King Thar was no exception. </div><div class="headerbig">Thar's brother Slizzath thought the power should be his and resented his brother taking it from him. Slizzath was denied his birthright because he dabbled in the black arts by practicing necromancy – the evocation of the dead. He was banished from the Hidden Valley but returned 20 years later with an army of undead soldiers. Fearing his brother's attack, Thar assembled an armory of weapons, specifically designed to stop Slizzath. The Idylists, however, thought Thar was going insane. The peace-loving people revolted, killing their once-beloved king. Fearing the monarchy was tainted by foul violence, the Idylists banished his now-pregnant wife, Berra, who found her way to Atlantis and gave birth to a son - who she named Garth.</div><div class="headerbig">Before Thar died, he was able to use his magics to trap Slizzath in an other-dimensional prison. It was, however, an imperfect imprisonment. Slizzath would be able to manipulate particular spells as a means of escape. Such a spell was Garth's birthright ritual - which he would one day perform to seal his mystical powers. Upon giving birth to Garth, Berra gazed upon his purple eyes - the Idylist mark of power. At that moment, her son's destiny seemed clear: Garth would one day perform the very spell that would free Slizzath. Feeling she had no other choice, Berra left her son to die.</div><table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="2" style="height: 20px; width: 12px;"><tbody>

</tbody></table><b>Meeting Aquaman</b><br />
Miraculously, Garth survived in the ocean depths on his own. As the infant grew into boyhood, he eventually met Atlantis' greatest hero, Aquaman. Befriended by Aquaman, the youth was cured of his fear and became Aqualad, the Sea King's junior partner in crime-fighting. Aqualad possessed abilities which, while not increased by a hybrid metabolism as are Aquaman's, were greater than those of the average Atlantean. Like Aquaman, he could telepathically control and converse with all manner of sea creatures, as well as being able to breathe underwater like all Atlanteans and to swim at fantastic speeds with super-human endurance. Also like his mentor, his sole weakness lay in his inability to remain on land without contact with water for longer than one hour without asphyxiating. <br />
After roaming the ocean depths with Aquaman (while attending school in Scotland by special arrangement), Aqualad returned to Atlantis as a permanent resident when Aquaman married Mera, the queen of an extra-dimensional water-world, and became the new king of Atlantis, and later have a son; which they named Arthur Jr.<br />

</tbody></table>The second meeting of the teen sidekicks was more eventful: Robin,Kid Flash, Aqualad, now joined by Wonder Girl and Speedy, fought against their mentors, who had been possessed by the evil Antithesis. At this second meeting, the five youngsters decided to become a team and the Teen Titans were born! The sidekicks would continue to operate with their mentors, as well as spending time with their peers in the Teen Titans. <br />
Aqualad eventually took an extended leave of absence from the Titans in order to aid Aquaman in a lengthy quest for Mera, who had been abducted by parties unknown, and to care for the royal couple's infant son in their absence. Aqualad was replaced in the group by Speedy. It was about this time that Garth began dating Tula, who was also known as Aquagirl. This began a long relationship that lasted until Tula's tragic death.<br />
In his absence, the Teen Titans had undergone radical changes, becoming the non-costumed, pacifist participants in the special training program run by Mr. Jupiter. Aqualad rejoined the Teen Titans, only to find himself at odds with their new ideologies, under the guidance of Loren Jupiter. He became an occasional member, helping out with a handful of cases. And as he did participate in the group, he was plagued with an undiagnosed sickness, which was actually a manifestation of an inferiority complex. It seemed Garth felt useless to the team, largely in part due to his one hour limitation away from water. Garth officially resigned from the team shortly before they eventually disbanded anyway.<br />

</tbody></table>The next incarnation of the Teen Titans was gathered by Raven, which Aqualad was not to be a part of, although he did assist the team on various cases - including the shattering Crisis on Infinite Earths. During the Crisis, Garth's longtime love Tula was killed. Garth was devastated.<br />
Aqualad remained in Atlantis, and grieved for a long time after the death of Tula. Still, Garth assisted the Titans on various missions. On one such case, Garth was abducted by a then-insane Mento (one of the sons of Black Manta). Mento used his helmet that granted him vast mental powers to inflict psychological torture on Garth. This somehow effected his ability to telepathically control sea life. It did, however, allow him to come to terms with the death of Tula, to some degree.<br />
Garth's marine telepathy would return a short time later, during the 'Millennium/Manhunter' conflict. Following that, Garth remained a close ally of the Titans. When the Titans were attacked and captured by the Wildebeest Society, Garth and Golden Eagle were savagely attacked; Golden Eagle was seemingly slain, and Garth lay in a coma for weeks. Once revived, Aqualad donned a new costume and helped ease the Titans into their next phase under the auspices of the United States government.<br />

Garth began to team up more regularly with Aquaman at this time. As the Aqua-allies tried to stave off an alien invasion, Garth was whisked away by Aquaman's father, Atlan, a mage who existed in another dimension. Atlan told Garth his destiny was to become a powerful mage as well. Atlan trained Garth in his dimension, and taught him how to greatly augment his powers. Garth studied with Atlan for a couple of years, although only a couple of months passed in Aquaman's world. Thus, Garth returned a short time after his disappearance (yet aged a couple of years) with new powers, including the ability to control the temperature of water and fire mystical power blasts from his eyes. Garth was also given a new purpose by Atlan, who told him his destiny was to protect all who live in the ocean.<br />
Upon his return, Garth encountered his uncle - Slizzath - who had transformed himself into a demonic sea creature through dark magic. Slizzath sought to escape his mystical imprisonment using Garth as a conduit. Slizzath created a mystical a doppelganger of Tula, who was created to trap Garth and siphon his new powers. Garth saw through the plan and was able to defeat Slizzath, and once and for all maintain a sense of closure about Tula's death. Garth also adopted a new identity as Tempest. <br />
During this time, Garth also discovered his mother Berra was still alive, and living with a group of Idyllists. This forced Garth to confront his feelings of abandonment by his mother, and mother and son began to take tentative steps toward rebuilding their relationship.<br />

Shortly after this, Garth began a relationship with Dolphin, who was once romantically involved with Aquaman. Initially, Garth and Dolphin concealed their relationship from Aquaman, unsure of what his reaction would be. Eventually, Aquaman learned of their relationship and gave them his blessing.<br />
The Titans later gathered together to save their former member, Victor Stone "Cyborg" (played by Victor Beckles in the movie "Teen Titans"), from alien influence. The original five Titans - including Tempest - decided to re-form the team with five additional recruits. <br />
Dolphin later discovered she was pregnant. Garth was happy at the news and proposed marriage. Garth and Dolphin were married in a traditional Atlantean ceremony with friends and family in attendance. Dolphin has since given birth to a son. Dolphin and Tempest's first child was named Cerdian by Aquaman as a gesture to the surface-country Cerdia, which had recently fallen under Atlantean control.<br />
Meanwhile, Aquaman's long lost son, is trapped in another dimension. But years later, returns to the modern DC Universe, with the help of The Spectre, his memory of his father, and background is altered, and he is brainwashed into becoming the new Aquaman.

Shortly after his arrival in the sea, Arthur Jr. Is mentally contacted by the mysterious "Dweller of the Depths", a deformed humanoid with tentacles instead of hair and a left hand made of water.

The Dweller, confusing Arthur for Aquaman and calling him his "charge", tells Arthur and King Shark of a prophecy regarding Arthur's future, a prophecy which seems to be a distorted version of the original Aquaman's history. The Dweller reveals that the original Aquaman was <i>"transformed into one akin to another dimension, to return to greatness once again in the future."</i><br />
Arthur Jr.'s first trip causes him to meet many of Aquaman's supporting characters including Mera, the Sea Devils, Vulko, and eventually <u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master (the brother of Dr. Phillip Curry and Arthur Curry- the original Aquaman)</span></u>. During this adventure, the Dweller progressively realizes that he himself is the original Aquaman, who slipped out of the pocket universe, The Spectre had him trapped in, despite having no memory of his former life, being married, and having three sons!<br />
Later Arthur Jr. finds a humanoid squid named Topo, a naive youth attracted by superheroics, seeking to become a sidekick, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Tempest</span></u></a>, now the father of a son and twins by his wife, Dolphin, he is unable to breathe water (re-gains all of his powers later) and implanted with a post-hypnotic suggestion warning of an upcoming battle. The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_League" title="Justice League"><u><span style="color: blue;">Justice League</span></u></a> is called in to evaluate Orin's situation, but are unable to determine if he is truly dead, or if he can somehow resurrect himself due to his new magical nature.<br />
In <i>Sword of Atlantis</i> #57, the series' final issue, Aquaman II is visited by the Lady of the Lake who explains his origins. The original Aquaman had given a sample of his water hand to his father in order to resurrect his dead son, Arthur, whom he had named after Orin. When Orin attempted to resurrect Sub Diego, part of his soul attached itself to the body of his son, Arthur Joseph Curry Jr., while Orin's physical form mutated into the Dweller. Blaming himself for Orin's disappearance into the Ultraverse, Aquaman II, vows to never be called "Arthur Jr." again, refraining from using the "stolen" name, asking only to be called Joseph in the future.<br />
Arthur Jr., is considered as a candidate for the new <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outsiders_(comics)" title="Outsiders (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Outsiders</span></u></a> by <u><span style="color: blue;">Batman (secretly knowing that he is in fact, Aquaman's son)</span></u>. After seeing him in action with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamorpho" title="Metamorpho"><u><span style="color: blue;">Metamorpho</span></u></a>, however, Batman decides against his induction.<br />
In their quest to rid the Earth of all forms of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">kryptonite</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman" title="Superman"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superman</span></u></a> and Batman journey deep below the sea and find a large amount of it. The two of them are met with hostility by Aquaman and King Shark. A brief fight ensues, but eventually Joseph allows them to take what they came for. Before doing so, he points out that not everyone may want Superman to find all of Earth's kryptonite, and that he would have to be at least part human to know that.<br />

<h2><span class="mw-headline">Powers and abilities</span></h2><a href="about:blank" id="Orin" name="Orin"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Orin</span></h3>Aquaman II, has a number of superhuman powers like his father, and superhuman strength, most of which derived from his father, and from the fact that he is adapted to live in the depths of the ocean. Primary among his powers is the ability to extract oxygen from water, allowing him to 'breathe' while submerged. He is unaffected by the immense pressure and the cold temperature of the ocean depths; further, he possesses an enhanced resistance to injury and superhuman strength (he can easily throw a car hundreds of feet). He is likewise able to swim at very high speeds. He can see in near total darkness and has enhanced hearing. Although he can remain underwater indefinitely without suffering any ill effects, Aquaman grows weak if he remains on land for extended periods.<br />
Aquaman II's most famous (or infamous) power is the telepathic ability to communicate with/command oceanic life. The range of this power is unclear; certainly he can summon sea life from vast distances. Although this power is most often and most easily used on marine life, Aquaman II, has on multiple occasions demonstrated the capacity to affect any being evolved from marine life (e.g., humans), or that lives upon the sea (e.g. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_eagle" title="Sea eagle"><u><span style="color: blue;">sea eagles</span></u></a>).<br />
Aquaman II's telepathic abilities are otherwise unrefined but it has been demonstrated on multiple occasions that he can use his abilities to supplement other more skilled telepaths such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian_Manhunter" title="Martian Manhunter"><u><span style="color: blue;">J'onn J'onzz</span></u></a>. He has also demonstrated classic telepathic abilities like telepathic eavesdropping on people's thoughts, but this ability was displayed infrequently.<br />
After the loss of his hand, Aquaman II, initially replaced it with a cybernetic harpoon that responded to his thoughts and could be fired while staying attached via a retractable line. Later, the harpoon was replaced by a magical hand made out of water given to him by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, which grants Aquaman II Numerous abilities, including but not limited to: the ability to dehydrate anyone he touches with it, killing them instantly; to make the hand extremely dense, thus taking Aquaman II, to the ocean floor quickly; to shoot jets of scalding water; healing abilities; and the ability to nullify magic.<br />

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. (a.k.a "Arthur Jr.")</span></h3>The new Aquaman has many physical abilities in common with his father, the original Aquaman, including underwater breathing, submarine speed, and superhuman strength. Like the Golden Age Aquaman, Arthur Jr. Can't survive outside of water for long. He also gained telepathic powers. He now speaks and understands the languages of the sentient sea peoples unaided, and has a limited ability to communicate with nonsentient sea life. He cannot speak directly to them as his predecessor could, but can send and receive emotional impressions and desires, such as communicating a need for help. He is working to expand the latter ability, and in one instance has been able to "see" through the eyes of nearby fish. In the motion picture; "Aquaman" (2014), Charlie Hunnam, who beat out Brad Pitt for the legendary role, as Arthur Curry a new "Savior" to the rediscovered lost city of Atlantis in Aquaman... This Aquaman, who will be the Golden Age version of the iconic hero, but will have all the flare and saga of "Aquman's Son" Arthur Curry, Jr., (or Arthur Joseph Curry): based on the 2007 comic book series "Aquaman: The Sword of Atlantis", and the "Young Justice" 2011 cartoon series; this movie series will kick butt, and fans are going to really love it!! AQUAMAN the movie trilogy, will bring back to life all of the characters & core heroes of the Aquaman comic book mythos, and revamp the abandoned "Aquaman" comic book title & reboot the series to a whole new level. Redefining & increasing powers of the legends of Aquaman, Aqualad, Mera, and Vulko as irreplaceable heroes in the DC Universe. The Movie saga will inspire fans, and have all the combination themes of other fan favorite movies like: STAR WARS, (the special effects & magical powers of HARRY POTTER), LORD OF THE RINGS, AND TRON: LEGACY, BATMAN & ROBIN, SUPERMAN, AND THE MATRIX TRILOGY....</blockquote><div class="picture-pic picture-pic-1 hover" hover-type="menu" id="n_72-1" s:contextmenu="Shr.Menus.None" s:menuargs="72-1" style="background-color: #f0eeef; border-bottom: #88a942 1px solid; border-left: #88a942 1px solid; border-right: #88a942 1px solid; border-top: #88a942 1px solid; height: 427px; width: 278px;"><div><img height="427px" sid="72" src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procsrserv/47b9dc38b3127cce98548a41d7b300000040000QbMmTdu4asv/cC/rx=278/ry=427/cr=0.0,0.0,1,1" width="278px" /></div></div><br style="clear: both; font-size: 1px;" /><br />

He was also shown to have the ability to communicate with sea-life and have them do his bidding. Initially, he was depicted as speaking to sea creatures "in their own language", and only when they were close enough to hear him rather than being telepathic in nature. While he was often described as the "sovereign of the sea," with the waters of the entire globe his "domain," and almost every sea creature his "loyal subject," the title was never an official one. Aquaman's adventures took place all across the world, and the only base he appeared to have was "an ancient temple of lost Atlantis, kept underwater," in which he kept a solitary throne.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-1" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> There was also a structure called the "Aquacave", a dry series of caves in which he kept the "Atlantis Chronicles", although it is unclear if this is distinct from the ancient temple, or the same location.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-aqua_2-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-aqua-2" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup><br />
During his <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II"><u><span style="color: blue;">wartime</span></u></a> adventures, most of Aquaman's foes were <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism" title="Nazism"><u><span style="color: blue;">Nazi</span></u></a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-boat" title="U-boat"><u><span style="color: blue;">U-boat</span></u></a> commanders and various <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_powers" title="Axis powers"><u><span style="color: blue;">Axis</span></u></a> villains. The rest of his adventures in the 1940s and 1950s had him dealing with various sea-based criminals, including modern-day pirates such as his longtime archenemy Black Jack, as well as various threats to aquatic life, shipping lanes, and sailors.<br />

Due to his heritage, Aquaman discovered as a youth that he possessed various superhuman abilities, including the powers of surviving underwater, communication with sea life, and tremendous swimming prowess. Eventually, Arthur decided to use his talents to become the defender of the Earth's oceans, first starting a career as "Aquaboy" (that also became the name of Aquaman's last son, years later in 2009, after his discovery that his first son; Arthur Jr., whose name was changed to Arthur Joseph Curry, was still alive and protected by The Spectre; was conceived by Mera, after falling in love with him again, and became re-married) and meeting <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kal-El)" title="Superboy (Kal-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> (Earth's only other superpowered hero at the time) on one occasion (<i>Superboy</i> #171, Jan 1971). When Arthur grew up, he called himself "Aquaman".<br />
It was later revealed (in <i>Aquaman</i> #29) that after Atlanna's death, Tom Curry met and married an ordinary human woman and had a son named Orm Curry, Aquaman's half-brother. Orm grew up as a troubled youth in the shadow of his brother (along with Nathan Hayes, a black navy seal, who becomes "Black Manta"), who constantly bailed him out of trouble with the law. He grew to hate Aquaman not only for the powers that he could never possess but also because he knew that their father would always favor Aquaman. Orm disappeared after becoming an amnesiac and would resurface years later as Aquaman's archnemesis, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a>.<br />
By the late 1950s, Aquaman's ability to talk with fish had been expanded to full-fledged telepathic communication with sea creatures even from great distances, but in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #256 (Jan 1959) he was also <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroactive_continuity" title="Retroactive continuity"><u><span style="color: blue;">retroactively</span></u></a> given a specific weakness akin to Superman's vulnerability to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">Kryptonite</span></u></a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Lantern" title="Green Lantern"><u><span style="color: blue;">Green Lantern</span></u></a>'s vulnerability to the color yellow: Aquaman had to come into contact with water at least once per hour, or he would get weak (prior to this story Aquaman could exist both in and out of water indefinitely). This problem was later explained as a characteristic of all Atlanteans. But it doesn't apply to Aquaman anymore, because over the years, he develops new powers and abilities, and discovers that he is involving into a powerful being. More powerful that Superman.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Allies_and_foes" name="Allies_and_foes"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">Allies and foes</span></h4>Aquaman was included in the <i>Justice League of America</i> comic book series, appearing with the team in their very first adventure in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brave_and_the_Bold" title="The Brave and the Bold"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Brave and the Bold</span></u></a></i> #28 (Feb-Mar 1960). He was a founding member of the team, as shown in a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashback" title="Flashback"><u><span style="color: blue;">flashback</span></u></a> in <i>Justice League of America</i> #9 (Feb 1962). Aquaman took part in most of the 1960s adventures of the superhero team.<br />
With <i>Adventure Comics</i> #269 (Feb 1960), Aquaman's supporting cast and rogues gallery began to grow with the addition of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Aqualad</span></u></a>, an outcast, orphaned youth from an Atlantean colony whom Aquaman takes in and begins to mentor. <i>Adventure Comics</i> #264 (Sep 1959) introduced the submerged <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:DC_Comics_cities_and_towns" title="Category:DC Comics cities and towns"><u><span style="color: blue;">fictional city</span></u></a> of New Venice, which was later revealed to be based in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida" title="Florida"><u><span style="color: blue;">Florida</span></u></a> and which also became Aquaman's base of operations for a time in the early 1980s, beginning with <i>World's Finest Comics</i> #263 (Jun-Jul 1980).<br />
Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> until issue #284 (May 1961), when the feature moved to <i>Detective Comics</i> from issues #293-300 (Jul 1961-Feb 1962), then to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #125-139 (May 1962-Feb 1964). After four tryout issues in bi-monthly <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Showcase_(comics)" title="Showcase (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Showcase</span></u></a></i> (#30-33, Feb-Aug 1961), Aquaman gained his own series for the first time with the publication of <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Jan-Feb 1962).<br />
Aquaman eventually met the Atlanteans and became their ally. He was recognized as the son of Atlanna and later voted to be the King after the death of the former regent, who had no heirs. By this time Aquaman had met <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mera_(comics)" title="Mera (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Mera</span></u></a>, a queen from a water-based dimension, and he married her at the same time he was crowned king of Atlantis, <i>Aquaman</i> #18 (Nov-Dec 1964). They soon had a son, Arthur, Jr. (nicknamed "Aquababy") in issue #23 (Sep-Oct 1965).<br />
The 1960s series introduced other such archenemies as the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a> (Aquaman's amnesiac half-brother Orm), <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> (a former Navy Seal, College Professor, and Millionaire-Business Genius, like Lex Luthor), the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisherman_(comics)" title="Fisherman (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Fisherman</span></u></a>, the Scavenger, and the terrorist organization known as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O.G.R.E._(comics)" title="O.G.R.E. (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">O.G.R.E.</span></u></a> Other recurring members of the Aquaman cast introduced in this series include the well-meaning but annoying <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qwsp" title="Qwsp"><u><span style="color: blue;">Quisp</span></u></a> (a water sprite); Dr. Vulko, a trustworthy Atlantean scientist who became Aquaman's royal advisor and whom Aquaman eventually appoints to be king after leaving the throne himself; and Tula (known as "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Tula" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Aquagirl</span></u></a>"), an Atlantean princess who was Aqualad's primary love interest (she died with the secret of baring his first son, Ethan).</div></div><div class="cf-title" style="margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-top: 10px;">Published by <a href="http://community.shutterfly.com/gallery/aboutme/start.sfly?alias=sonofaquamanL&cid=SHARE3SXXXX" target="_blank"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">sonofaquamanL</span></a> at 1:34pm<span class="pipe"><span style="color: #999999;">|</span></span><span class="commentsCount"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">0 Comments</span></span></div><div class="hr divider" style="font-size: 4px;"> </div><div id="n_236"><div class="journalItem"><div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><span class="journalItemHeader"><img class="ti-bullet2 noselect" src="http://www.blogger.com/shr/images/blank/74039724.gif" /><a href="http://legendofaquaman.shutterfly.com/#"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">COPIED & WRITTEN BY MATT CHOINAIRE AND EVAN WADE:</span></a></span></div><div class="journalItemBody"><h4><span class="mw-headline">Back to basics</span></h4><div class="thumb tright"><div class="thumbinner" style="width: 182px;"><a class="image" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet."><img alt="" border="0" class="thumbimage" height="280px" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/ce/Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg/180px-Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" width="180px" /></a> <div class="thumbcaption"><div class="magnify"><a class="internal" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="Enlarge"><span style="background-image: none; border-bottom-color: #0000ff; border-bottom-width: 2px; border-left-color: #0000ff; border-left-width: 2px; border-right-color: #0000ff; border-right-width: 2px; border-top-color: #0000ff; border-top-width: 2px; cursor: hand; display: inline-block; font-size: 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="display: inline-block; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='http://en.wikipedia.org/skins-1.5/common/images/magnify-clip.png'); height: 1px; width: 1px;"></span></span></a></div>2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet.</div></div></div>A sixth <i>Aquaman</i> series began shortly afterwards, initially written by <u><span style="color: blue;">Rick Veitch, Matt Gagston, and Dr. Frank Beckles</span></u> who sought to take Aquaman in a more mystical direction, by bringing back Aquaman's son, Arthur Jr., and re-naming him Arthur Joseph Curry. Subsequent writers who contributed to the series include <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ostrander" title="John Ostrander"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Ostrander</span></u></a>, Will Pfeifer, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Arcudi" title="John Arcudi"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Arcudi</span></u></a>. This series ran from issue #1 (Feb 2003) to #39 (Apr 2006) when it was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> (see below).<br />
As shown in this next series, The original Aquaman returns and his decision to sink ancient Atlantis caused displeasure among some of the city's citizens, and Arthur Jr. Was once again driven out of Poseidonis. He spent some time in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ireland" title="Ireland"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ireland</span></u></a>, where he met the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, who gave him a new prosthetic hand composed of mystical water with unusual properties. From there he returned to his more traditional look: orange shirt, short hair, and beardless.<br />
Later, Aquaman went to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Diego" title="San Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">San Diego</span></u></a> after a massive <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthquake" title="Earthquake"><u><span style="color: blue;">earthquake</span></u></a> plunged half the city into the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean" title="Pacific Ocean"><u><span style="color: blue;">Pacific Ocean</span></u></a>. He soon discovered that the survivors of the catastrophe were able to breathe underwater and began helping them to rebuild the submerged portion of the city they now called "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a>".<br />
During this time, Aquaman picked up a new sidekick named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Lorena_Marquez" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lorena</span></u></a>, who eventually became the new Aquagirl. For a time, it appeared that Aquaman might reconcile with Mera, as he attempted to take her to the surface in order to save her from the Atlantean mages who had transformed her into an air-breather, they fell in love again, and she concieved another son, so one day Aquaman's rightful heir will take his place at the throne.<br />
Shortly thereafter, during the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis" title="Infinite Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Infinite Crisis</span></u></a></i> event, Atlantis was nearly destroyed by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectre_(comics)" title="Spectre (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Spectre</span></u></a>, and many of its citizens were transported to a Pocket Universe, called "The Ultraverse"; where Spectre revealed that his intention was to bring back Aquaman's son, and restore peace and honor to Atlantis, including Aquaman's second son, Koryak and his oldest friend, (and father figure), Vulko. Arthur Joseph Curry (Arthur Jr./Aquaman's son) led the survivors to Sub Diego in the hope that the two displaced peoples could help each other. When <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> attacked the sunken city, Aquaman defeated him and left him for dead, he survived; and joined forces with Lex Luthor to destroy Aquaman & Superman, but Black Manta betrayed him and took LexCorp, and he took Lex's woman, made her his lover, and she bore a son; who will later grow up to replace him, as "Devil Ray" (Justice League: Unlimited) and try again to kill Aquaman and his family and fail, because of Aquaman's increasing powers & abilities (simular to Superman), during the course of his life he is rediscovering his aquatic, mystical, and untapped awesome abilities. To become the true "Savior" and Protector of Atlantis...<br />
Aquaman made a brief appearance at the memorial for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kon-El)" title="Superboy (Kon-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></a></i>. With <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 6) #40 (May 2006), the series was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> and taken in an entirely different direction by writers <u><span style="color: blue;">Kurt Busiek, Matt Choinaire, and Vic "The Iceman" Beckles</span></u>.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="The_Missing_Year" name="The_Missing_Year"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">The Missing Year</span></h4>During week 39 of the "missing year" depicted in the weekly comic book <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><i><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></i></a>, <u><span style="color: blue;">Ralph Dibny</span></u>, seemingly accompanied by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Fate" title="Doctor Fate"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dr. Fate</span></u></a>'s helmet, meets a bearded, long-haired, and amnesic Orin in the ruins of Atlantis. The helmet portends that <i>"if he lives... <b>if</b> he lives... it is as a victim of the magicks of legend and the power of the sea"</i>.<br />
Orin was transformed into the Dweller of the Depths during Week 50 of <i>52</i> in the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_III_(comics)" title="World War III (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">World War III</span></u></a></i> event. In a desperate bid to save the life of several <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a> inhabitants who have lost the ability to live in water, Orin makes a deal with the gods of the sea to gain the power to save them. Using the bones of his severed left hand in a magical ritual, the sea gods give Orin the power to raise Sub Diego onto dry land. However, Orin mutates into the <i>Dweller of the Depths</i> as a side effect of gaining his new abilities and loses his memories as a result. He is presumed dead in <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> #50, and his son Arthur Joseph Curry officially becomes the new Aquaman (for only a brief moment in the DC Universe).<br />
The original Aquaman returns to life in his original costume, without a full explanation, in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Crisis" title="Final Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Final Crisis</span></u></a></i> #7. All that is said is that he and his son (along with Garth & his Son Cerdian) was prophesied to return to Atlantis in his people's hour of greatest need (2010).<br />
<br />
The "Aquaman" movie trilogy, and upcoming Aquaman comic series (2011-Present): Will re-enforce all central concepts profiled on this website, and maintain the true legacy of Aquaman!!!<br />

<div sizcache="43" sizset="329">There are several reasons why it would take so long to get "Aquaman" into theaters, according to the rumor. Chief among them is the fact that Warner considers Aquaman to be "a third tier superhero character and they aren't in a hurry to invest heavily in him." The studio also reportedly wants to put "The Flash," "<a href="http://splashpage.mtv.com/tag/wonder-woman"><span style="color: #e07623;">Wonder Woman</span></a>" and "<a href="http://splashpage.mtv.com/tag/green-lantern-2"><span style="color: #e07623;">Green Lantern 2</span></a>" into development before even considering "Aquaman."</div><div sizcache="43" sizset="331">This isn't the first time an "Aquaman" movie rumor has come up for air in recent weeks. Actor <a href="http://splashpage.mtv.com/tag/alan-ritchson"><span style="color: #e07623;">Alan Ritchson</span></a>, who plays Aquaman on "<a href="http://splashpage.mtv.com/tag/smallville"><span style="color: #e07623;">Smallville</span></a>," recently revealed that he's heard rumblings about <a href="http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/11/19/smallville-aquaman-tv-series-movie/"><span style="color: #e07623;">an "Aquaman" solo movie</span></a>.</div>"A movie, on the other hand, I think is very much a reality. In fact, I think there's one in the works," he said in November. "Some people in LA are starting to get the ball rolling on that." <br />
"But it's just so expensive to do," he added. "It's hard to say if it's really going to happen."<br />

Rumors; that Charlie Hunnam will officially play 'Aquaman', Elijah Wood will be Garth (the original Aqualad), and Vic Beckles will be their nemisis- Black Manta; with a cameo appearance by actor & director, Matt Gagston as Ocean Master...<br />

The series was well received and a follow up limited series was in the works, though it was eventually canceled due to creative problems.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-12"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-12"><span style="color: #0645ad;"><span>[</span>13<span>]</span></span></a></sup> This series also expanded on several details of the Silver Age Aquaman's origin as well as Aquaman's relationship with his half-brother, Ocean Master, whose origin was retold in more complete detail. The series also added mystical elements to Aquaman's mythology and reinvented Ocean Master as a sorcerer. Aquaman reappeared in his blue costume in the <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 (1988).<br />
In late 1988, the character appeared in the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion!_(DC_Comics)" title="Invasion! (DC Comics)"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Invasion!</span></a></i> crossover, guest starring with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doom_Patrol" title="Doom Patrol"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Doom Patrol</span></a>, again in the orange and green costume.<br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline" id="Retelling_origins">Retelling origins</span></h4>In 1989, the <i>Legend of Aquaman Special</i> (officially titled as <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 in the comic's legal indicia, the second <i>Special</i> in back-to-back years) rewrote Aquaman's mythos and origin, though keeping most of his Silver Age history intact. The special was by writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Loren_Fleming" title="Robert Loren Fleming"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Robert Loren Fleming</span></a>, with plots/breakdown art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Giffen" title="Keith Giffen"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Keith Giffen</span></a> and full pencil art by artist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curt_Swan" title="Curt Swan"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Curt Swan</span></a>.<br />
The Modern Age Aquaman is born as Orin to Queen Atlanna and the mysterious wizard <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlan_(DC_Comics)" title="Atlan (DC Comics)"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Atlan</span></a> in the Atlantean city of <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Poseidonis_(comics)&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Poseidonis (comics) (page does not exist)"><span style="color: #ba0000;">Poseidonis</span></a>. As a baby, he was abandoned on Mercy Reef (which is above sea level at low tide, causing exposure to air which would be fatal to Atlanteans) because of his blond hair, which was seen by the superstitious Atlanteans as a sign of a curse they called "the Mark of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Aquaman_enemies#Kordax" title="List of Aquaman enemies"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Kordax</span></a>." The only individual who spoke up on Orin's behalf was Vulko, a scientist who had no patience for myth or superstition. While his pleas fell on deaf ears, Vulko would later become a close friend and advisor to the young Orin.<br />
As a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_child" title="Feral child"><span style="color: #0645ad;">feral child</span></a> who raised himself in the wilds of the ocean with only sea creatures to keep him company, Orin was found and taken in by a lighthouse keeper named Arthur Curry who named Orin "Arthur Curry" after himself. One day, Orin returned home and found that his adoptive father had disappeared, so he set off on his own. In his early teens, Orin ventured to the far north, where he met and fell in love with an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inupiat_people" title="Inupiat people"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Inupiat</span></a> girl named Kako. He also first earned the hatred of Orm, the future Ocean Master who was later revealed to be Arthur's half-brother by Atlan and an Inupiat woman (<i>Time and Tide</i>, no. 4). Orin was driven away before he could learn that Kako had become pregnant with his son, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koryak" title="Koryak"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Koryak</span></a>.<br />
Orin then returned to the seas mostly staying out of humanity's sight, until he discovered Poseidonis. He was captured by the city's then-dictatorial government and placed in a prison camp, where he met Vulko, also a prisoner of the state, who taught Orin the language and ways of the Atlanteans. While Orin was there, he realized that his mother was also being held captive, but after her death he broke out and fled. Eventually, he made his way to the surface world, where under the name of "Aquaman" he became one of several superheroes emerging into the public view at the time. Upon his return to Poseidonis, he was made the king, and sometime later he met and married Mera. The Modern Age Aquaman's history is nearly identical to that of the Silver Age Aquaman from this point on.<br />
As detailed in the five-issue <i>Aquaman</i> limited series (June – Oct. 1989) (by the same creative team of the 1989 special of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Loren_Fleming" title="Robert Loren Fleming"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Robert Loren Fleming</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Giffen" title="Keith Giffen"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Keith Giffen</span></a>, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curt_Swan" title="Curt Swan"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Curt Swan</span></a>), which continued a few of the themes from the <i>Legend of Aquaman Special</i>, Mera was eventually driven insane by grief over the death of Arthur, Jr., and was committed to an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychiatric_hospital" title="Psychiatric hospital"><span style="color: #0645ad;">asylum</span></a> in Poseidonis. Shortly afterwards, an alien force conquered Atlantis. Arthur was forced to save the city but was hampered by an escaped Mera who personally blamed Arthur for the death of their son. In a fit of rage, Mera left Aquaman's dimension.<br />
The publication of writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_David" title="Peter David"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Peter David</span></a>'s <i><a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Atlantis_Chronicles" title="The Atlantis Chronicles"><span style="color: #0645ad;">The Atlantis Chronicles</span></a></i> #1-7 (March – Sept. 1990), which told the story of Atlantis from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antediluvian" title="Antediluvian"><span style="color: #0645ad;">antediluvian</span></a> times to Aquaman's birth, successfully revived interest in the character introduced the ancient Atlantean characters Orin (after whom Aquaman was named) and Atlan (who was revealed to be Aquaman's father).<br />
A new <i>Aquaman</i> ongoing series with creative team <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaun_McLaughlin" title="Shaun McLaughlin"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Shaun McLaughlin</span></a> and Ken Hooper (#1-13) thereafter ran from December 1991 to December 1992, which portrayed Aquaman reluctantly deciding to remain in Poseidonis as its protector once again. For a time, he served as Atlantis' representative to the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations" title="United Nations"><span style="color: #0645ad;">United Nations</span></a> but always found himself thrust back into the superhero role. Becoming more and more of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workaholic" title="Workaholic"><span style="color: #0645ad;">workaholic</span></a> and solitary figure, Aquaman eventually returned to the oceans. He soon became tangled up in another attempt by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Black Manta</span></a> to destroy Atlantis by dragging it into a war with a surface nation.<br />
Peter David returned to the character in another limited series, <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i>, a 1993/1994 four-issue series which further explained Aquaman's origins as he finally learned all about the history of his people through the <i>Atlantis Chronicles</i> (presented as historical texts passed down and updated through the centuries). Aquaman learned that his birth name was Orin and that he and his enemy Ocean Master shared the same father, "an ancient Atlantean wizard" named Atlan. This revelation sent Orin into a bout of rage and depression, setting the stage for later confrontations between the two, as it was said in the Chronicles that "two brothers will also battle for control of Atlantis" (the Silver Age Aquaman had always known that the Ocean Master was his half-brother Orm, although Orm's amnesia prevented him from remembering that fact for some time). This series is credited by Kevin Melrose of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_Book_Resources" title="Comic Book Resources"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Comic Book Resources</span></a> with helping the character reach the height of his modern-era popularity.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-13"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-13"><span style="color: #0645ad;"><span>[</span>14<span>]</span></span></a></sup><br />

Art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Calafiore" title="Jim Calafiore"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Jim Calafiore</span></a>.</div></div></div>Aquaman received his own series again with the publication of the fifth <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Aug. 1994), initially scripted by Peter David, following up on his 1993 <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i> limited series. This new <i>Aquaman</i> series was the longest-running for the character, lasting until its 75th issue. David left the series after issue #46 (July 1998) after working on it for nearly four years.<br />
David began by giving Aquaman an entirely new look, forsaking his former clean-cut appearance. Following his discoveries reading the Atlantis Chronicles during the Time and Tide series, Aquaman withdraws from the world for a time. Garth finds him weeks later, with his hair and beard grown long, brooding in his cave. Soon after (vol. 5, #2, Sept. 1994), Aquaman loses his left hand when the madman <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charybdis_(comics)" title="Charybdis (comics)"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Charybdis</span></a> steals his ability to communicate with sea life and sticks Arthur's hand into a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha" title="Piranha"><span style="color: #0645ad;">piranha</span></a>-infested pool. This causes Aquaman to become somewhat unhinged, and he begins having prophetic dreams, and then, in need of a "symbol", attaches a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpoon" title="Harpoon"><span style="color: #0645ad;">harpoon</span></a> spearhead to his left arm in place of his missing hand. His classic orange shirt is shredded in a battle with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobo_(DC_Comics)" title="Lobo (DC Comics)"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Lobo</span></a> (#4), and rather than replace it he goes topless for a while before donning a gladiatorial <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorica_manica" title="Lorica manica"><span style="color: #0645ad;">manica</span></a> (#5). After the destruction of the harpoon (#8), Aquaman has it replaced with a cybernetic <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosthetic" title="Prosthetic"><span style="color: #0645ad;">prosthetic</span></a> from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.T.A.R._Labs" title="S.T.A.R. Labs"><span style="color: #0645ad;">S.T.A.R. Labs</span></a> (#9). This new harpoon has a retractable reel that he can fully control.<br />
A major storyline, culminating in #25, concerns the Five Lost Cities of Atlantis. Facing an unearthly invading species linked to the origin of the Atlanteans, Aquaman has to search out and unite the lost cities. This storyline establishes him as a Warrior King, and he becomes a major political power, ruling largely undisputed over all the Atlantean cities. The remainder of Peter David's run focused on Orin coming to terms with his genetic heritage and his role as a king. During this time he discovers the remnants of a sentient alien ship beneath Poseidonis, and is able to take control of it, returning Poseidonis to the surface and bringing Atlantis into greater contact with the outside world. The cultural changes this brings about, including increased tourism, as well as his conflicting duties as superhero and king, bring him into increasing tension with the political powers in his city.<br />
After a brief stint by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Abnett" title="Dan Abnett"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Dan Abnett</span></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Lanning" title="Andy Lanning"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Andy Lanning</span></a>, David was replaced as writer by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Larsen" title="Erik Larsen"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Erik Larsen</span></a> with issue #50 (Dec. 1998) and again by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Jurgens" title="Dan Jurgens"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Dan Jurgens</span></a> in issue #63 (Jan. 2000); the series ended with #75 (Jan. 2001). During this time his wife Mera returns, now sane again, from the otherworldly dimension where she had been trapped, and Aquaman narrowly averts a coup d'état orchestrated by his son Koryak and his advisor Vulko. His second harpoon is also destroyed, this time in a battle with Noble, king of the Lurkers; he replaces it with a golden prosthetic hand developed by Atlantean scientists which can change shape at his command, thus retaining the powers of the harpoon but being more all-purpose. After a brief war with an island nation, Aquaman expands Atlantis' surface influence by annexing the country to Atlantis.<br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline" id="Hiatus_between_series">Hiatus between series</span></h4>Aquaman had no regular series of his own from 2001–2003, but his plot went through several developments via his cameo appearances in several other titles.<br />
Aquaman had rejoined the JLA when it reformed<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-14"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-14"><span style="color: #0645ad;"><span>[</span>15<span>]</span></span></a></sup> and remains an active, if sometimes reluctant member of that team until the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Worlds_at_War" title="Our Worlds at War"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Our Worlds at War</span></a></i> event in 2001 (shortly after the cancellation of <i>Aquaman</i> vol. 5), during which Aquaman and the city of Poseidonis disappeared and were presumed to be destroyed during a confrontation between Aquaman and an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperiex" title="Imperiex"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Imperiex</span></a> probe. In its place was simply a huge rift in the water of the ocean, with a vast spectral statue of Aquaman standing over it that the JLA installed as a holographic 'beacon' to both warn ships away from the trench and provide a signal for the Atlanteans to use if they were ever able to find their way back.<br />
The Justice League eventually found that the city was still there, just magically shielded, but in ruins and apparently uninhabited. The Atlanteans were trapped in the ancient past, where Tempest had sent them as a last measure when it appeared that the city would be destroyed by the probe. There, however, they were enslaved by their own Atlantean ancestors, led by a powerful sorceress named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamemnae" title="Gamemnae"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Gamemnae</span></a>, and Aquaman himself was transformed into living water and imprisoned in an ornamental pool. Over time, this civilization had collapsed until only Gamemnae herself, now immensely powerful, inhabited the ruins.<br />
After a few months of their time — but fully fifteen years for the Atlanteans — the JLA free Aquaman in "The Obsidian Age" storyline in <i>JLA</i>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-15"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-15"><span style="color: #0645ad;"><span>[</span>16<span>]</span></span></a></sup> Although the original League were killed by Gamemnae, their souls were contained by the magician <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manitou_Raven" title="Manitou Raven"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Manitou Raven</span></a> to use in a spell to contain Gamemnae in Atlantis until the present day, when he was able to resurrect them. With the aid of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Grayson" title="Dick Grayson"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Nightwing</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawkgirl#Kendra_Saunders" title="Hawkgirl"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Hawkgirl</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firestorm_(Ronald_Raymond)" title="Firestorm (Ronald Raymond)"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Firestorm</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zatanna" title="Zatanna"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Zatanna</span></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manitou_Raven" title="Manitou Raven"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Manitou Raven</span></a>- the first four being members of the 'reserve JLA' that had been put together by an automatic program created by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman" title="Batman"><span style="color: #0645ad;">Batman</span></a> that kicked in after the League vanished into the past, who had gone back in time with the aid of the Manitou Raven of their time-, Aquaman is freed from his prison in the pool, Firestorm linking the pool to the ocean and Zatanna enhancing his powers so that he can now control the entire ocean as a water wraith. With this power, Aquaman is able to sever Gamemnae's connection to the city by sinking it under the sea again, While he fought Gamemnae, the League members returned the modern Atlanteans to the present where they could begin rebuilding the city, which in the present too was once again at the bottom of the sea.<br />

It's going to focus on the entire Aquaman comic book saga, and have appearances of other DC Heroes & Villians. It should rival, and might beat the Wolverine & Spiderman Franchises.<br />
The original <i>Aquaman</i> series ended with issue #56 (Mar-Apr 1971). Aquaman was given his own feature again in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #435-437, and #441-452, this time as the main feature in most of these issues. The <i>Aquaman</i> series was restarted with issue #57 (Aug-Sep 1977) and ran until issue #63 (Aug-Sep 1978), when it was finally canceled. Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #460-466, when his feature moved to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #262-264, and back to <i>Adventure Comics</i> (for the final time) from issues #475-478. Aquaman appeared in a backup feature in <i>Action Comics</i> which he shared with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_(Ray_Palmer)" title="Atom (Ray Palmer)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atom</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Wave" title="Air Wave"><u><span style="color: blue;">Air Wave</span></u></a> in various issues. Throughout this time Aquaman also appeared in various series (such as <i>Justice League of America</i>, <i>The Brave and the Bold</i>, <i>World's Finest Comics</i>, and <i>DC Comics Presents</i>) in partnership with other superheroes.<br />
After becoming king of Atlantis, Aquaman began a policy of slowly reintroducing the once-secretive Atlantis to the surface world. After he was briefly ousted from the throne by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_(comics)" title="Shark (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Shark</span></u></a> (whom he defeated), he made the decision to leave the throne to become a more traditional superhero, and Dr. Vulko was elected as the new king.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="End_of_an_era" name="End_of_an_era"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">End of an era</span></h4>In the mid-1980s, after his own feature's demise, Aquaman was briefly made the leader of the Justice League of America. In a storyline told in <i>Justice League of America</i> #228-230, an invasion of Earth by a race of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian" title="Martian"><u><span style="color: blue;">Martians</span></u></a> occurred at a time when the core members were missing. Aquaman was thus forced to defend Earth with a League much-depleted in power and capability, and he took it upon himself to disband the Justice League altogether in <i>Justice League of America Annual</i> #2 (1984), thereafter reforming it with new bylaws requiring members to give full participation to the League's cases. With the help of a small number of veteran Justice League members willing to fully commit to the team, Aquaman recruited and trained four new and untried members, also relocating the team's headquarters to a reinforced bunker in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit" title="Detroit"><u><span style="color: blue;">Detroit</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan" title="Michigan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Michigan</span></u></a> after the destruction of the JLA's satellite headquarters during the invasion.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-jlah_4-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-jlah-4" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> Aquaman's participation in this new version of the Justice League ended in #243 (Oct 1985), when he resigned to work on his marriage with Mera. Subsequently, two of the four new recruits (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibe_(comics)" title="Vibe (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Vibe</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commander_Steel#Hank_Heywood_III" title="Commander Steel"><u><span style="color: blue;">Steel</span></u></a>) were killed in action.<br />

The series was well received and a follow up limited series was in the works, though it was eventually canceled due to creative problems.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-5" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> This series also expanded on several details of the Silver Age Aquaman's origin as well as Aquaman's relationship with his half-brother, Ocean Master, whose origin was retold in more complete detail. The series also added mystical elements to Aquaman's mythology and reinvented Ocean Master as a sorcerer. Aquaman reappeared in his blue costume in the <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 (1988).<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Retelling_origins" name="Retelling_origins"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">Retelling origins</span></h4>In 1989, the <i>Legend of Aquaman Special</i> (officially titled as <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 in the comic's legal indicia, the second <i>Special</i> in back-to-back years) rewrote Aquaman's mythos and origin, though keeping most of his Silver Age history intact. The special was by writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Loren_Fleming" title="Robert Loren Fleming"><u><span style="color: blue;">Robert Loren Fleming</span></u></a>, with plots/breakdown art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Giffen" title="Keith Giffen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Keith Giffen</span></u></a> and full pencil art by artist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curt_Swan" title="Curt Swan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Curt Swan</span></u></a>.<br />
The Modern Age Aquaman is born as Orin to Queen Atlanna and the mysterious wizard <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlan_(DC_Comics)" title="Atlan (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atlan</span></u></a> in the Atlantean city of Poseidonis, was abandoned on Mercy Reef as a baby because of his blond hair, which was seen by the superstitious Atlanteans as a sign of a curse they called "the Mark of Kordax." The only individual who spoke up on Orin's behalf was Vulko, a scientist who had no patience for myth or superstition. While his pleas were to no avail, Vulko would later become a close friend and advisor to the young Orin.<br />
As a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_child" title="Feral child"><u><span style="color: blue;">feral child</span></u></a> who raised himself in the wilds of the ocean with only sea creatures to keep him company, Orin was found and taken in by a lighthouse keeper named Arthur Curry who named Orin "Arthur Curry" after himself. One day Orin returned home and found that his adoptive father had disappeared, so he set off on his own. In his early teens, Orin ventured to the far north, where he met and fell in love with an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inupiat" title="Inupiat"><u><span style="color: blue;">Inupiat</span></u></a> girl named Kako. He also first earned the hatred of Orm, the future Ocean Master who was later revealed to be Arthur's half-brother by Atlan and an Inupiat woman. Orin was driven away before he could learn that Kako had become pregnant with his son, Koryak.<br />
Orin then returned to the seas mostly staying out of humanity's sight, until he discovered Poseidonis. He was captured by the city's then-dictatorial government and placed in a prison camp, where he met Vulko, also a prisoner of the state, who taught Orin the language and ways of the Atlanteans. While Orin was there he realized that his mother was also being held captive, but after her death he broke out and fled. Eventually, he made his way to the surface world, where under the name of "Aquaman" he became one of several superheroes emerging into the public view at the time. Upon his return to Poseidonis he was made the king, and sometime later he met and married Mera. The Modern Age Aquaman's history is nearly identical to that of the Silver Age Aquaman from this point on.<br />

Shortly afterwards, an alien force conquered Atlantis. Arthur was forced to save the city but was hampered by an escaped Mera who personally blamed Arthur for the death of their son. In a fit of rage, Mera left Aquaman's dimension.<br />
The publication of writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_David" title="Peter David"><u><span style="color: blue;">Peter David</span></u></a>'s <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantis_(DC_Comics)#Atlantis_Chronicles" title="Atlantis (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Atlantis Chronicles</span></u></a></i> #1-7 (Mar-Sep 1990), which told the story of Atlantis from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antediluvian" title="Antediluvian"><u><span style="color: blue;">antediluvian</span></u></a> times to Aquaman's birth, successfully revived interest in the character. Significantly, it was in this limited series that the ancient Atlantean characters Orin (whose name was given as Aquaman's Atlantean name) and Atlan (who was revealed to be Aquaman's father) were introduced.<br />
A new <i>Aquaman</i> ongoing series (#1-13) thereafter ran from December 1991 to December 1992, which portrayed Aquaman reluctantly deciding to remain in Poseidonis as its protector once again. For a time, he served as Atlantis' representative to the United Nations but always found himself thrust back into the superhero role. Becoming more and more of a workaholic and solitary figure, Aquaman eventually returned to the oceans. He soon became tangled up in another attempt by Black Manta to destroy Atlantis by dragging it into a war with a surface nation.<br />
Peter David returned to the character in another limited series, <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i>, a 1993/1994 four-issue series which further explained Aquaman's origins as he finally learned all about the history of his people through the <i>Atlantis Chronicles</i> (presented as historical texts passed down and updated through the centuries). Aquaman learned that his birth name was Orin and that he and his enemy Ocean Master shared the same father, "an ancient Atlantean wizard" called Atlan. This revelation sent Orin into a bout of rage and depression, setting the stage for later confrontations between the two, as it was said that "two brothers will also battle for control of Atlantis" (the Silver Age Aquaman had always known that the Ocean Master was his half-brother Orm, although Orm's amnesia prevented him from remembering that fact for some time).<br />

(Art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Calafiore" title="Jim Calafiore"><u><span style="color: blue;">Jim Calafiore</span></u></a>.</div></div></div>Aquaman received his own series again with the publication of the fifth <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Aug 1994), initially scripted by Peter David, following up on his 1993 <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i> limited series. This new <i>Aquaman</i> series was the longest-running for the character, lasting until its 75th issue. David left the series after issue #46 (Jul 1998) after working on it for nearly four years.<br />
Soon in <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 5) #2 (Sep 1994), Aquaman lost his left hand when the madman <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charybdis_(comics)" title="Charybdis (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Charybdis</span></u></a> stole his ability to communicate with sea life and stuck Arthur's hand into a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha" title="Piranha"><u><span style="color: blue;">piranha</span></u></a>-infested pool. This caused Aquaman to become somewhat unhinged, and he soon began having prophetic dreams. Soon after, he attached a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpoon" title="Harpoon"><u><span style="color: blue;">harpoon</span></u></a> spearhead to his left arm in place of his missing hand. This was the start of an entirely new look: the classic orange shirt was discarded for a gladiatorial <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorica_manica" title="Lorica manica"><u><span style="color: blue;">manica</span></u></a>. Forsaking his former clean-cut appearance, Aquaman grew long hair and a longish beard. After the destruction of the harpoon, Aquaman had it replaced with a cybernetic prosthetic from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.T.A.R._Labs" title="S.T.A.R. Labs"><u><span style="color: blue;">S.T.A.R. Labs</span></u></a>. This new harpoon had a retractable reel that he could fully control.<br />
A major storyline, culminating in #25, concerned the Five Lost Cities of Atlantis. Facing an unearthly invading species linked to the origin of the Atlanteans, Aquaman had to search out and unite the lost cities. This storyline established him as a true Warrior King, and he became a major political power. The remainder of Peter David's run focused on Orin coming to terms with his genetic heritage and his role as a king.<br />
After a brief stint by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Abnett" title="Dan Abnett"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Abnett</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Lanning" title="Andy Lanning"><u><span style="color: blue;">Andy Lanning</span></u></a>, David was replaced as writer by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Larsen" title="Erik Larsen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Erik Larsen</span></u></a> with issue #50 (Dec 1998). Larsen's work proved unpopular with readers, however, and with issue #63 (Jan 2000) he was replaced by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Jurgens" title="Dan Jurgens"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Jurgens</span></u></a>, who saw the series through to its cancellation with issue #75 (Jan 2001).<br />
Aquaman rejoined the JLA when it reformed and remained an active member of that team until the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Worlds_at_War" title="Our Worlds at War"><u><span style="color: blue;">Our Worlds at War</span></u></a></i> event, during which Aquaman and the city of Poseidonis disappeared and were presumed to be destroyed. The JLA later discovered that Poseidonis and its inhabitants were taken into the ancient past by a powerful Atlantean sorceress named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamemnae" title="Gamemnae"><u><span style="color: blue;">Gamemnae</span></u></a>. The people of Poseidonis were made slaves by their Atlantean ancestors, and Aquaman himself was transformed into living water and imprisoned in an ornamental pool.<br />
After a few months of their time — but fully fifteen years for the Atlanteans — the JLA freed Aquaman in "The Obsidian Age" storyline in <i>JLA</i> #66-75 (Jul 2002-Jan 2003), and Poseidonis and its people were returned to the present by the JLA, though not before Aquaman was forced to sink ancient Atlantis.<br />

They knew no violence; Peace and serenity were their way of life. King Thar came into power and ruled from Shayeris, the Idylist capital city. Thar had inherited much of his ancestor's mythic power, and practiced sorcery alongside his brother, Slizzath. The history of Atlantis is fraught with a recurring theme: brother against brother. King Thar was no exception. </div><div class="headerbig">Thar's brother Slizzath thought the power should be his and resented his brother taking it from him. Slizzath was denied his birthright because he dabbled in the black arts by practicing necromancy – the evocation of the dead. He was banished from the Hidden Valley but returned 20 years later with an army of undead soldiers. Fearing his brother's attack, Thar assembled an armory of weapons, specifically designed to stop Slizzath. The Idylists, however, thought Thar was going insane. The peace-loving people revolted, killing their once-beloved king. Fearing the monarchy was tainted by foul violence, the Idylists banished his now-pregnant wife, Berra, who found her way to Atlantis and gave birth to a son - who she named Garth.</div><div class="headerbig">Before Thar died, he was able to use his magics to trap Slizzath in an other-dimensional prison. It was, however, an imperfect imprisonment. Slizzath would be able to manipulate particular spells as a means of escape. Such a spell was Garth's birthright ritual - which he would one day perform to seal his mystical powers. Upon giving birth to Garth, Berra gazed upon his purple eyes - the Idylist mark of power. At that moment, her son's destiny seemed clear: Garth would one day perform the very spell that would free Slizzath. Feeling she had no other choice, Berra left her son to die.</div><table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="2" style="height: 20px; width: 12px;"><tbody>

</tbody></table><b>Meeting Aquaman</b><br />
Miraculously, Garth survived in the ocean depths on his own. As the infant grew into boyhood, he eventually met Atlantis' greatest hero, Aquaman. Befriended by Aquaman, the youth was cured of his fear and became Aqualad, the Sea King's junior partner in crime-fighting. Aqualad possessed abilities which, while not increased by a hybrid metabolism as are Aquaman's, were greater than those of the average Atlantean. Like Aquaman, he could telepathically control and converse with all manner of sea creatures, as well as being able to breathe underwater like all Atlanteans and to swim at fantastic speeds with super-human endurance. Also like his mentor, his sole weakness lay in his inability to remain on land without contact with water for longer than one hour without asphyxiating. <br />
After roaming the ocean depths with Aquaman (while attending school in Scotland by special arrangement), Aqualad returned to Atlantis as a permanent resident when Aquaman married Mera, the queen of an extra-dimensional water-world, and became the new king of Atlantis, and later have a son; which they named Arthur Jr.<br />

</tbody></table>The second meeting of the teen sidekicks was more eventful: Robin,Kid Flash, Aqualad, now joined by Wonder Girl and Speedy, fought against their mentors, who had been possessed by the evil Antithesis. At this second meeting, the five youngsters decided to become a team and the Teen Titans were born! The sidekicks would continue to operate with their mentors, as well as spending time with their peers in the Teen Titans. <br />
Aqualad eventually took an extended leave of absence from the Titans in order to aid Aquaman in a lengthy quest for Mera, who had been abducted by parties unknown, and to care for the royal couple's infant son in their absence. Aqualad was replaced in the group by Speedy. It was about this time that Garth began dating Tula, who was also known as Aquagirl. This began a long relationship that lasted until Tula's tragic death.<br />
In his absence, the Teen Titans had undergone radical changes, becoming the non-costumed, pacifist participants in the special training program run by Mr. Jupiter. Aqualad rejoined the Teen Titans, only to find himself at odds with their new ideologies, under the guidance of Loren Jupiter. He became an occasional member, helping out with a handful of cases. And as he did participate in the group, he was plagued with an undiagnosed sickness, which was actually a manifestation of an inferiority complex. It seemed Garth felt useless to the team, largely in part due to his one hour limitation away from water. Garth officially resigned from the team shortly before they eventually disbanded anyway.<br />

Garth decided to search for the truths behind his family roots. Aqualad barged into a meeting of the Idylist ruling council, demanding information about his parents. The council refused to give Aqualad any information as they feared he may learn the truth. Soon after, Aqualad found a banished Idylist hermit who admitted to killing King Thar. Upon seeing a picture, Aqualad immediately recognized Thar as his father. </div><div class="text">Aqualad broke through security and accessed the ancient files to learn his parents were King Thar and Queen Berra, who ruled peacefully until King Thar went mad and became hungry for war. The Idylist recorded history made no mention of Slizzath's dark magics; When Garth investigated, the Idylist archives only made mention of King Thar's insanity and the Idlysist's subsequent revolt. Garth also believed he was left to die because the superstitious Atlanteans thought his purple eyes were a sign of inferiority. Garth left believing his mother was dead and his father was indeed insane. He would later discover that this information was false.</div><b>Titans Ally & Tragedy Strikes</b><br />

</tbody></table>The next incarnation of the Teen Titans was gathered by Raven, which Aqualad was not to be a part of, although he did assist the team on various cases - including the shattering Crisis on Infinite Earths. During the Crisis, Garth's longtime love Tula was killed. Garth was devastated.<br />
Aqualad remained in Atlantis, and grieved for a long time after the death of Tula. Still, Garth assisted the Titans on various missions. On one such case, Garth was abducted by a then-insane Mento (one of the sons of Black Manta). Mento used his helmet that granted him vast mental powers to inflict psychological torture on Garth. This somehow effected his ability to telepathically control sea life. It did, however, allow him to come to terms with the death of Tula, to some degree.<br />
Garth's marine telepathy would return a short time later, during the 'Millennium/Manhunter' conflict. Following that, Garth remained a close ally of the Titans. When the Titans were attacked and captured by the Wildebeest Society, Garth and Golden Eagle were savagely attacked; Golden Eagle was seemingly slain, and Garth lay in a coma for weeks. Once revived, Aqualad donned a new costume and helped ease the Titans into their next phase under the auspices of the United States government.<br />

Garth began to team up more regularly with Aquaman at this time. As the Aqua-allies tried to stave off an alien invasion, Garth was whisked away by Aquaman's father, Atlan, a mage who existed in another dimension. Atlan told Garth his destiny was to become a powerful mage as well. Atlan trained Garth in his dimension, and taught him how to greatly augment his powers. Garth studied with Atlan for a couple of years, although only a couple of months passed in Aquaman's world. Thus, Garth returned a short time after his disappearance (yet aged a couple of years) with new powers, including the ability to control the temperature of water and fire mystical power blasts from his eyes. Garth was also given a new purpose by Atlan, who told him his destiny was to protect all who live in the ocean.<br />
Upon his return, Garth encountered his uncle - Slizzath - who had transformed himself into a demonic sea creature through dark magic. Slizzath sought to escape his mystical imprisonment using Garth as a conduit. Slizzath created a mystical a doppelganger of Tula, who was created to trap Garth and siphon his new powers. Garth saw through the plan and was able to defeat Slizzath, and once and for all maintain a sense of closure about Tula's death. Garth also adopted a new identity as Tempest. <br />
During this time, Garth also discovered his mother Berra was still alive, and living with a group of Idyllists. This forced Garth to confront his feelings of abandonment by his mother, and mother and son began to take tentative steps toward rebuilding their relationship.<br />

Shortly after this, Garth began a relationship with Dolphin, who was once romantically involved with Aquaman. Initially, Garth and Dolphin concealed their relationship from Aquaman, unsure of what his reaction would be. Eventually, Aquaman learned of their relationship and gave them his blessing.<br />
The Titans later gathered together to save their former member, Victor Stone "Cyborg" (played by Victor Beckles in the movie "Teen Titans"), from alien influence. The original five Titans - including Tempest - decided to re-form the team with five additional recruits. <br />
Dolphin later discovered she was pregnant. Garth was happy at the news and proposed marriage. Garth and Dolphin were married in a traditional Atlantean ceremony with friends and family in attendance. Dolphin has since given birth to a son. Dolphin and Tempest's first child was named Cerdian by Aquaman as a gesture to the surface-country Cerdia, which had recently fallen under Atlantean control.<br />
Meanwhile, Aquaman's long lost son, is trapped in another dimension. But years later, returns to the modern DC Universe, with the help of The Spectre, his memory of his father, and background is altered, and he is brainwashed into becoming the new Aquaman.

The new developments include a new lead character, a new supporting cast, and the inclusion of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword_and_sorcery" title="Sword and sorcery"><u><span style="color: blue;">sword and sorcery</span></u></a>-type fantasy elements in the series.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Fictional_character_biography_2" name="Fictional_character_biography_2"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Fictional character biography</span></h3>While awaiting transport unknown to him, from an alternate universe, called the "Ultraverse" (where the original Aquaman, Green Arrow, & The Flash has been), to present day <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miami" title="Miami"><u><span style="color: blue;">Miami</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida" title="Florida"><u><span style="color: blue;">Florida</span></u></a>, a young man named Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. Is washed out to sea when a storm ruptures the tank he was in. This Arthur Curry, whose origin closely resembles that of the Golden Age Aquaman as well as that of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune_Perkins" title="Neptune Perkins"><u><span style="color: blue;">Neptune Perkins</span></u></a>, is the son of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biology" title="Marine biology"><u><span style="color: blue;">oceanobiologist</span></u></a> Dr. Phillip Curry, (Arthur Curry's third half-brother). Dr. Curry was forced to lie about Arthur Jr.'s true origin by Spectre, for fear of his threat to kill his kidnapped wife and two sons. Dr. Curry, with the help of The Spectre created in Arthur's mind that he had lived his whole life in the main tank of his father's research facility at Avalon Cay, his only window to the outside world being television.<br />
Shortly after his arrival in the sea, Arthur Jr. Is mentally contacted by the mysterious "Dweller of the Depths", a deformed humanoid with tentacles instead of hair and a left hand made of water. The Dweller urges him to help <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Shark" title="King Shark"><u><span style="color: blue;">King Shark</span></u></a>, who still bears scars from a previous battle with The Real Aquaman during the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis" title="Infinite Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">recent Crisis</span></u></a>. The Dweller, confusing Arthur for Aquaman and calling him his "charge", tells Arthur and King Shark of a prophecy regarding Arthur's future, a prophecy which seems to be a distorted version of the original Aquaman's history. The Dweller reveals that the original Aquaman was <i>"transformed into one akin to another dimension, to return to greatness once again in the future."</i><br />
Arthur Jr.'s first trip causes him to meet many of Aquaman's supporting characters including Mera, the Sea Devils, Vulko, and eventually <u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master (the brother of Dr. Phillip Curry and Arthur Curry- the original Aquaman)</span></u>. During this adventure, the Dweller progressively realizes that he himself is the original Aquaman, who slipped out of the pocket universe, The Spectre had him trapped in, despite having no memory of his former life, being married, and having three sons!<br />
Later Arthur Jr. finds a humanoid squid named Topo, a naive youth attracted by superheroics, seeking to become a sidekick, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Tempest</span></u></a>, now the father of a son and twins by his wife, Dolphin, he is unable to breathe water (re-gains all of his powers later) and implanted with a post-hypnotic suggestion warning of an upcoming battle. The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_League" title="Justice League"><u><span style="color: blue;">Justice League</span></u></a> is called in to evaluate Orin's situation, but are unable to determine if he is truly dead, or if he can somehow resurrect himself due to his new magical nature.<br />
In <i>Sword of Atlantis</i> #57, the series' final issue, Aquaman II is visited by the Lady of the Lake who explains his origins. The original Aquaman had given a sample of his water hand to his father in order to resurrect his dead son, Arthur, whom he had named after Orin. When Orin attempted to resurrect Sub Diego, part of his soul attached itself to the body of his son, Arthur Joseph Curry Jr., while Orin's physical form mutated into the Dweller. Blaming himself for Orin's disappearance into the Ultraverse, Aquaman II, vows to never be called "Arthur Jr." again, refraining from using the "stolen" name, asking only to be called Joseph in the future.<br />
Arthur Jr., is considered as a candidate for the new <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outsiders_(comics)" title="Outsiders (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Outsiders</span></u></a> by <u><span style="color: blue;">Batman (secretly knowing that he is in fact, Aquaman's son)</span></u>. After seeing him in action with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamorpho" title="Metamorpho"><u><span style="color: blue;">Metamorpho</span></u></a>, however, Batman decides against his induction.<br />
In their quest to rid the Earth of all forms of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">kryptonite</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman" title="Superman"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superman</span></u></a> and Batman journey deep below the sea and find a large amount of it. The two of them are met with hostility by Aquaman and King Shark. A brief fight ensues, but eventually Joseph allows them to take what they came for. Before doing so, he points out that not everyone may want Superman to find all of Earth's kryptonite, and that he would have to be at least part human to know that.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Powers_and_abilities" name="Powers_and_abilities"></a><br />
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Powers and abilities</span></h2><a href="about:blank" id="Orin" name="Orin"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Orin</span></h3>Aquaman II, has a number of superhuman powers like his father, and superhuman strength, most of which derived from his father, and from the fact that he is adapted to live in the depths of the ocean. Primary among his powers is the ability to extract oxygen from water, allowing him to 'breathe' while submerged. He is unaffected by the immense pressure and the cold temperature of the ocean depths; further, he possesses an enhanced resistance to injury and superhuman strength (he can easily throw a car hundreds of feet). He is likewise able to swim at very high speeds. He can see in near total darkness and has enhanced hearing. Although he can remain underwater indefinitely without suffering any ill effects, Aquaman grows weak if he remains on land for extended periods.<br />
Aquaman II's most famous (or infamous) power is the telepathic ability to communicate with/command oceanic life. The range of this power is unclear; certainly he can summon sea life from vast distances. Although this power is most often and most easily used on marine life, Aquaman II, has on multiple occasions demonstrated the capacity to affect any being evolved from marine life (e.g., humans), or that lives upon the sea (e.g. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_eagle" title="Sea eagle"><u><span style="color: blue;">sea eagles</span></u></a>).<br />
Aquaman II's telepathic abilities are otherwise unrefined but it has been demonstrated on multiple occasions that he can use his abilities to supplement other more skilled telepaths such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian_Manhunter" title="Martian Manhunter"><u><span style="color: blue;">J'onn J'onzz</span></u></a>. He has also demonstrated classic telepathic abilities like telepathic eavesdropping on people's thoughts, but this ability was displayed infrequently.<br />
After the loss of his hand, Aquaman II, initially replaced it with a cybernetic harpoon that responded to his thoughts and could be fired while staying attached via a retractable line. Later, the harpoon was replaced by a magical hand made out of water given to him by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, which grants Aquaman II Numerous abilities, including but not limited to: the ability to dehydrate anyone he touches with it, killing them instantly; to make the hand extremely dense, thus taking Aquaman II, to the ocean floor quickly; to shoot jets of scalding water; healing abilities; and the ability to nullify magic.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Arthur_Joseph" name="Arthur_Joseph"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. (a.k.a "Arthur Jr.")</span></h3>The new Aquaman has many physical abilities in common with his father, the original Aquaman, including underwater breathing, submarine speed, and superhuman strength. Like the Golden Age Aquaman, Arthur Jr. Can't survive outside of water for long. He also gained telepathic powers. He now speaks and understands the languages of the sentient sea peoples unaided, and has a limited ability to communicate with nonsentient sea life. He cannot speak directly to them as his predecessor could, but can send and receive emotional impressions and desires, such as communicating a need for help. He is working to expand the latter ability, and in one instance has been able to "see" through the eyes of nearby fish. In the motion picture; "Aquaman" (2014), Charlie Hunnam, who beat out Brad Pitt for the legendary role, as Arthur Curry a new "Savior" to the rediscovered lost city of Atlantis in Aquaman... This Aquaman, who will be the Golden Age version of the iconic hero, but will have all the flare and saga of "Aquman's Son" Arthur Curry, Jr., (or Arthur Joseph Curry): based on the 2007 comic book series "Aquaman: The Sword of Atlantis", and the "Young Justice" 2011 cartoon series; this movie series will kick butt, and fans are going to really love it!! AQUAMAN the movie trilogy, will bring back to life all of the characters & core heroes of the Aquaman comic book mythos, and revamp the abandoned "Aquaman" comic book title & reboot the series to a whole new level. Redefining & increasing powers of the legends of Aquaman, Aqualad, Mera, and Vulko as irreplaceable heroes in the DC Universe. The Movie saga will inspire fans, and have all the combination themes of other fan favorite movies like: STAR WARS, (the special effects & magical powers of HARRY POTTER), LORD OF THE RINGS, AND TRON: LEGACY, BATMAN & ROBIN, SUPERMAN, AND THE MATRIX TRILOGY....</blockquote><div class="picture-pic picture-pic-1 hover" hover-type="menu" id="n_72-1" s:contextmenu="Shr.Menus.None" s:menuargs="72-1" style="background-color: #f0eeef; border-bottom: #88a942 1px solid; border-left: #88a942 1px solid; border-right: #88a942 1px solid; border-top: #88a942 1px solid; height: 427px; width: 278px;"><div><img height="427px" sid="72" src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procsrserv/47b9dc38b3127cce98548a41d7b300000040000QbMmTdu4asv/cC/rx=278/ry=427/cr=0.0,0.0,1,1" width="278px" /></div></div><br style="clear: both; font-size: 1px;" /><br />

He was also shown to have the ability to communicate with sea-life and have them do his bidding. Initially, he was depicted as speaking to sea creatures "in their own language", and only when they were close enough to hear him rather than being telepathic in nature. While he was often described as the "sovereign of the sea," with the waters of the entire globe his "domain," and almost every sea creature his "loyal subject," the title was never an official one. Aquaman's adventures took place all across the world, and the only base he appeared to have was "an ancient temple of lost Atlantis, kept underwater," in which he kept a solitary throne.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-1" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> There was also a structure called the "Aquacave", a dry series of caves in which he kept the "Atlantis Chronicles", although it is unclear if this is distinct from the ancient temple, or the same location.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-aqua_2-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-aqua-2" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup><br />
During his <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II"><u><span style="color: blue;">wartime</span></u></a> adventures, most of Aquaman's foes were <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism" title="Nazism"><u><span style="color: blue;">Nazi</span></u></a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-boat" title="U-boat"><u><span style="color: blue;">U-boat</span></u></a> commanders and various <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_powers" title="Axis powers"><u><span style="color: blue;">Axis</span></u></a> villains. The rest of his adventures in the 1940s and 1950s had him dealing with various sea-based criminals, including modern-day pirates such as his longtime archenemy Black Jack, as well as various threats to aquatic life, shipping lanes, and sailors.<br />

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Silver Age</span></h3>Starting in 1959, Aquaman's backstory was revised, with various new supporting characters added and several adjustments made to the character, his origins, his powers, and persona.<br />

Due to his heritage, Aquaman discovered as a youth that he possessed various superhuman abilities, including the powers of surviving underwater, communication with sea life, and tremendous swimming prowess. Eventually, Arthur decided to use his talents to become the defender of the Earth's oceans, first starting a career as "Aquaboy" (that also became the name of Aquaman's last son, years later in 2009, after his discovery that his first son; Arthur Jr., whose name was changed to Arthur Joseph Curry, was still alive and protected by The Spectre; was conceived by Mera, after falling in love with him again, and became re-married) and meeting <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kal-El)" title="Superboy (Kal-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> (Earth's only other superpowered hero at the time) on one occasion (<i>Superboy</i> #171, Jan 1971). When Arthur grew up, he called himself "Aquaman".<br />
It was later revealed (in <i>Aquaman</i> #29) that after Atlanna's death, Tom Curry met and married an ordinary human woman and had a son named Orm Curry, Aquaman's half-brother. Orm grew up as a troubled youth in the shadow of his brother (along with Nathan Hayes, a black navy seal, who becomes "Black Manta"), who constantly bailed him out of trouble with the law. He grew to hate Aquaman not only for the powers that he could never possess but also because he knew that their father would always favor Aquaman. Orm disappeared after becoming an amnesiac and would resurface years later as Aquaman's archnemesis, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a>.<br />
By the late 1950s, Aquaman's ability to talk with fish had been expanded to full-fledged telepathic communication with sea creatures even from great distances, but in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #256 (Jan 1959) he was also <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroactive_continuity" title="Retroactive continuity"><u><span style="color: blue;">retroactively</span></u></a> given a specific weakness akin to Superman's vulnerability to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">Kryptonite</span></u></a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Lantern" title="Green Lantern"><u><span style="color: blue;">Green Lantern</span></u></a>'s vulnerability to the color yellow: Aquaman had to come into contact with water at least once per hour, or he would get weak (prior to this story Aquaman could exist both in and out of water indefinitely). This problem was later explained as a characteristic of all Atlanteans. But it doesn't apply to Aquaman anymore, because over the years, he develops new powers and abilities, and discovers that he is involving into a powerful being. More powerful that Superman.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Allies_and_foes" name="Allies_and_foes"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">Allies and foes</span></h4>Aquaman was included in the <i>Justice League of America</i> comic book series, appearing with the team in their very first adventure in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brave_and_the_Bold" title="The Brave and the Bold"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Brave and the Bold</span></u></a></i> #28 (Feb-Mar 1960). He was a founding member of the team, as shown in a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashback" title="Flashback"><u><span style="color: blue;">flashback</span></u></a> in <i>Justice League of America</i> #9 (Feb 1962). Aquaman took part in most of the 1960s adventures of the superhero team.<br />
With <i>Adventure Comics</i> #269 (Feb 1960), Aquaman's supporting cast and rogues gallery began to grow with the addition of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Aqualad</span></u></a>, an outcast, orphaned youth from an Atlantean colony whom Aquaman takes in and begins to mentor. <i>Adventure Comics</i> #264 (Sep 1959) introduced the submerged <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:DC_Comics_cities_and_towns" title="Category:DC Comics cities and towns"><u><span style="color: blue;">fictional city</span></u></a> of New Venice, which was later revealed to be based in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida" title="Florida"><u><span style="color: blue;">Florida</span></u></a> and which also became Aquaman's base of operations for a time in the early 1980s, beginning with <i>World's Finest Comics</i> #263 (Jun-Jul 1980).<br />
Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> until issue #284 (May 1961), when the feature moved to <i>Detective Comics</i> from issues #293-300 (Jul 1961-Feb 1962), then to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #125-139 (May 1962-Feb 1964). After four tryout issues in bi-monthly <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Showcase_(comics)" title="Showcase (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Showcase</span></u></a></i> (#30-33, Feb-Aug 1961), Aquaman gained his own series for the first time with the publication of <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Jan-Feb 1962).<br />
Aquaman eventually met the Atlanteans and became their ally. He was recognized as the son of Atlanna and later voted to be the King after the death of the former regent, who had no heirs. By this time Aquaman had met <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mera_(comics)" title="Mera (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Mera</span></u></a>, a queen from a water-based dimension, and he married her at the same time he was crowned king of Atlantis, <i>Aquaman</i> #18 (Nov-Dec 1964). They soon had a son, Arthur, Jr. (nicknamed "Aquababy") in issue #23 (Sep-Oct 1965).<br />
The 1960s series introduced other such archenemies as the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a> (Aquaman's amnesiac half-brother Orm), <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> (a former Navy Seal, College Professor, and Millionaire-Business Genius, like Lex Luthor), the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisherman_(comics)" title="Fisherman (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Fisherman</span></u></a>, the Scavenger, and the terrorist organization known as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O.G.R.E._(comics)" title="O.G.R.E. (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">O.G.R.E.</span></u></a> Other recurring members of the Aquaman cast introduced in this series include the well-meaning but annoying <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qwsp" title="Qwsp"><u><span style="color: blue;">Quisp</span></u></a> (a water sprite); Dr. Vulko, a trustworthy Atlantean scientist who became Aquaman's royal advisor and whom Aquaman eventually appoints to be king after leaving the throne himself; and Tula (known as "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Tula" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Aquagirl</span></u></a>"), an Atlantean princess who was Aqualad's primary love interest (she died with the secret of baring his first son, Ethan).</div></div><div class="cf-title" style="margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-top: 10px;">Published by <a href="http://community.shutterfly.com/gallery/aboutme/start.sfly?alias=sonofaquamanL&cid=SHARE3SXXXX" target="_blank"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">sonofaquamanL</span></a> at 1:34pm<span class="pipe"><span style="color: #999999;">|</span></span><span class="commentsCount"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">0 Comments</span></span></div><div class="hr divider" style="font-size: 4px;"> </div><div id="n_236"><div class="journalItem"><div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><span class="journalItemHeader"><img class="ti-bullet2 noselect" src="http://www.blogger.com/shr/images/blank/74039724.gif" /><a href="http://legendofaquaman.shutterfly.com/#"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">COPIED & WRITTEN BY MATT CHOINAIRE AND EVAN WADE:</span></a></span></div><div class="journalItemBody"><h4><span class="mw-headline">Back to basics</span></h4><div class="thumb tright"><div class="thumbinner" style="width: 182px;"><a class="image" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet."><img alt="" border="0" class="thumbimage" height="280px" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/ce/Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg/180px-Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" width="180px" /></a> <div class="thumbcaption"><div class="magnify"><a class="internal" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="Enlarge"><span style="background-image: none; border-bottom-color: #0000ff; border-bottom-width: 2px; border-left-color: #0000ff; border-left-width: 2px; border-right-color: #0000ff; border-right-width: 2px; border-top-color: #0000ff; border-top-width: 2px; cursor: hand; display: inline-block; font-size: 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="display: inline-block; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='http://en.wikipedia.org/skins-1.5/common/images/magnify-clip.png'); height: 1px; width: 1px;"></span></span></a></div>2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet.</div></div></div>A sixth <i>Aquaman</i> series began shortly afterwards, initially written by <u><span style="color: blue;">Rick Veitch, Matt Gagston, and Dr. Frank Beckles</span></u> who sought to take Aquaman in a more mystical direction, by bringing back Aquaman's son, Arthur Jr., and re-naming him Arthur Joseph Curry. Subsequent writers who contributed to the series include <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ostrander" title="John Ostrander"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Ostrander</span></u></a>, Will Pfeifer, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Arcudi" title="John Arcudi"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Arcudi</span></u></a>. This series ran from issue #1 (Feb 2003) to #39 (Apr 2006) when it was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> (see below).<br />
As shown in this next series, The original Aquaman returns and his decision to sink ancient Atlantis caused displeasure among some of the city's citizens, and Arthur Jr. Was once again driven out of Poseidonis. He spent some time in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ireland" title="Ireland"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ireland</span></u></a>, where he met the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, who gave him a new prosthetic hand composed of mystical water with unusual properties. From there he returned to his more traditional look: orange shirt, short hair, and beardless.<br />
Later, Aquaman went to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Diego" title="San Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">San Diego</span></u></a> after a massive <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthquake" title="Earthquake"><u><span style="color: blue;">earthquake</span></u></a> plunged half the city into the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean" title="Pacific Ocean"><u><span style="color: blue;">Pacific Ocean</span></u></a>. He soon discovered that the survivors of the catastrophe were able to breathe underwater and began helping them to rebuild the submerged portion of the city they now called "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a>".<br />
During this time, Aquaman picked up a new sidekick named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Lorena_Marquez" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lorena</span></u></a>, who eventually became the new Aquagirl. For a time, it appeared that Aquaman might reconcile with Mera, as he attempted to take her to the surface in order to save her from the Atlantean mages who had transformed her into an air-breather, they fell in love again, and she concieved another son, so one day Aquaman's rightful heir will take his place at the throne.<br />
Shortly thereafter, during the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis" title="Infinite Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Infinite Crisis</span></u></a></i> event, Atlantis was nearly destroyed by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectre_(comics)" title="Spectre (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Spectre</span></u></a>, and many of its citizens were transported to a Pocket Universe, called "The Ultraverse"; where Spectre revealed that his intention was to bring back Aquaman's son, and restore peace and honor to Atlantis, including Aquaman's second son, Koryak and his oldest friend, (and father figure), Vulko. Arthur Joseph Curry (Arthur Jr./Aquaman's son) led the survivors to Sub Diego in the hope that the two displaced peoples could help each other. When <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> attacked the sunken city, Aquaman defeated him and left him for dead, he survived; and joined forces with Lex Luthor to destroy Aquaman & Superman, but Black Manta betrayed him and took LexCorp, and he took Lex's woman, made her his lover, and she bore a son; who will later grow up to replace him, as "Devil Ray" (Justice League: Unlimited) and try again to kill Aquaman and his family and fail, because of Aquaman's increasing powers & abilities (simular to Superman), during the course of his life he is rediscovering his aquatic, mystical, and untapped awesome abilities. To become the true "Savior" and Protector of Atlantis...<br />
Aquaman made a brief appearance at the memorial for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kon-El)" title="Superboy (Kon-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></a></i>. With <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 6) #40 (May 2006), the series was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> and taken in an entirely different direction by writers <u><span style="color: blue;">Kurt Busiek, Matt Choinaire, and Vic "The Iceman" Beckles</span></u>.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="The_Missing_Year" name="The_Missing_Year"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">The Missing Year</span></h4>During week 39 of the "missing year" depicted in the weekly comic book <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><i><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></i></a>, <u><span style="color: blue;">Ralph Dibny</span></u>, seemingly accompanied by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Fate" title="Doctor Fate"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dr. Fate</span></u></a>'s helmet, meets a bearded, long-haired, and amnesic Orin in the ruins of Atlantis. The helmet portends that <i>"if he lives... <b>if</b> he lives... it is as a victim of the magicks of legend and the power of the sea"</i>.<br />
Orin was transformed into the Dweller of the Depths during Week 50 of <i>52</i> in the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_III_(comics)" title="World War III (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">World War III</span></u></a></i> event. In a desperate bid to save the life of several <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a> inhabitants who have lost the ability to live in water, Orin makes a deal with the gods of the sea to gain the power to save them. Using the bones of his severed left hand in a magical ritual, the sea gods give Orin the power to raise Sub Diego onto dry land. However, Orin mutates into the <i>Dweller of the Depths</i> as a side effect of gaining his new abilities and loses his memories as a result. He is presumed dead in <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> #50, and his son Arthur Joseph Curry officially becomes the new Aquaman (for only a brief moment in the DC Universe).<br />
The original Aquaman returns to life in his original costume, without a full explanation, in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Crisis" title="Final Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Final Crisis</span></u></a></i> #7. All that is said is that he and his son (along with Garth & his Son Cerdian) was prophesied to return to Atlantis in his people's hour of greatest need (2010).<br />
<br />
The "Aquaman" movie trilogy, and upcoming Aquaman comic series (2011-Present): Will re-enforce all central concepts profiled on this website, and maintain the true legacy of Aquaman!!!<br />

It's going to focus on the entire Aquaman comic book saga, and have appearances of other DC Heroes & Villians. It should rival, and might beat the Wolverine & Spiderman Franchises.<br />
The original <i>Aquaman</i> series ended with issue #56 (Mar-Apr 1971). Aquaman was given his own feature again in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #435-437, and #441-452, this time as the main feature in most of these issues. The <i>Aquaman</i> series was restarted with issue #57 (Aug-Sep 1977) and ran until issue #63 (Aug-Sep 1978), when it was finally canceled. Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #460-466, when his feature moved to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #262-264, and back to <i>Adventure Comics</i> (for the final time) from issues #475-478. Aquaman appeared in a backup feature in <i>Action Comics</i> which he shared with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_(Ray_Palmer)" title="Atom (Ray Palmer)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atom</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Wave" title="Air Wave"><u><span style="color: blue;">Air Wave</span></u></a> in various issues. Throughout this time Aquaman also appeared in various series (such as <i>Justice League of America</i>, <i>The Brave and the Bold</i>, <i>World's Finest Comics</i>, and <i>DC Comics Presents</i>) in partnership with other superheroes.<br />
After becoming king of Atlantis, Aquaman began a policy of slowly reintroducing the once-secretive Atlantis to the surface world. After he was briefly ousted from the throne by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_(comics)" title="Shark (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Shark</span></u></a> (whom he defeated), he made the decision to leave the throne to become a more traditional superhero, and Dr. Vulko was elected as the new king.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="End_of_an_era" name="End_of_an_era"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">End of an era</span></h4>In the mid-1980s, after his own feature's demise, Aquaman was briefly made the leader of the Justice League of America. In a storyline told in <i>Justice League of America</i> #228-230, an invasion of Earth by a race of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian" title="Martian"><u><span style="color: blue;">Martians</span></u></a> occurred at a time when the core members were missing. Aquaman was thus forced to defend Earth with a League much-depleted in power and capability, and he took it upon himself to disband the Justice League altogether in <i>Justice League of America Annual</i> #2 (1984), thereafter reforming it with new bylaws requiring members to give full participation to the League's cases. With the help of a small number of veteran Justice League members willing to fully commit to the team, Aquaman recruited and trained four new and untried members, also relocating the team's headquarters to a reinforced bunker in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit" title="Detroit"><u><span style="color: blue;">Detroit</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan" title="Michigan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Michigan</span></u></a> after the destruction of the JLA's satellite headquarters during the invasion.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-jlah_4-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-jlah-4" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> Aquaman's participation in this new version of the Justice League ended in #243 (Oct 1985), when he resigned to work on his marriage with Mera. Subsequently, two of the four new recruits (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibe_(comics)" title="Vibe (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Vibe</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commander_Steel#Hank_Heywood_III" title="Commander Steel"><u><span style="color: blue;">Steel</span></u></a>) were killed in action.<br />

The series was well received and a follow up limited series was in the works, though it was eventually canceled due to creative problems.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-5" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> This series also expanded on several details of the Silver Age Aquaman's origin as well as Aquaman's relationship with his half-brother, Ocean Master, whose origin was retold in more complete detail. The series also added mystical elements to Aquaman's mythology and reinvented Ocean Master as a sorcerer. Aquaman reappeared in his blue costume in the <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 (1988).<br />

<h4><span class="mw-headline">Retelling origins</span></h4>In 1989, the <i>Legend of Aquaman Special</i> (officially titled as <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 in the comic's legal indicia, the second <i>Special</i> in back-to-back years) rewrote Aquaman's mythos and origin, though keeping most of his Silver Age history intact. The special was by writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Loren_Fleming" title="Robert Loren Fleming"><u><span style="color: blue;">Robert Loren Fleming</span></u></a>, with plots/breakdown art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Giffen" title="Keith Giffen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Keith Giffen</span></u></a> and full pencil art by artist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curt_Swan" title="Curt Swan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Curt Swan</span></u></a>.<br />
The Modern Age Aquaman is born as Orin to Queen Atlanna and the mysterious wizard <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlan_(DC_Comics)" title="Atlan (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atlan</span></u></a> in the Atlantean city of Poseidonis, was abandoned on Mercy Reef as a baby because of his blond hair, which was seen by the superstitious Atlanteans as a sign of a curse they called "the Mark of Kordax." The only individual who spoke up on Orin's behalf was Vulko, a scientist who had no patience for myth or superstition. While his pleas were to no avail, Vulko would later become a close friend and advisor to the young Orin.<br />
As a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_child" title="Feral child"><u><span style="color: blue;">feral child</span></u></a> who raised himself in the wilds of the ocean with only sea creatures to keep him company, Orin was found and taken in by a lighthouse keeper named Arthur Curry who named Orin "Arthur Curry" after himself. One day Orin returned home and found that his adoptive father had disappeared, so he set off on his own. In his early teens, Orin ventured to the far north, where he met and fell in love with an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inupiat" title="Inupiat"><u><span style="color: blue;">Inupiat</span></u></a> girl named Kako. He also first earned the hatred of Orm, the future Ocean Master who was later revealed to be Arthur's half-brother by Atlan and an Inupiat woman. Orin was driven away before he could learn that Kako had become pregnant with his son, Koryak.<br />
Orin then returned to the seas mostly staying out of humanity's sight, until he discovered Poseidonis. He was captured by the city's then-dictatorial government and placed in a prison camp, where he met Vulko, also a prisoner of the state, who taught Orin the language and ways of the Atlanteans. While Orin was there he realized that his mother was also being held captive, but after her death he broke out and fled. Eventually, he made his way to the surface world, where under the name of "Aquaman" he became one of several superheroes emerging into the public view at the time. Upon his return to Poseidonis he was made the king, and sometime later he met and married Mera. The Modern Age Aquaman's history is nearly identical to that of the Silver Age Aquaman from this point on.<br />

Shortly afterwards, an alien force conquered Atlantis. Arthur was forced to save the city but was hampered by an escaped Mera who personally blamed Arthur for the death of their son. In a fit of rage, Mera left Aquaman's dimension.<br />
The publication of writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_David" title="Peter David"><u><span style="color: blue;">Peter David</span></u></a>'s <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantis_(DC_Comics)#Atlantis_Chronicles" title="Atlantis (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Atlantis Chronicles</span></u></a></i> #1-7 (Mar-Sep 1990), which told the story of Atlantis from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antediluvian" title="Antediluvian"><u><span style="color: blue;">antediluvian</span></u></a> times to Aquaman's birth, successfully revived interest in the character. Significantly, it was in this limited series that the ancient Atlantean characters Orin (whose name was given as Aquaman's Atlantean name) and Atlan (who was revealed to be Aquaman's father) were introduced.<br />
A new <i>Aquaman</i> ongoing series (#1-13) thereafter ran from December 1991 to December 1992, which portrayed Aquaman reluctantly deciding to remain in Poseidonis as its protector once again. For a time, he served as Atlantis' representative to the United Nations but always found himself thrust back into the superhero role. Becoming more and more of a workaholic and solitary figure, Aquaman eventually returned to the oceans. He soon became tangled up in another attempt by Black Manta to destroy Atlantis by dragging it into a war with a surface nation.<br />
Peter David returned to the character in another limited series, <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i>, a 1993/1994 four-issue series which further explained Aquaman's origins as he finally learned all about the history of his people through the <i>Atlantis Chronicles</i> (presented as historical texts passed down and updated through the centuries). Aquaman learned that his birth name was Orin and that he and his enemy Ocean Master shared the same father, "an ancient Atlantean wizard" called Atlan. This revelation sent Orin into a bout of rage and depression, setting the stage for later confrontations between the two, as it was said that "two brothers will also battle for control of Atlantis" (the Silver Age Aquaman had always known that the Ocean Master was his half-brother Orm, although Orm's amnesia prevented him from remembering that fact for some time).<br />

(Art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Calafiore" title="Jim Calafiore"><u><span style="color: blue;">Jim Calafiore</span></u></a>.</div></div></div>Aquaman received his own series again with the publication of the fifth <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Aug 1994), initially scripted by Peter David, following up on his 1993 <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i> limited series. This new <i>Aquaman</i> series was the longest-running for the character, lasting until its 75th issue. David left the series after issue #46 (Jul 1998) after working on it for nearly four years.<br />
Soon in <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 5) #2 (Sep 1994), Aquaman lost his left hand when the madman <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charybdis_(comics)" title="Charybdis (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Charybdis</span></u></a> stole his ability to communicate with sea life and stuck Arthur's hand into a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha" title="Piranha"><u><span style="color: blue;">piranha</span></u></a>-infested pool. This caused Aquaman to become somewhat unhinged, and he soon began having prophetic dreams. Soon after, he attached a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpoon" title="Harpoon"><u><span style="color: blue;">harpoon</span></u></a> spearhead to his left arm in place of his missing hand. This was the start of an entirely new look: the classic orange shirt was discarded for a gladiatorial <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorica_manica" title="Lorica manica"><u><span style="color: blue;">manica</span></u></a>. Forsaking his former clean-cut appearance, Aquaman grew long hair and a longish beard. After the destruction of the harpoon, Aquaman had it replaced with a cybernetic prosthetic from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.T.A.R._Labs" title="S.T.A.R. Labs"><u><span style="color: blue;">S.T.A.R. Labs</span></u></a>. This new harpoon had a retractable reel that he could fully control.<br />
A major storyline, culminating in #25, concerned the Five Lost Cities of Atlantis. Facing an unearthly invading species linked to the origin of the Atlanteans, Aquaman had to search out and unite the lost cities. This storyline established him as a true Warrior King, and he became a major political power. The remainder of Peter David's run focused on Orin coming to terms with his genetic heritage and his role as a king.<br />
After a brief stint by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Abnett" title="Dan Abnett"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Abnett</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Lanning" title="Andy Lanning"><u><span style="color: blue;">Andy Lanning</span></u></a>, David was replaced as writer by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Larsen" title="Erik Larsen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Erik Larsen</span></u></a> with issue #50 (Dec 1998). Larsen's work proved unpopular with readers, however, and with issue #63 (Jan 2000) he was replaced by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Jurgens" title="Dan Jurgens"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Jurgens</span></u></a>, who saw the series through to its cancellation with issue #75 (Jan 2001).<br />
Aquaman rejoined the JLA when it reformed and remained an active member of that team until the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Worlds_at_War" title="Our Worlds at War"><u><span style="color: blue;">Our Worlds at War</span></u></a></i> event, during which Aquaman and the city of Poseidonis disappeared and were presumed to be destroyed. The JLA later discovered that Poseidonis and its inhabitants were taken into the ancient past by a powerful Atlantean sorceress named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamemnae" title="Gamemnae"><u><span style="color: blue;">Gamemnae</span></u></a>. The people of Poseidonis were made slaves by their Atlantean ancestors, and Aquaman himself was transformed into living water and imprisoned in an ornamental pool.<br />
After a few months of their time — but fully fifteen years for the Atlanteans — the JLA freed Aquaman in "The Obsidian Age" storyline in <i>JLA</i> #66-75 (Jul 2002-Jan 2003), and Poseidonis and its people were returned to the present by the JLA, though not before Aquaman was forced to sink ancient Atlantis.<br />

The <strong>Warner Bros Animation</strong> project follows a group of teens who are the sons & daughters of superheroes that struggle with growing up while proving themselves to be Justice League material.<br />
“<strong><em>Young Justice</em></strong>” features (new sidekicks/not the origial ones but children of Super Heroes) Robin (Damian Wayne- Son of Batman and Talia Al Ghul), Superboy (Son of Superman & Wonder Woman), Artemis (formerly Arrowette- the bastard daughter of Green Arrow), Connor Hawke (Son of Green Lantern/John Stewart), Kid Flash (Son of Barry Allen/The Flash), Jai/Impulse II (Son of Wally West/The Flash III) Miss Martian, and Aquaman II/Joseph Arthur Curry (One of the many Sons of Aquaman), and The New Aqualad (The Son of Black Manta).

</tbody></table><div class="headerbig"><b>Royal Beginnings</b></div><div class="headerbig">The Idylists were a group of pacifists living in self-exile from Atlantis in the Hidden Valley for over 4,000 years. They knew no violence; Peace and serenity were their way of life. King Thar came into power and ruled from Shayeris, the Idylist capital city. Thar had inherited much of his ancestor's mythic power, and practiced sorcery alongside his brother, Slizzath. The history of Atlantis is fraught with a recurring theme: brother against brother. King Thar was no exception. </div><div class="headerbig">Thar's brother Slizzath thought the power should be his and resented his brother taking it from him. Slizzath was denied his birthright because he dabbled in the black arts by practicing necromancy – the evocation of the dead. He was banished from the Hidden Valley but returned 20 years later with an army of undead soldiers. Fearing his brother's attack, Thar assembled an armory of weapons, specifically designed to stop Slizzath. The Idylists, however, thought Thar was going insane. The peace-loving people revolted, killing their once-beloved king. Fearing the monarchy was tainted by foul violence, the Idylists banished his now-pregnant wife, Berra, who found her way to Atlantis and gave birth to a son - who she named Garth.</div><div class="headerbig">Before Thar died, he was able to use his magics to trap Slizzath in an other-dimensional prison. It was, however, an imperfect imprisonment. Slizzath would be able to manipulate particular spells as a means of escape. Such a spell was Garth's birthright ritual - which he would one day perform to seal his mystical powers. Upon giving birth to Garth, Berra gazed upon his purple eyes - the Idylist mark of power. At that moment, her son's destiny seemed clear: Garth would one day perform the very spell that would free Slizzath. Feeling she had no other choice, Berra left her son to die.</div><table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="2" style="height: 20px; width: 12px;"><tbody>

</tbody></table><b>Meeting Aquaman</b><br />
Miraculously, Garth survived in the ocean depths on his own. As the infant grew into boyhood, he eventually met Atlantis' greatest hero, Aquaman. Befriended by Aquaman, the youth was cured of his fear and became Aqualad, the Sea King's junior partner in crime-fighting. Aqualad possessed abilities which, while not increased by a hybrid metabolism as are Aquaman's, were greater than those of the average Atlantean. Like Aquaman, he could telepathically control and converse with all manner of sea creatures, as well as being able to breathe underwater like all Atlanteans and to swim at fantastic speeds with super-human endurance. Also like his mentor, his sole weakness lay in his inability to remain on land without contact with water for longer than one hour without asphyxiating. <br />
After roaming the ocean depths with Aquaman (while attending school in Scotland by special arrangement), Aqualad returned to Atlantis as a permanent resident when Aquaman married Mera, the queen of an extra-dimensional water-world, and became the new king of Atlantis, and later have a son; which they named Arthur Jr.<br />

</tbody></table>The second meeting of the teen sidekicks was more eventful: Robin,Kid Flash, Aqualad, now joined by Wonder Girl and Speedy, fought against their mentors, who had been possessed by the evil Antithesis. At this second meeting, the five youngsters decided to become a team and the Teen Titans were born! The sidekicks would continue to operate with their mentors, as well as spending time with their peers in the Teen Titans. <br />
Aqualad eventually took an extended leave of absence from the Titans in order to aid Aquaman in a lengthy quest for Mera, who had been abducted by parties unknown, and to care for the royal couple's infant son in their absence. Aqualad was replaced in the group by Speedy. It was about this time that Garth began dating Tula, who was also known as Aquagirl. This began a long relationship that lasted until Tula's tragic death.<br />
In his absence, the Teen Titans had undergone radical changes, becoming the non-costumed, pacifist participants in the special training program run by Mr. Jupiter. Aqualad rejoined the Teen Titans, only to find himself at odds with their new ideologies, under the guidance of Loren Jupiter. He became an occasional member, helping out with a handful of cases. And as he did participate in the group, he was plagued with an undiagnosed sickness, which was actually a manifestation of an inferiority complex. It seemed Garth felt useless to the team, largely in part due to his one hour limitation away from water. Garth officially resigned from the team shortly before they eventually disbanded anyway.<br />

Garth decided to search for the truths behind his family roots. Aqualad barged into a meeting of the Idylist ruling council, demanding information about his parents. The council refused to give Aqualad any information as they feared he may learn the truth. Soon after, Aqualad found a banished Idylist hermit who admitted to killing King Thar. Upon seeing a picture, Aqualad immediately recognized Thar as his father. </div><div class="text">Aqualad broke through security and accessed the ancient files to learn his parents were King Thar and Queen Berra, who ruled peacefully until King Thar went mad and became hungry for war. The Idylist recorded history made no mention of Slizzath's dark magics; When Garth investigated, the Idylist archives only made mention of King Thar's insanity and the Idlysist's subsequent revolt. Garth also believed he was left to die because the superstitious Atlanteans thought his purple eyes were a sign of inferiority.

</tbody></table>The next incarnation of the Teen Titans was gathered by Raven, which Aqualad was not to be a part of, although he did assist the team on various cases - including the shattering Crisis on Infinite Earths. During the Crisis, Garth's longtime love Tula was killed. Garth was devastated.<br />
Aqualad remained in Atlantis, and grieved for a long time after the death of Tula. Still, Garth assisted the Titans on various missions. On one such case, Garth was abducted by a then-insane Mento (one of the sons of Black Manta). Mento used his helmet that granted him vast mental powers to inflict psychological torture on Garth. This somehow effected his ability to telepathically control sea life. It did, however, allow him to come to terms with the death of Tula, to some degree.<br />
Garth's marine telepathy would return a short time later, during the 'Millennium/Manhunter' conflict. Following that, Garth remained a close ally of the Titans. When the Titans were attacked and captured by the Wildebeest Society, Garth and Golden Eagle were savagely attacked; Golden Eagle was seemingly slain, and Garth lay in a coma for weeks. Once revived, Aqualad donned a new costume and helped ease the Titans into their next phase under the auspices of the United States government.<br />

Garth began to team up more regularly with Aquaman at this time. As the Aqua-allies tried to stave off an alien invasion, Garth was whisked away by Aquaman's father, Atlan, a mage who existed in another dimension. Atlan told Garth his destiny was to become a powerful mage as well. Atlan trained Garth in his dimension, and taught him how to greatly augment his powers. Garth studied with Atlan for a couple of years, although only a couple of months passed in Aquaman's world. Thus, Garth returned a short time after his disappearance (yet aged a couple of years) with new powers, including the ability to control the temperature of water and fire mystical power blasts from his eyes. Garth was also given a new purpose by Atlan, who told him his destiny was to protect all who live in the ocean.<br />
Upon his return, Garth encountered his uncle - Slizzath - who had transformed himself into a demonic sea creature through dark magic. Slizzath sought to escape his mystical imprisonment using Garth as a conduit. Slizzath created a mystical a doppelganger of Tula, who was created to trap Garth and siphon his new powers. Garth saw through the plan and was able to defeat Slizzath, and once and for all maintain a sense of closure about Tula's death. Garth also adopted a new identity as Tempest. <br />
During this time, Garth also discovered his mother Berra was still alive, and living with a group of Idyllists. This forced Garth to confront his feelings of abandonment by his mother, and mother and son began to take tentative steps toward rebuilding their relationship.<br />

Shortly after this, Garth began a relationship with Dolphin, who was once romantically involved with Aquaman. Initially, Garth and Dolphin concealed their relationship from Aquaman, unsure of what his reaction would be. Eventually, Aquaman learned of their relationship and gave them his blessing.<br />
The Titans later gathered together to save their former member, Victor Stone "Cyborg" (played by Victor Beckles in the movie "Teen Titans"), from alien influence. The original five Titans - including Tempest - decided to re-form the team with five additional recruits. <br />
Dolphin later discovered she was pregnant. Garth was happy at the news and proposed marriage. Garth and Dolphin were married in a traditional Atlantean ceremony with friends and family in attendance. Dolphin has since given birth to a son. Dolphin and Tempest's first child was named Cerdian by Aquaman as a gesture to the surface-country Cerdia, which had recently fallen under Atlantean control.<br />
Meanwhile, Aquaman's long lost son, is trapped in another dimension. But years later, returns to the modern DC Universe, with the help of The Spectre, his memory of his father, and background is altered, and he is brainwashed into becoming the new Aquaman.

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Publication history</span></h3>As part of DC Comics' <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Year_Later" title="One Year Later"><u><span style="color: blue;">One Year Later</span></u></a></i> event, Aquaman's series was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> with issue #40 (May 2006). The new developments include a new lead character, a new supporting cast, and the inclusion of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword_and_sorcery" title="Sword and sorcery"><u><span style="color: blue;">sword and sorcery</span></u></a>-type fantasy elements in the series.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Fictional_character_biography_2" name="Fictional_character_biography_2"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Fictional character biography</span></h3>While awaiting transport unknown to him, from an alternate universe, called the "Ultraverse" (where the original Aquaman, Green Arrow, & The Flash has been), to present day <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miami" title="Miami"><u><span style="color: blue;">Miami</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida" title="Florida"><u><span style="color: blue;">Florida</span></u></a>, a young man named Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. Is washed out to sea when a storm ruptures the tank he was in. This Arthur Curry, whose origin closely resembles that of the Golden Age Aquaman as well as that of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune_Perkins" title="Neptune Perkins"><u><span style="color: blue;">Neptune Perkins</span></u></a>, is the son of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biology" title="Marine biology"><u><span style="color: blue;">oceanobiologist</span></u></a> Dr. Phillip Curry, (Arthur Curry's third half-brother). Dr. Curry was forced to lie about Arthur Jr.'s true origin by Spectre, for fear of his threat to kill his kidnapped wife and two sons. Dr. Curry, with the help of The Spectre created in Arthur's mind that he had lived his whole life in the main tank of his father's research facility at Avalon Cay, his only window to the outside world being television.<br />
Shortly after his arrival in the sea, Arthur Jr. Is mentally contacted by the mysterious "Dweller of the Depths", a deformed humanoid with tentacles instead of hair and a left hand made of water. The Dweller urges him to help <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Shark" title="King Shark"><u><span style="color: blue;">King Shark</span></u></a>, who still bears scars from a previous battle with The Real Aquaman during the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis" title="Infinite Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">recent Crisis</span></u></a>. The Dweller, confusing Arthur for Aquaman and calling him his "charge", tells Arthur and King Shark of a prophecy regarding Arthur's future, a prophecy which seems to be a distorted version of the original Aquaman's history. The Dweller reveals that the original Aquaman was <i>"transformed into one akin to another dimension, to return to greatness once again in the future."</i><br />
Arthur Jr.'s first trip causes him to meet many of Aquaman's supporting characters including Mera, the Sea Devils, Vulko, and eventually <u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master (the brother of Dr. Phillip Curry and Arthur Curry- the original Aquaman)</span></u>. During this adventure, the Dweller progressively realizes that he himself is the original Aquaman, who slipped out of the pocket universe, The Spectre had him trapped in, despite having no memory of his former life, being married, and having three sons!<br />
Later Arthur Jr. finds a humanoid squid named Topo, a naive youth attracted by superheroics, seeking to become a sidekick, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Tempest</span></u></a>, now the father of a son and twins by his wife, Dolphin, he is unable to breathe water (re-gains all of his powers later) and implanted with a post-hypnotic suggestion warning of an upcoming battle. The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_League" title="Justice League"><u><span style="color: blue;">Justice League</span></u></a> is called in to evaluate Orin's situation, but are unable to determine if he is truly dead, or if he can somehow resurrect himself due to his new magical nature.<br />
In <i>Sword of Atlantis</i> #57, the series' final issue, Aquaman II is visited by the Lady of the Lake who explains his origins. The original Aquaman had given a sample of his water hand to his father in order to resurrect his dead son, Arthur, whom he had named after Orin. When Orin attempted to resurrect Sub Diego, part of his soul attached itself to the body of his son, Arthur Joseph Curry Jr., while Orin's physical form mutated into the Dweller. Blaming himself for Orin's disappearance into the Ultraverse, Aquaman II, vows to never be called "Arthur Jr." again, refraining from using the "stolen" name, asking only to be called Joseph in the future.<br />
Arthur Jr., is considered as a candidate for the new <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outsiders_(comics)" title="Outsiders (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Outsiders</span></u></a> by <u><span style="color: blue;">Batman (secretly knowing that he is in fact, Aquaman's son)</span></u>. After seeing him in action with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamorpho" title="Metamorpho"><u><span style="color: blue;">Metamorpho</span></u></a>, however, Batman decides against his induction.<br />
In their quest to rid the Earth of all forms of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">kryptonite</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman" title="Superman"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superman</span></u></a> and Batman journey deep below the sea and find a large amount of it. The two of them are met with hostility by Aquaman and King Shark. A brief fight ensues, but eventually Joseph allows them to take what they came for. Before doing so, he points out that not everyone may want Superman to find all of Earth's kryptonite, and that he would have to be at least part human to know that.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Powers_and_abilities" name="Powers_and_abilities"></a><br />
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Powers and abilities</span></h2><a href="about:blank" id="Orin" name="Orin"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Orin</span></h3>Aquaman II, has a number of superhuman powers like his father, and superhuman strength, most of which derived from his father, and from the fact that he is adapted to live in the depths of the ocean. Primary among his powers is the ability to extract oxygen from water, allowing him to 'breathe' while submerged. He is unaffected by the immense pressure and the cold temperature of the ocean depths; further, he possesses an enhanced resistance to injury and superhuman strength (he can easily throw a car hundreds of feet). He is likewise able to swim at very high speeds. He can see in near total darkness and has enhanced hearing. Although he can remain underwater indefinitely without suffering any ill effects, Aquaman grows weak if he remains on land for extended periods.<br />
Aquaman II's most famous (or infamous) power is the telepathic ability to communicate with/command oceanic life. The range of this power is unclear; certainly he can summon sea life from vast distances. Although this power is most often and most easily used on marine life, Aquaman II, has on multiple occasions demonstrated the capacity to affect any being evolved from marine life (e.g., humans), or that lives upon the sea (e.g. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_eagle" title="Sea eagle"><u><span style="color: blue;">sea eagles</span></u></a>).<br />
Aquaman II's telepathic abilities are otherwise unrefined but it has been demonstrated on multiple occasions that he can use his abilities to supplement other more skilled telepaths such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian_Manhunter" title="Martian Manhunter"><u><span style="color: blue;">J'onn J'onzz</span></u></a>. He has also demonstrated classic telepathic abilities like telepathic eavesdropping on people's thoughts, but this ability was displayed infrequently.<br />
After the loss of his hand, Aquaman II, initially replaced it with a cybernetic harpoon that responded to his thoughts and could be fired while staying attached via a retractable line. Later, the harpoon was replaced by a magical hand made out of water given to him by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, which grants Aquaman II Numerous abilities, including but not limited to: the ability to dehydrate anyone he touches with it, killing them instantly; to make the hand extremely dense, thus taking Aquaman II, to the ocean floor quickly; to shoot jets of scalding water; healing abilities; and the ability to nullify magic.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Arthur_Joseph" name="Arthur_Joseph"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. (a.k.a "Arthur Jr.")</span></h3>The new Aquaman has many physical abilities in common with his father, the original Aquaman, including underwater breathing, submarine speed, and superhuman strength. Like the Golden Age Aquaman, Arthur Jr. Can't survive outside of water for long. He also gained telepathic powers. He now speaks and understands the languages of the sentient sea peoples unaided, and has a limited ability to communicate with nonsentient sea life. He cannot speak directly to them as his predecessor could, but can send and receive emotional impressions and desires, such as communicating a need for help. He is working to expand the latter ability, and in one instance has been able to "see" through the eyes of nearby fish. In the motion picture; "Aquaman" (2014), Charlie Hunnam, who beat out Brad Pitt for the legendary role, as Arthur Curry a new "Savior" to the rediscovered lost city of Atlantis in Aquaman... This Aquaman, who will be the Golden Age version of the iconic hero, but will have all the flare and saga of "Aquman's Son" Arthur Curry, Jr., (or Arthur Joseph Curry): based on the 2007 comic book series "Aquaman: The Sword of Atlantis", and the "Young Justice" 2011 cartoon series; this movie series will kick butt, and fans are going to really love it!! AQUAMAN the movie trilogy, will bring back to life all of the characters & core heroes of the Aquaman comic book mythos, and revamp the abandoned "Aquaman" comic book title & reboot the series to a whole new level. Redefining & increasing powers of the legends of Aquaman, Aqualad, Mera, and Vulko as irreplaceable heroes in the DC Universe. The Movie saga will inspire fans, and have all the combination themes of other fan favorite movies like: STAR WARS, (the special effects & magical powers of HARRY POTTER), LORD OF THE RINGS, AND TRON: LEGACY, BATMAN & ROBIN, SUPERMAN, AND THE MATRIX TRILOGY....</blockquote><div class="picture-pic picture-pic-1 hover" hover-type="menu" id="n_72-1" s:contextmenu="Shr.Menus.None" s:menuargs="72-1" style="background-color: #f0eeef; border-bottom: #88a942 1px solid; border-left: #88a942 1px solid; border-right: #88a942 1px solid; border-top: #88a942 1px solid; height: 427px; width: 278px;"><div><img height="427px" sid="72" src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procsrserv/47b9dc38b3127cce98548a41d7b300000040000QbMmTdu4asv/cC/rx=278/ry=427/cr=0.0,0.0,1,1" width="278px" /></div></div><br style="clear: both; font-size: 1px;" /><br />

He was also shown to have the ability to communicate with sea-life and have them do his bidding. Initially, he was depicted as speaking to sea creatures "in their own language", and only when they were close enough to hear him rather than being telepathic in nature. While he was often described as the "sovereign of the sea," with the waters of the entire globe his "domain," and almost every sea creature his "loyal subject," the title was never an official one. Aquaman's adventures took place all across the world, and the only base he appeared to have was "an ancient temple of lost Atlantis, kept underwater," in which he kept a solitary throne.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-1" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> There was also a structure called the "Aquacave", a dry series of caves in which he kept the "Atlantis Chronicles", although it is unclear if this is distinct from the ancient temple, or the same location.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-aqua_2-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-aqua-2" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup><br />
During his <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II"><u><span style="color: blue;">wartime</span></u></a> adventures, most of Aquaman's foes were <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism" title="Nazism"><u><span style="color: blue;">Nazi</span></u></a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-boat" title="U-boat"><u><span style="color: blue;">U-boat</span></u></a> commanders and various <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_powers" title="Axis powers"><u><span style="color: blue;">Axis</span></u></a> villains. The rest of his adventures in the 1940s and 1950s had him dealing with various sea-based criminals, including modern-day pirates such as his longtime archenemy Black Jack, as well as various threats to aquatic life, shipping lanes, and sailors.<br />

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Silver Age</span></h3>Starting in 1959, Aquaman's backstory was revised, with various new supporting characters added and several adjustments made to the character, his origins, his powers, and persona.<br />

Due to his heritage, Aquaman discovered as a youth that he possessed various superhuman abilities, including the powers of surviving underwater, communication with sea life, and tremendous swimming prowess. Eventually, Arthur decided to use his talents to become the defender of the Earth's oceans, first starting a career as "Aquaboy" (that also became the name of Aquaman's last son, years later in 2009, after his discovery that his first son; Arthur Jr., whose name was changed to Arthur Joseph Curry, was still alive and protected by The Spectre; was conceived by Mera, after falling in love with him again, and became re-married) and meeting <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kal-El)" title="Superboy (Kal-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> (Earth's only other superpowered hero at the time) on one occasion (<i>Superboy</i> #171, Jan 1971). When Arthur grew up, he called himself "Aquaman".<br />
It was later revealed (in <i>Aquaman</i> #29) that after Atlanna's death, Tom Curry met and married an ordinary human woman and had a son named Orm Curry, Aquaman's half-brother. Orm grew up as a troubled youth in the shadow of his brother (along with Nathan Hayes, a black navy seal, who becomes "Black Manta"), who constantly bailed him out of trouble with the law. He grew to hate Aquaman not only for the powers that he could never possess but also because he knew that their father would always favor Aquaman. Orm disappeared after becoming an amnesiac and would resurface years later as Aquaman's archnemesis, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a>.<br />
By the late 1950s, Aquaman's ability to talk with fish had been expanded to full-fledged telepathic communication with sea creatures even from great distances, but in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #256 (Jan 1959) he was also <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroactive_continuity" title="Retroactive continuity"><u><span style="color: blue;">retroactively</span></u></a> given a specific weakness akin to Superman's vulnerability to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">Kryptonite</span></u></a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Lantern" title="Green Lantern"><u><span style="color: blue;">Green Lantern</span></u></a>'s vulnerability to the color yellow: Aquaman had to come into contact with water at least once per hour, or he would get weak (prior to this story Aquaman could exist both in and out of water indefinitely). This problem was later explained as a characteristic of all Atlanteans. But it doesn't apply to Aquaman anymore, because over the years, he develops new powers and abilities, and discovers that he is involving into a powerful being. More powerful that Superman.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Allies_and_foes" name="Allies_and_foes"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">Allies and foes</span></h4>Aquaman was included in the <i>Justice League of America</i> comic book series, appearing with the team in their very first adventure in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brave_and_the_Bold" title="The Brave and the Bold"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Brave and the Bold</span></u></a></i> #28 (Feb-Mar 1960). He was a founding member of the team, as shown in a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashback" title="Flashback"><u><span style="color: blue;">flashback</span></u></a> in <i>Justice League of America</i> #9 (Feb 1962). Aquaman took part in most of the 1960s adventures of the superhero team.<br />
With <i>Adventure Comics</i> #269 (Feb 1960), Aquaman's supporting cast and rogues gallery began to grow with the addition of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Aqualad</span></u></a>, an outcast, orphaned youth from an Atlantean colony whom Aquaman takes in and begins to mentor. <i>Adventure Comics</i> #264 (Sep 1959) introduced the submerged <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:DC_Comics_cities_and_towns" title="Category:DC Comics cities and towns"><u><span style="color: blue;">fictional city</span></u></a> of New Venice, which was later revealed to be based in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida" title="Florida"><u><span style="color: blue;">Florida</span></u></a> and which also became Aquaman's base of operations for a time in the early 1980s, beginning with <i>World's Finest Comics</i> #263 (Jun-Jul 1980).<br />
Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> until issue #284 (May 1961), when the feature moved to <i>Detective Comics</i> from issues #293-300 (Jul 1961-Feb 1962), then to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #125-139 (May 1962-Feb 1964). After four tryout issues in bi-monthly <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Showcase_(comics)" title="Showcase (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Showcase</span></u></a></i> (#30-33, Feb-Aug 1961), Aquaman gained his own series for the first time with the publication of <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Jan-Feb 1962).<br />
Aquaman eventually met the Atlanteans and became their ally. He was recognized as the son of Atlanna and later voted to be the King after the death of the former regent, who had no heirs. By this time Aquaman had met <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mera_(comics)" title="Mera (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Mera</span></u></a>, a queen from a water-based dimension, and he married her at the same time he was crowned king of Atlantis, <i>Aquaman</i> #18 (Nov-Dec 1964). They soon had a son, Arthur, Jr. (nicknamed "Aquababy") in issue #23 (Sep-Oct 1965).<br />
The 1960s series introduced other such archenemies as the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a> (Aquaman's amnesiac half-brother Orm), <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> (a former Navy Seal, College Professor, and Millionaire-Business Genius, like Lex Luthor), the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisherman_(comics)" title="Fisherman (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Fisherman</span></u></a>, the Scavenger, and the terrorist organization known as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O.G.R.E._(comics)" title="O.G.R.E. (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">O.G.R.E.</span></u></a> Other recurring members of the Aquaman cast introduced in this series include the well-meaning but annoying <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qwsp" title="Qwsp"><u><span style="color: blue;">Quisp</span></u></a> (a water sprite); Dr. Vulko, a trustworthy Atlantean scientist who became Aquaman's royal advisor and whom Aquaman eventually appoints to be king after leaving the throne himself; and Tula (known as "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Tula" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Aquagirl</span></u></a>"), an Atlantean princess who was Aqualad's primary love interest (she died with the secret of baring his first son, Ethan).</div></div><div class="cf-title" style="margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-top: 10px;">Published by <a href="http://community.shutterfly.com/gallery/aboutme/start.sfly?alias=sonofaquamanL&cid=SHARE3SXXXX" target="_blank"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">sonofaquamanL</span></a> at 1:34pm<span class="pipe"><span style="color: #999999;">|</span></span><span class="commentsCount"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">0 Comments</span></span></div><div class="hr divider" style="font-size: 4px;"> </div><div id="n_236"><div class="journalItem"><div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><span class="journalItemHeader"><img class="ti-bullet2 noselect" src="http://www.blogger.com/shr/images/blank/74039724.gif" /><a href="http://legendofaquaman.shutterfly.com/#"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">COPIED & WRITTEN BY MATT CHOINAIRE AND EVAN WADE:</span></a></span></div><div class="journalItemBody"><h4><span class="mw-headline">Back to basics</span></h4><div class="thumb tright"><div class="thumbinner" style="width: 182px;"><a class="image" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet."><img alt="" border="0" class="thumbimage" height="280px" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/ce/Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg/180px-Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" width="180px" /></a> <div class="thumbcaption"><div class="magnify"><a class="internal" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="Enlarge"><span style="background-image: none; border-bottom-color: #0000ff; border-bottom-width: 2px; border-left-color: #0000ff; border-left-width: 2px; border-right-color: #0000ff; border-right-width: 2px; border-top-color: #0000ff; border-top-width: 2px; cursor: hand; display: inline-block; font-size: 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="display: inline-block; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='http://en.wikipedia.org/skins-1.5/common/images/magnify-clip.png'); height: 1px; width: 1px;"></span></span></a></div>2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet.</div></div></div>A sixth <i>Aquaman</i> series began shortly afterwards, initially written by <u><span style="color: blue;">Rick Veitch, Matt Gagston, and Dr. Frank Beckles</span></u> who sought to take Aquaman in a more mystical direction, by bringing back Aquaman's son, Arthur Jr., and re-naming him Arthur Joseph Curry. Subsequent writers who contributed to the series include <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ostrander" title="John Ostrander"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Ostrander</span></u></a>, Will Pfeifer, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Arcudi" title="John Arcudi"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Arcudi</span></u></a>. This series ran from issue #1 (Feb 2003) to #39 (Apr 2006) when it was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> (see below).<br />
As shown in this next series, The original Aquaman returns and his decision to sink ancient Atlantis caused displeasure among some of the city's citizens, and Arthur Jr. Was once again driven out of Poseidonis. He spent some time in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ireland" title="Ireland"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ireland</span></u></a>, where he met the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, who gave him a new prosthetic hand composed of mystical water with unusual properties. From there he returned to his more traditional look: orange shirt, short hair, and beardless.<br />
Later, Aquaman went to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Diego" title="San Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">San Diego</span></u></a> after a massive <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthquake" title="Earthquake"><u><span style="color: blue;">earthquake</span></u></a> plunged half the city into the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean" title="Pacific Ocean"><u><span style="color: blue;">Pacific Ocean</span></u></a>. He soon discovered that the survivors of the catastrophe were able to breathe underwater and began helping them to rebuild the submerged portion of the city they now called "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a>".<br />
During this time, Aquaman picked up a new sidekick named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Lorena_Marquez" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lorena</span></u></a>, who eventually became the new Aquagirl. For a time, it appeared that Aquaman might reconcile with Mera, as he attempted to take her to the surface in order to save her from the Atlantean mages who had transformed her into an air-breather, they fell in love again, and she concieved another son, so one day Aquaman's rightful heir will take his place at the throne.<br />
Shortly thereafter, during the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis" title="Infinite Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Infinite Crisis</span></u></a></i> event, Atlantis was nearly destroyed by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectre_(comics)" title="Spectre (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Spectre</span></u></a>, and many of its citizens were transported to a Pocket Universe, called "The Ultraverse"; where Spectre revealed that his intention was to bring back Aquaman's son, and restore peace and honor to Atlantis, including Aquaman's second son, Koryak and his oldest friend, (and father figure), Vulko. Arthur Joseph Curry (Arthur Jr./Aquaman's son) led the survivors to Sub Diego in the hope that the two displaced peoples could help each other. When <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> attacked the sunken city, Aquaman defeated him and left him for dead, he survived; and joined forces with Lex Luthor to destroy Aquaman & Superman, but Black Manta betrayed him and took LexCorp, and he took Lex's woman, made her his lover, and she bore a son; who will later grow up to replace him, as "Devil Ray" (Justice League: Unlimited) and try again to kill Aquaman and his family and fail, because of Aquaman's increasing powers & abilities (simular to Superman), during the course of his life he is rediscovering his aquatic, mystical, and untapped awesome abilities. To become the true "Savior" and Protector of Atlantis...<br />
Aquaman made a brief appearance at the memorial for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kon-El)" title="Superboy (Kon-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></a></i>. With <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 6) #40 (May 2006), the series was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> and taken in an entirely different direction by writers <u><span style="color: blue;">Kurt Busiek, Matt Choinaire, and Vic "The Iceman" Beckles</span></u>.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="The_Missing_Year" name="The_Missing_Year"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">The Missing Year</span></h4>During week 39 of the "missing year" depicted in the weekly comic book <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><i><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></i></a>, <u><span style="color: blue;">Ralph Dibny</span></u>, seemingly accompanied by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Fate" title="Doctor Fate"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dr. Fate</span></u></a>'s helmet, meets a bearded, long-haired, and amnesic Orin in the ruins of Atlantis. The helmet portends that <i>"if he lives... <b>if</b> he lives... it is as a victim of the magicks of legend and the power of the sea"</i>.<br />
Orin was transformed into the Dweller of the Depths during Week 50 of <i>52</i> in the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_III_(comics)" title="World War III (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">World War III</span></u></a></i> event. In a desperate bid to save the life of several <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a> inhabitants who have lost the ability to live in water, Orin makes a deal with the gods of the sea to gain the power to save them. Using the bones of his severed left hand in a magical ritual, the sea gods give Orin the power to raise Sub Diego onto dry land. However, Orin mutates into the <i>Dweller of the Depths</i> as a side effect of gaining his new abilities and loses his memories as a result. He is presumed dead in <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> #50, and his son Arthur Joseph Curry officially becomes the new Aquaman (for only a brief moment in the DC Universe).<br />
The original Aquaman returns to life in his original costume, without a full explanation, in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Crisis" title="Final Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Final Crisis</span></u></a></i> #7. All that is said is that he and his son (along with Garth & his Son Cerdian) was prophesied to return to Atlantis in his people's hour of greatest need (2010).<br />
<br />
The "Aquaman" movie trilogy, and upcoming Aquaman comic series (2011-Present): Will re-enforce all central concepts profiled on this website, and maintain the true legacy of Aquaman!!!<br />

The original <i>Aquaman</i> series ended with issue #56 (Mar-Apr 1971). Aquaman was given his own feature again in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #435-437, and #441-452, this time as the main feature in most of these issues. The <i>Aquaman</i> series was restarted with issue #57 (Aug-Sep 1977) and ran until issue #63 (Aug-Sep 1978), when it was finally canceled. Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #460-466, when his feature moved to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #262-264, and back to <i>Adventure Comics</i> (for the final time) from issues #475-478. Aquaman appeared in a backup feature in <i>Action Comics</i> which he shared with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_(Ray_Palmer)" title="Atom (Ray Palmer)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atom</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Wave" title="Air Wave"><u><span style="color: blue;">Air Wave</span></u></a> in various issues. Throughout this time Aquaman also appeared in various series (such as <i>Justice League of America</i>, <i>The Brave and the Bold</i>, <i>World's Finest Comics</i>, and <i>DC Comics Presents</i>) in partnership with other superheroes.<br />
After becoming king of Atlantis, Aquaman began a policy of slowly reintroducing the once-secretive Atlantis to the surface world. After he was briefly ousted from the throne by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_(comics)" title="Shark (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Shark</span></u></a> (whom he defeated), he made the decision to leave the throne to become a more traditional superhero, and Dr. Vulko was elected as the new king.<br />

<h4><span class="mw-headline">End of an era</span></h4>In the mid-1980s, after his own feature's demise, Aquaman was briefly made the leader of the Justice League of America. In a storyline told in <i>Justice League of America</i> #228-230, an invasion of Earth by a race of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian" title="Martian"><u><span style="color: blue;">Martians</span></u></a> occurred at a time when the core members were missing. Aquaman was thus forced to defend Earth with a League much-depleted in power and capability, and he took it upon himself to disband the Justice League altogether in <i>Justice League of America Annual</i> #2 (1984), thereafter reforming it with new bylaws requiring members to give full participation to the League's cases. With the help of a small number of veteran Justice League members willing to fully commit to the team, Aquaman recruited and trained four new and untried members, also relocating the team's headquarters to a reinforced bunker in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit" title="Detroit"><u><span style="color: blue;">Detroit</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan" title="Michigan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Michigan</span></u></a> after the destruction of the JLA's satellite headquarters during the invasion.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-jlah_4-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-jlah-4" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> Aquaman's participation in this new version of the Justice League ended in #243 (Oct 1985), when he resigned to work on his marriage with Mera. Subsequently, two of the four new recruits (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibe_(comics)" title="Vibe (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Vibe</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commander_Steel#Hank_Heywood_III" title="Commander Steel"><u><span style="color: blue;">Steel</span></u></a>) were killed in action.<br />

The series was well received and a follow up limited series was in the works, though it was eventually canceled due to creative problems.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-5" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> This series also expanded on several details of the Silver Age Aquaman's origin as well as Aquaman's relationship with his half-brother, Ocean Master, whose origin was retold in more complete detail. The series also added mystical elements to Aquaman's mythology and reinvented Ocean Master as a sorcerer. Aquaman reappeared in his blue costume in the <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 (1988).<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Retelling_origins" name="Retelling_origins"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">Retelling origins</span></h4>In 1989, the <i>Legend of Aquaman Special</i> (officially titled as <i>Aquaman Special</i> #1 in the comic's legal indicia, the second <i>Special</i> in back-to-back years) rewrote Aquaman's mythos and origin, though keeping most of his Silver Age history intact. The special was by writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Loren_Fleming" title="Robert Loren Fleming"><u><span style="color: blue;">Robert Loren Fleming</span></u></a>, with plots/breakdown art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Giffen" title="Keith Giffen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Keith Giffen</span></u></a> and full pencil art by artist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curt_Swan" title="Curt Swan"><u><span style="color: blue;">Curt Swan</span></u></a>.<br />
The Modern Age Aquaman is born as Orin to Queen Atlanna and the mysterious wizard <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlan_(DC_Comics)" title="Atlan (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Atlan</span></u></a> in the Atlantean city of Poseidonis, was abandoned on Mercy Reef as a baby because of his blond hair, which was seen by the superstitious Atlanteans as a sign of a curse they called "the Mark of Kordax." The only individual who spoke up on Orin's behalf was Vulko, a scientist who had no patience for myth or superstition. While his pleas were to no avail, Vulko would later become a close friend and advisor to the young Orin.<br />
As a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_child" title="Feral child"><u><span style="color: blue;">feral child</span></u></a> who raised himself in the wilds of the ocean with only sea creatures to keep him company, Orin was found and taken in by a lighthouse keeper named Arthur Curry who named Orin "Arthur Curry" after himself. One day Orin returned home and found that his adoptive father had disappeared, so he set off on his own. In his early teens, Orin ventured to the far north, where he met and fell in love with an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inupiat" title="Inupiat"><u><span style="color: blue;">Inupiat</span></u></a> girl named Kako. He also first earned the hatred of Orm, the future Ocean Master who was later revealed to be Arthur's half-brother by Atlan and an Inupiat woman. Orin was driven away before he could learn that Kako had become pregnant with his son, Koryak.<br />
Orin then returned to the seas mostly staying out of humanity's sight, until he discovered Poseidonis. He was captured by the city's then-dictatorial government and placed in a prison camp, where he met Vulko, also a prisoner of the state, who taught Orin the language and ways of the Atlanteans. While Orin was there he realized that his mother was also being held captive, but after her death he broke out and fled. Eventually, he made his way to the surface world, where under the name of "Aquaman" he became one of several superheroes emerging into the public view at the time. Upon his return to Poseidonis he was made the king, and sometime later he met and married Mera. The Modern Age Aquaman's history is nearly identical to that of the Silver Age Aquaman from this point on.<br />

Shortly afterwards, an alien force conquered Atlantis. Arthur was forced to save the city but was hampered by an escaped Mera who personally blamed Arthur for the death of their son. In a fit of rage, Mera left Aquaman's dimension.<br />
The publication of writer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_David" title="Peter David"><u><span style="color: blue;">Peter David</span></u></a>'s <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantis_(DC_Comics)#Atlantis_Chronicles" title="Atlantis (DC Comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Atlantis Chronicles</span></u></a></i> #1-7 (Mar-Sep 1990), which told the story of Atlantis from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antediluvian" title="Antediluvian"><u><span style="color: blue;">antediluvian</span></u></a> times to Aquaman's birth, successfully revived interest in the character. Significantly, it was in this limited series that the ancient Atlantean characters Orin (whose name was given as Aquaman's Atlantean name) and Atlan (who was revealed to be Aquaman's father) were introduced.<br />
A new <i>Aquaman</i> ongoing series (#1-13) thereafter ran from December 1991 to December 1992, which portrayed Aquaman reluctantly deciding to remain in Poseidonis as its protector once again. For a time, he served as Atlantis' representative to the United Nations but always found himself thrust back into the superhero role. Becoming more and more of a workaholic and solitary figure, Aquaman eventually returned to the oceans. He soon became tangled up in another attempt by Black Manta to destroy Atlantis by dragging it into a war with a surface nation.<br />
Peter David returned to the character in another limited series, <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i>, a 1993/1994 four-issue series which further explained Aquaman's origins as he finally learned all about the history of his people through the <i>Atlantis Chronicles</i> (presented as historical texts passed down and updated through the centuries). Aquaman learned that his birth name was Orin and that he and his enemy Ocean Master shared the same father, "an ancient Atlantean wizard" called Atlan. This revelation sent Orin into a bout of rage and depression, setting the stage for later confrontations between the two, as it was said that "two brothers will also battle for control of Atlantis" (the Silver Age Aquaman had always known that the Ocean Master was his half-brother Orm, although Orm's amnesia prevented him from remembering that fact for some time).<br />

(Art by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Calafiore" title="Jim Calafiore"><u><span style="color: blue;">Jim Calafiore</span></u></a>.</div></div></div>Aquaman received his own series again with the publication of the fifth <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Aug 1994), initially scripted by Peter David, following up on his 1993 <i>Aquaman: Time and Tide</i> limited series. This new <i>Aquaman</i> series was the longest-running for the character, lasting until its 75th issue. David left the series after issue #46 (Jul 1998) after working on it for nearly four years.<br />
Soon in <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 5) #2 (Sep 1994), Aquaman lost his left hand when the madman <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charybdis_(comics)" title="Charybdis (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Charybdis</span></u></a> stole his ability to communicate with sea life and stuck Arthur's hand into a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha" title="Piranha"><u><span style="color: blue;">piranha</span></u></a>-infested pool. This caused Aquaman to become somewhat unhinged, and he soon began having prophetic dreams. Soon after, he attached a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpoon" title="Harpoon"><u><span style="color: blue;">harpoon</span></u></a> spearhead to his left arm in place of his missing hand. This was the start of an entirely new look: the classic orange shirt was discarded for a gladiatorial <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorica_manica" title="Lorica manica"><u><span style="color: blue;">manica</span></u></a>. Forsaking his former clean-cut appearance, Aquaman grew long hair and a longish beard. After the destruction of the harpoon, Aquaman had it replaced with a cybernetic prosthetic from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.T.A.R._Labs" title="S.T.A.R. Labs"><u><span style="color: blue;">S.T.A.R. Labs</span></u></a>. This new harpoon had a retractable reel that he could fully control.<br />
A major storyline, culminating in #25, concerned the Five Lost Cities of Atlantis. Facing an unearthly invading species linked to the origin of the Atlanteans, Aquaman had to search out and unite the lost cities. This storyline established him as a true Warrior King, and he became a major political power. The remainder of Peter David's run focused on Orin coming to terms with his genetic heritage and his role as a king.<br />
After a brief stint by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Abnett" title="Dan Abnett"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Abnett</span></u></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Lanning" title="Andy Lanning"><u><span style="color: blue;">Andy Lanning</span></u></a>, David was replaced as writer by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Larsen" title="Erik Larsen"><u><span style="color: blue;">Erik Larsen</span></u></a> with issue #50 (Dec 1998). Larsen's work proved unpopular with readers, however, and with issue #63 (Jan 2000) he was replaced by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Jurgens" title="Dan Jurgens"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dan Jurgens</span></u></a>, who saw the series through to its cancellation with issue #75 (Jan 2001).<br />
Aquaman rejoined the JLA when it reformed and remained an active member of that team until the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Worlds_at_War" title="Our Worlds at War"><u><span style="color: blue;">Our Worlds at War</span></u></a></i> event, during which Aquaman and the city of Poseidonis disappeared and were presumed to be destroyed. The JLA later discovered that Poseidonis and its inhabitants were taken into the ancient past by a powerful Atlantean sorceress named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamemnae" title="Gamemnae"><u><span style="color: blue;">Gamemnae</span></u></a>. The people of Poseidonis were made slaves by their Atlantean ancestors, and Aquaman himself was transformed into living water and imprisoned in an ornamental pool.<br />
After a few months of their time — but fully fifteen years for the Atlanteans — the JLA freed Aquaman in "The Obsidian Age" storyline in <i>JLA</i> #66-75 (Jul 2002-Jan 2003), and Poseidonis and its people were returned to the present by the JLA, though not before Aquaman was forced to sink ancient Atlantis.<br />

They knew no violence; Peace and serenity were their way of life. King Thar came into power and ruled from Shayeris, the Idylist capital city. Thar had inherited much of his ancestor's mythic power, and practiced sorcery alongside his brother, Slizzath. The history of Atlantis is fraught with a recurring theme: brother against brother. King Thar was no exception. </div><div class="headerbig">Thar's brother Slizzath thought the power should be his and resented his brother taking it from him. Slizzath was denied his birthright because he dabbled in the black arts by practicing necromancy – the evocation of the dead. He was banished from the Hidden Valley but returned 20 years later with an army of undead soldiers. Fearing his brother's attack, Thar assembled an armory of weapons, specifically designed to stop Slizzath. The Idylists, however, thought Thar was going insane. The peace-loving people revolted, killing their once-beloved king. Fearing the monarchy was tainted by foul violence, the Idylists banished his now-pregnant wife, Berra, who found her way to Atlantis and gave birth to a son - who she named Garth.</div><div class="headerbig">Before Thar died, he was able to use his magics to trap Slizzath in an other-dimensional prison. It was, however, an imperfect imprisonment. Slizzath would be able to manipulate particular spells as a means of escape. Such a spell was Garth's birthright ritual - which he would one day perform to seal his mystical powers. Upon giving birth to Garth, Berra gazed upon his purple eyes - the Idylist mark of power. At that moment, her son's destiny seemed clear: Garth would one day perform the very spell that would free Slizzath. Feeling she had no other choice, Berra left her son to die.</div><table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="2" style="height: 20px; width: 12px;"><tbody>

</tbody></table><b>Meeting Aquaman</b><br />
Miraculously, Garth survived in the ocean depths on his own. As the infant grew into boyhood, he eventually met Atlantis' greatest hero, Aquaman. Befriended by Aquaman, the youth was cured of his fear and became Aqualad, the Sea King's junior partner in crime-fighting. Aqualad possessed abilities which, while not increased by a hybrid metabolism as are Aquaman's, were greater than those of the average Atlantean. Like Aquaman, he could telepathically control and converse with all manner of sea creatures, as well as being able to breathe underwater like all Atlanteans and to swim at fantastic speeds with super-human endurance. Also like his mentor, his sole weakness lay in his inability to remain on land without contact with water for longer than one hour without asphyxiating. <br />
After roaming the ocean depths with Aquaman (while attending school in Scotland by special arrangement), Aqualad returned to Atlantis as a permanent resident when Aquaman married Mera, the queen of an extra-dimensional water-world, and became the new king of Atlantis, and later have a son; which they named Arthur Jr.<br />

</tbody></table>The second meeting of the teen sidekicks was more eventful: Robin,Kid Flash, Aqualad, now joined by Wonder Girl and Speedy, fought against their mentors, who had been possessed by the evil Antithesis. At this second meeting, the five youngsters decided to become a team and the Teen Titans were born! The sidekicks would continue to operate with their mentors, as well as spending time with their peers in the Teen Titans. <br />
Aqualad eventually took an extended leave of absence from the Titans in order to aid Aquaman in a lengthy quest for Mera, who had been abducted by parties unknown, and to care for the royal couple's infant son in their absence. Aqualad was replaced in the group by Speedy. It was about this time that Garth began dating Tula, who was also known as Aquagirl. This began a long relationship that lasted until Tula's tragic death.<br />
In his absence, the Teen Titans had undergone radical changes, becoming the non-costumed, pacifist participants in the special training program run by Mr. Jupiter. Aqualad rejoined the Teen Titans, only to find himself at odds with their new ideologies, under the guidance of Loren Jupiter. He became an occasional member, helping out with a handful of cases. And as he did participate in the group, he was plagued with an undiagnosed sickness, which was actually a manifestation of an inferiority complex. It seemed Garth felt useless to the team, largely in part due to his one hour limitation away from water. Garth officially resigned from the team shortly before they eventually disbanded anyway.<br />

Garth decided to search for the truths behind his family roots. Aqualad barged into a meeting of the Idylist ruling council, demanding information about his parents. The council refused to give Aqualad any information as they feared he may learn the truth. Soon after, Aqualad found a banished Idylist hermit who admitted to killing King Thar. Upon seeing a picture, Aqualad immediately recognized Thar as his father. </div><div class="text">Aqualad broke through security and accessed the ancient files to learn his parents were King Thar and Queen Berra, who ruled peacefully until King Thar went mad and became hungry for war. The Idylist recorded history made no mention of Slizzath's dark magics; When Garth investigated, the Idylist archives only made mention of King Thar's insanity and the Idlysist's subsequent revolt. Garth also believed he was left to die because the superstitious Atlanteans thought his purple eyes were a sign of inferiority. Garth left believing his mother was dead and his father was indeed insane. He would later discover that this information was false.</div><b>Titans Ally & Tragedy Strikes</b><br />

</tbody></table>The next incarnation of the Teen Titans was gathered by Raven, which Aqualad was not to be a part of, although he did assist the team on various cases - including the shattering Crisis on Infinite Earths. During the Crisis, Garth's longtime love Tula was killed. Garth was devastated.<br />
Aqualad remained in Atlantis, and grieved for a long time after the death of Tula. Still, Garth assisted the Titans on various missions. On one such case, Garth was abducted by a then-insane Mento (one of the sons of Black Manta). Mento used his helmet that granted him vast mental powers to inflict psychological torture on Garth. This somehow effected his ability to telepathically control sea life. It did, however, allow him to come to terms with the death of Tula, to some degree.<br />
Garth's marine telepathy would return a short time later, during the 'Millennium/Manhunter' conflict. Following that, Garth remained a close ally of the Titans. When the Titans were attacked and captured by the Wildebeest Society, Garth and Golden Eagle were savagely attacked; Golden Eagle was seemingly slain, and Garth lay in a coma for weeks. Once revived, Aqualad donned a new costume and helped ease the Titans into their next phase under the auspices of the United States government.<br />

Garth began to team up more regularly with Aquaman at this time. As the Aqua-allies tried to stave off an alien invasion, Garth was whisked away by Aquaman's father, Atlan, a mage who existed in another dimension. Atlan told Garth his destiny was to become a powerful mage as well. Atlan trained Garth in his dimension, and taught him how to greatly augment his powers. Garth studied with Atlan for a couple of years, although only a couple of months passed in Aquaman's world. Thus, Garth returned a short time after his disappearance (yet aged a couple of years) with new powers, including the ability to control the temperature of water and fire mystical power blasts from his eyes. Garth was also given a new purpose by Atlan, who told him his destiny was to protect all who live in the ocean.<br />
Upon his return, Garth encountered his uncle - Slizzath - who had transformed himself into a demonic sea creature through dark magic. Slizzath sought to escape his mystical imprisonment using Garth as a conduit. Slizzath created a mystical a doppelganger of Tula, who was created to trap Garth and siphon his new powers. Garth saw through the plan and was able to defeat Slizzath, and once and for all maintain a sense of closure about Tula's death. Garth also adopted a new identity as Tempest. <br />
During this time, Garth also discovered his mother Berra was still alive, and living with a group of Idyllists. This forced Garth to confront his feelings of abandonment by his mother, and mother and son began to take tentative steps toward rebuilding their relationship.<br />

Shortly after this, Garth began a relationship with Dolphin, who was once romantically involved with Aquaman. Initially, Garth and Dolphin concealed their relationship from Aquaman, unsure of what his reaction would be. Eventually, Aquaman learned of their relationship and gave them his blessing.<br />
The Titans later gathered together to save their former member, Victor Stone "Cyborg" (played by Victor Beckles in the movie "Teen Titans"), from alien influence. The original five Titans - including Tempest - decided to re-form the team with five additional recruits. <br />
Dolphin later discovered she was pregnant. Garth was happy at the news and proposed marriage. Garth and Dolphin were married in a traditional Atlantean ceremony with friends and family in attendance. Dolphin has since given birth to a son. Dolphin and Tempest's first child was named Cerdian by Aquaman as a gesture to the surface-country Cerdia, which had recently fallen under Atlantean control.<br />
Meanwhile, Aquaman's long lost son, is trapped in another dimension. But years later, returns to the modern DC Universe, with the help of The Spectre, his memory of his father, and background is altered, and he is brainwashed into becoming the new Aquaman.

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Publication history</span></h3>As part of DC Comics' <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Year_Later" title="One Year Later"><u><span style="color: blue;">One Year Later</span></u></a></i> event, Aquaman's series was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> with issue #40 (May 2006). The new developments include a new lead character, a new supporting cast, and the inclusion of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sword_and_sorcery" title="Sword and sorcery"><u><span style="color: blue;">sword and sorcery</span></u></a>-type fantasy elements in the series.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Fictional_character_biography_2" name="Fictional_character_biography_2"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Fictional character biography</span></h3>While awaiting transport unknown to him, from an alternate universe, called the "Ultraverse" (where the original Aquaman, Green Arrow, & The Flash has been), to present day <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miami" title="Miami"><u><span style="color: blue;">Miami</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida" title="Florida"><u><span style="color: blue;">Florida</span></u></a>, a young man named Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. Is washed out to sea when a storm ruptures the tank he was in. This Arthur Curry, whose origin closely resembles that of the Golden Age Aquaman as well as that of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune_Perkins" title="Neptune Perkins"><u><span style="color: blue;">Neptune Perkins</span></u></a>, is the son of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biology" title="Marine biology"><u><span style="color: blue;">oceanobiologist</span></u></a> Dr. Phillip Curry, (Arthur Curry's third half-brother). Dr. Curry was forced to lie about Arthur Jr.'s true origin by Spectre, for fear of his threat to kill his kidnapped wife and two sons. Dr. Curry, with the help of The Spectre created in Arthur's mind that he had lived his whole life in the main tank of his father's research facility at Avalon Cay, his only window to the outside world being television.<br />
Shortly after his arrival in the sea, Arthur Jr. Is mentally contacted by the mysterious "Dweller of the Depths", a deformed humanoid with tentacles instead of hair and a left hand made of water. The Dweller urges him to help <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Shark" title="King Shark"><u><span style="color: blue;">King Shark</span></u></a>, who still bears scars from a previous battle with The Real Aquaman during the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis" title="Infinite Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">recent Crisis</span></u></a>. The Dweller, confusing Arthur for Aquaman and calling him his "charge", tells Arthur and King Shark of a prophecy regarding Arthur's future, a prophecy which seems to be a distorted version of the original Aquaman's history. The Dweller reveals that the original Aquaman was <i>"transformed into one akin to another dimension, to return to greatness once again in the future."</i><br />
Arthur Jr.'s first trip causes him to meet many of Aquaman's supporting characters including Mera, the Sea Devils, Vulko, and eventually <u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master (the brother of Dr. Phillip Curry and Arthur Curry- the original Aquaman)</span></u>. During this adventure, the Dweller progressively realizes that he himself is the original Aquaman, who slipped out of the pocket universe, The Spectre had him trapped in, despite having no memory of his former life, being married, and having three sons!<br />
Later Arthur Jr. finds a humanoid squid named Topo, a naive youth attracted by superheroics, seeking to become a sidekick, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Tempest</span></u></a>, now the father of a son and twins by his wife, Dolphin, he is unable to breathe water (re-gains all of his powers later) and implanted with a post-hypnotic suggestion warning of an upcoming battle. The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_League" title="Justice League"><u><span style="color: blue;">Justice League</span></u></a> is called in to evaluate Orin's situation, but are unable to determine if he is truly dead, or if he can somehow resurrect himself due to his new magical nature.<br />
In <i>Sword of Atlantis</i> #57, the series' final issue, Aquaman II is visited by the Lady of the Lake who explains his origins. The original Aquaman had given a sample of his water hand to his father in order to resurrect his dead son, Arthur, whom he had named after Orin. When Orin attempted to resurrect Sub Diego, part of his soul attached itself to the body of his son, Arthur Joseph Curry Jr., while Orin's physical form mutated into the Dweller. Blaming himself for Orin's disappearance into the Ultraverse, Aquaman II, vows to never be called "Arthur Jr." again, refraining from using the "stolen" name, asking only to be called Joseph in the future.<br />
Arthur Jr., is considered as a candidate for the new <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outsiders_(comics)" title="Outsiders (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Outsiders</span></u></a> by <u><span style="color: blue;">Batman (secretly knowing that he is in fact, Aquaman's son)</span></u>. After seeing him in action with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamorpho" title="Metamorpho"><u><span style="color: blue;">Metamorpho</span></u></a>, however, Batman decides against his induction.<br />
In their quest to rid the Earth of all forms of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">kryptonite</span></u></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman" title="Superman"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superman</span></u></a> and Batman journey deep below the sea and find a large amount of it. The two of them are met with hostility by Aquaman and King Shark. A brief fight ensues, but eventually Joseph allows them to take what they came for. Before doing so, he points out that not everyone may want Superman to find all of Earth's kryptonite, and that he would have to be at least part human to know that.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Powers_and_abilities" name="Powers_and_abilities"></a><br />
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Powers and abilities</span></h2><a href="about:blank" id="Orin" name="Orin"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Orin</span></h3>Aquaman II, has a number of superhuman powers like his father, and superhuman strength, most of which derived from his father, and from the fact that he is adapted to live in the depths of the ocean. Primary among his powers is the ability to extract oxygen from water, allowing him to 'breathe' while submerged. He is unaffected by the immense pressure and the cold temperature of the ocean depths; further, he possesses an enhanced resistance to injury and superhuman strength (he can easily throw a car hundreds of feet). He is likewise able to swim at very high speeds. He can see in near total darkness and has enhanced hearing. Although he can remain underwater indefinitely without suffering any ill effects, Aquaman grows weak if he remains on land for extended periods.<br />
Aquaman II's most famous (or infamous) power is the telepathic ability to communicate with/command oceanic life. The range of this power is unclear; certainly he can summon sea life from vast distances. Although this power is most often and most easily used on marine life, Aquaman II, has on multiple occasions demonstrated the capacity to affect any being evolved from marine life (e.g., humans), or that lives upon the sea (e.g. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_eagle" title="Sea eagle"><u><span style="color: blue;">sea eagles</span></u></a>).<br />
Aquaman II's telepathic abilities are otherwise unrefined but it has been demonstrated on multiple occasions that he can use his abilities to supplement other more skilled telepaths such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian_Manhunter" title="Martian Manhunter"><u><span style="color: blue;">J'onn J'onzz</span></u></a>. He has also demonstrated classic telepathic abilities like telepathic eavesdropping on people's thoughts, but this ability was displayed infrequently.<br />
After the loss of his hand, Aquaman II, initially replaced it with a cybernetic harpoon that responded to his thoughts and could be fired while staying attached via a retractable line. Later, the harpoon was replaced by a magical hand made out of water given to him by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, which grants Aquaman II Numerous abilities, including but not limited to: the ability to dehydrate anyone he touches with it, killing them instantly; to make the hand extremely dense, thus taking Aquaman II, to the ocean floor quickly; to shoot jets of scalding water; healing abilities; and the ability to nullify magic.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Arthur_Joseph" name="Arthur_Joseph"></a><br />
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. (a.k.a "Arthur Jr.")</span></h3>The new Aquaman has many physical abilities in common with his father, the original Aquaman, including underwater breathing, submarine speed, and superhuman strength. Like the Golden Age Aquaman, Arthur Jr. Can't survive outside of water for long. He also gained telepathic powers. He now speaks and understands the languages of the sentient sea peoples unaided, and has a limited ability to communicate with nonsentient sea life. He cannot speak directly to them as his predecessor could, but can send and receive emotional impressions and desires, such as communicating a need for help. He is working to expand the latter ability, and in one instance has been able to "see" through the eyes of nearby fish. In the motion picture; "Aquaman" (2014), Charlie Hunnam, who beat out Brad Pitt for the legendary role, as Arthur Curry a new "Savior" to the rediscovered lost city of Atlantis in Aquaman... This Aquaman, who will be the Golden Age version of the iconic hero, but will have all the flare and saga of "Aquman's Son" Arthur Curry, Jr., (or Arthur Joseph Curry): based on the 2007 comic book series "Aquaman: The Sword of Atlantis", and the "Young Justice" 2011 cartoon series; this movie series will kick butt, and fans are going to really love it!! AQUAMAN the movie trilogy, will bring back to life all of the characters & core heroes of the Aquaman comic book mythos, and revamp the abandoned "Aquaman" comic book title & reboot the series to a whole new level. Redefining & increasing powers of the legends of Aquaman, Aqualad, Mera, and Vulko as irreplaceable heroes in the DC Universe. The Movie saga will inspire fans, and have all the combination themes of other fan favorite movies like: STAR WARS, (the special effects & magical powers of HARRY POTTER), LORD OF THE RINGS, AND TRON: LEGACY, BATMAN & ROBIN, SUPERMAN, AND THE MATRIX TRILOGY....</blockquote><div class="picture-pic picture-pic-1 hover" hover-type="menu" id="n_72-1" s:contextmenu="Shr.Menus.None" s:menuargs="72-1" style="background-color: #f0eeef; border-bottom: #88a942 1px solid; border-left: #88a942 1px solid; border-right: #88a942 1px solid; border-top: #88a942 1px solid; height: 427px; width: 278px;"><div><img height="427px" sid="72" src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procsrserv/47b9dc38b3127cce98548a41d7b300000040000QbMmTdu4asv/cC/rx=278/ry=427/cr=0.0,0.0,1,1" width="278px" /></div></div><br style="clear: both; font-size: 1px;" /><br />

He was also shown to have the ability to communicate with sea-life and have them do his bidding. Initially, he was depicted as speaking to sea creatures "in their own language", and only when they were close enough to hear him rather than being telepathic in nature. While he was often described as the "sovereign of the sea," with the waters of the entire globe his "domain," and almost every sea creature his "loyal subject," the title was never an official one. Aquaman's adventures took place all across the world, and the only base he appeared to have was "an ancient temple of lost Atlantis, kept underwater," in which he kept a solitary throne.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-1" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup> There was also a structure called the "Aquacave", a dry series of caves in which he kept the "Atlantis Chronicles", although it is unclear if this is distinct from the ancient temple, or the same location.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-dc-aqua_2-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaman#cite_note-dc-aqua-2" title=""><u><span style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></span></span></u></a></sup><br />
During his <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II"><u><span style="color: blue;">wartime</span></u></a> adventures, most of Aquaman's foes were <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism" title="Nazism"><u><span style="color: blue;">Nazi</span></u></a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-boat" title="U-boat"><u><span style="color: blue;">U-boat</span></u></a> commanders and various <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_powers" title="Axis powers"><u><span style="color: blue;">Axis</span></u></a> villains. The rest of his adventures in the 1940s and 1950s had him dealing with various sea-based criminals, including modern-day pirates such as his longtime archenemy Black Jack, as well as various threats to aquatic life, shipping lanes, and sailors.<br />

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Silver Age</span></h3>Starting in 1959, Aquaman's backstory was revised, with various new supporting characters added and several adjustments made to the character, his origins, his powers, and persona.<br />

Due to his heritage, Aquaman discovered as a youth that he possessed various superhuman abilities, including the powers of surviving underwater, communication with sea life, and tremendous swimming prowess. Eventually, Arthur decided to use his talents to become the defender of the Earth's oceans, first starting a career as "Aquaboy" (that also became the name of Aquaman's last son, years later in 2009, after his discovery that his first son; Arthur Jr., whose name was changed to Arthur Joseph Curry, was still alive and protected by The Spectre; was conceived by Mera, after falling in love with him again, and became re-married) and meeting <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kal-El)" title="Superboy (Kal-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> (Earth's only other superpowered hero at the time) on one occasion (<i>Superboy</i> #171, Jan 1971). When Arthur grew up, he called himself "Aquaman".<br />
It was later revealed (in <i>Aquaman</i> #29) that after Atlanna's death, Tom Curry met and married an ordinary human woman and had a son named Orm Curry, Aquaman's half-brother. Orm grew up as a troubled youth in the shadow of his brother (along with Nathan Hayes, a black navy seal, who becomes "Black Manta"), who constantly bailed him out of trouble with the law. He grew to hate Aquaman not only for the powers that he could never possess but also because he knew that their father would always favor Aquaman. Orm disappeared after becoming an amnesiac and would resurface years later as Aquaman's archnemesis, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a>.<br />
By the late 1950s, Aquaman's ability to talk with fish had been expanded to full-fledged telepathic communication with sea creatures even from great distances, but in <i>Adventure Comics</i> #256 (Jan 1959) he was also <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroactive_continuity" title="Retroactive continuity"><u><span style="color: blue;">retroactively</span></u></a> given a specific weakness akin to Superman's vulnerability to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kryptonite" title="Kryptonite"><u><span style="color: blue;">Kryptonite</span></u></a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Lantern" title="Green Lantern"><u><span style="color: blue;">Green Lantern</span></u></a>'s vulnerability to the color yellow: Aquaman had to come into contact with water at least once per hour, or he would get weak (prior to this story Aquaman could exist both in and out of water indefinitely). This problem was later explained as a characteristic of all Atlanteans. But it doesn't apply to Aquaman anymore, because over the years, he develops new powers and abilities, and discovers that he is involving into a powerful being. More powerful that Superman.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="Allies_and_foes" name="Allies_and_foes"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">Allies and foes</span></h4>Aquaman was included in the <i>Justice League of America</i> comic book series, appearing with the team in their very first adventure in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brave_and_the_Bold" title="The Brave and the Bold"><u><span style="color: blue;">The Brave and the Bold</span></u></a></i> #28 (Feb-Mar 1960). He was a founding member of the team, as shown in a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashback" title="Flashback"><u><span style="color: blue;">flashback</span></u></a> in <i>Justice League of America</i> #9 (Feb 1962). Aquaman took part in most of the 1960s adventures of the superhero team.<br />
With <i>Adventure Comics</i> #269 (Feb 1960), Aquaman's supporting cast and rogues gallery began to grow with the addition of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garth_(comics)" title="Garth (comics)"><u><span style="color: purple;">Aqualad</span></u></a>, an outcast, orphaned youth from an Atlantean colony whom Aquaman takes in and begins to mentor. <i>Adventure Comics</i> #264 (Sep 1959) introduced the submerged <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:DC_Comics_cities_and_towns" title="Category:DC Comics cities and towns"><u><span style="color: blue;">fictional city</span></u></a> of New Venice, which was later revealed to be based in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida" title="Florida"><u><span style="color: blue;">Florida</span></u></a> and which also became Aquaman's base of operations for a time in the early 1980s, beginning with <i>World's Finest Comics</i> #263 (Jun-Jul 1980).<br />
Aquaman continued to appear in <i>Adventure Comics</i> until issue #284 (May 1961), when the feature moved to <i>Detective Comics</i> from issues #293-300 (Jul 1961-Feb 1962), then to <i>World's Finest Comics</i> from issues #125-139 (May 1962-Feb 1964). After four tryout issues in bi-monthly <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Showcase_(comics)" title="Showcase (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Showcase</span></u></a></i> (#30-33, Feb-Aug 1961), Aquaman gained his own series for the first time with the publication of <i>Aquaman</i> #1 (Jan-Feb 1962).<br />
Aquaman eventually met the Atlanteans and became their ally. He was recognized as the son of Atlanna and later voted to be the King after the death of the former regent, who had no heirs. By this time Aquaman had met <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mera_(comics)" title="Mera (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Mera</span></u></a>, a queen from a water-based dimension, and he married her at the same time he was crowned king of Atlantis, <i>Aquaman</i> #18 (Nov-Dec 1964). They soon had a son, Arthur, Jr. (nicknamed "Aquababy") in issue #23 (Sep-Oct 1965).<br />
The 1960s series introduced other such archenemies as the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Master" title="Ocean Master"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ocean Master</span></u></a> (Aquaman's amnesiac half-brother Orm), <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> (a former Navy Seal, College Professor, and Millionaire-Business Genius, like Lex Luthor), the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisherman_(comics)" title="Fisherman (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Fisherman</span></u></a>, the Scavenger, and the terrorist organization known as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O.G.R.E._(comics)" title="O.G.R.E. (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">O.G.R.E.</span></u></a> Other recurring members of the Aquaman cast introduced in this series include the well-meaning but annoying <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qwsp" title="Qwsp"><u><span style="color: blue;">Quisp</span></u></a> (a water sprite); Dr. Vulko, a trustworthy Atlantean scientist who became Aquaman's royal advisor and whom Aquaman eventually appoints to be king after leaving the throne himself; and Tula (known as "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Tula" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Aquagirl</span></u></a>"), an Atlantean princess who was Aqualad's primary love interest (she died with the secret of baring his first son, Ethan).</div></div><div class="cf-title" style="margin-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-top: 10px;">Published by <a href="http://community.shutterfly.com/gallery/aboutme/start.sfly?alias=sonofaquamanL&cid=SHARE3SXXXX" target="_blank"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">sonofaquamanL</span></a> at 1:34pm<span class="pipe"><span style="color: #999999;">|</span></span><span class="commentsCount"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">0 Comments</span></span></div><div class="hr divider" style="font-size: 4px;"> </div><div id="n_236"><div class="journalItem"><div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><span class="journalItemHeader"><img class="ti-bullet2 noselect" src="http://www.blogger.com/shr/images/blank/74039724.gif" /><a href="http://legendofaquaman.shutterfly.com/#"><span style="color: #47a7ce;">COPIED & WRITTEN BY MATT CHOINAIRE AND EVAN WADE:</span></a></span></div><div class="journalItemBody"><h4><span class="mw-headline">Back to basics</span></h4><div class="thumb tright"><div class="thumbinner" style="width: 182px;"><a class="image" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet."><img alt="" border="0" class="thumbimage" height="280px" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/ce/Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg/180px-Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" width="180px" /></a> <div class="thumbcaption"><div class="magnify"><a class="internal" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Aquaman7_Guichet.jpg" title="Enlarge"><span style="background-image: none; border-bottom-color: #0000ff; border-bottom-width: 2px; border-left-color: #0000ff; border-left-width: 2px; border-right-color: #0000ff; border-right-width: 2px; border-top-color: #0000ff; border-top-width: 2px; cursor: hand; display: inline-block; font-size: 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="display: inline-block; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(src='http://en.wikipedia.org/skins-1.5/common/images/magnify-clip.png'); height: 1px; width: 1px;"></span></span></a></div>2003 series' initial look by Yvel Guichet.</div></div></div>A sixth <i>Aquaman</i> series began shortly afterwards, initially written by <u><span style="color: blue;">Rick Veitch, Matt Gagston, and Dr. Frank Beckles</span></u> who sought to take Aquaman in a more mystical direction, by bringing back Aquaman's son, Arthur Jr., and re-naming him Arthur Joseph Curry. Subsequent writers who contributed to the series include <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ostrander" title="John Ostrander"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Ostrander</span></u></a>, Will Pfeifer, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Arcudi" title="John Arcudi"><u><span style="color: blue;">John Arcudi</span></u></a>. This series ran from issue #1 (Feb 2003) to #39 (Apr 2006) when it was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> (see below).<br />
As shown in this next series, The original Aquaman returns and his decision to sink ancient Atlantis caused displeasure among some of the city's citizens, and Arthur Jr. Was once again driven out of Poseidonis. He spent some time in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ireland" title="Ireland"><u><span style="color: blue;">Ireland</span></u></a>, where he met the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lady of the Lake</span></u></a>, who gave him a new prosthetic hand composed of mystical water with unusual properties. From there he returned to his more traditional look: orange shirt, short hair, and beardless.<br />
Later, Aquaman went to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Diego" title="San Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">San Diego</span></u></a> after a massive <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthquake" title="Earthquake"><u><span style="color: blue;">earthquake</span></u></a> plunged half the city into the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean" title="Pacific Ocean"><u><span style="color: blue;">Pacific Ocean</span></u></a>. He soon discovered that the survivors of the catastrophe were able to breathe underwater and began helping them to rebuild the submerged portion of the city they now called "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a>".<br />
During this time, Aquaman picked up a new sidekick named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquagirl#Lorena_Marquez" title="Aquagirl"><u><span style="color: blue;">Lorena</span></u></a>, who eventually became the new Aquagirl. For a time, it appeared that Aquaman might reconcile with Mera, as he attempted to take her to the surface in order to save her from the Atlantean mages who had transformed her into an air-breather, they fell in love again, and she concieved another son, so one day Aquaman's rightful heir will take his place at the throne.<br />
Shortly thereafter, during the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis" title="Infinite Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Infinite Crisis</span></u></a></i> event, Atlantis was nearly destroyed by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectre_(comics)" title="Spectre (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Spectre</span></u></a>, and many of its citizens were transported to a Pocket Universe, called "The Ultraverse"; where Spectre revealed that his intention was to bring back Aquaman's son, and restore peace and honor to Atlantis, including Aquaman's second son, Koryak and his oldest friend, (and father figure), Vulko. Arthur Joseph Curry (Arthur Jr./Aquaman's son) led the survivors to Sub Diego in the hope that the two displaced peoples could help each other. When <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Manta" title="Black Manta"><u><span style="color: purple;">Black Manta</span></u></a> attacked the sunken city, Aquaman defeated him and left him for dead, he survived; and joined forces with Lex Luthor to destroy Aquaman & Superman, but Black Manta betrayed him and took LexCorp, and he took Lex's woman, made her his lover, and she bore a son; who will later grow up to replace him, as "Devil Ray" (Justice League: Unlimited) and try again to kill Aquaman and his family and fail, because of Aquaman's increasing powers & abilities (simular to Superman), during the course of his life he is rediscovering his aquatic, mystical, and untapped awesome abilities. To become the true "Savior" and Protector of Atlantis...<br />
Aquaman made a brief appearance at the memorial for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superboy_(Kon-El)" title="Superboy (Kon-El)"><u><span style="color: blue;">Superboy</span></u></a> in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></a></i>. With <i>Aquaman</i> (vol. 6) #40 (May 2006), the series was renamed <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> and taken in an entirely different direction by writers <u><span style="color: blue;">Kurt Busiek, Matt Choinaire, and Vic "The Iceman" Beckles</span></u>.<br />
<a href="about:blank" id="The_Missing_Year" name="The_Missing_Year"></a><br />
<h4><span class="mw-headline">The Missing Year</span></h4>During week 39 of the "missing year" depicted in the weekly comic book <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52_(comics)" title="52 (comics)"><i><u><span style="color: blue;">52</span></u></i></a>, <u><span style="color: blue;">Ralph Dibny</span></u>, seemingly accompanied by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Fate" title="Doctor Fate"><u><span style="color: blue;">Dr. Fate</span></u></a>'s helmet, meets a bearded, long-haired, and amnesic Orin in the ruins of Atlantis. The helmet portends that <i>"if he lives... <b>if</b> he lives... it is as a victim of the magicks of legend and the power of the sea"</i>.<br />
Orin was transformed into the Dweller of the Depths during Week 50 of <i>52</i> in the <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_III_(comics)" title="World War III (comics)"><u><span style="color: blue;">World War III</span></u></a></i> event. In a desperate bid to save the life of several <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub_Diego" title="Sub Diego"><u><span style="color: blue;">Sub Diego</span></u></a> inhabitants who have lost the ability to live in water, Orin makes a deal with the gods of the sea to gain the power to save them. Using the bones of his severed left hand in a magical ritual, the sea gods give Orin the power to raise Sub Diego onto dry land. However, Orin mutates into the <i>Dweller of the Depths</i> as a side effect of gaining his new abilities and loses his memories as a result. He is presumed dead in <i>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis</i> #50, and his son Arthur Joseph Curry officially becomes the new Aquaman (for only a brief moment in the DC Universe).<br />
The original Aquaman returns to life in his original costume, without a full explanation, in <i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Crisis" title="Final Crisis"><u><span style="color: blue;">Final Crisis</span></u></a></i> #7. All that is said is that he and his son (along with Garth & his Son Cerdian) was prophesied to return to Atlantis in his people's hour of greatest need (2010).<br />
<br />
The "Aquaman" movie trilogy, and upcoming Aquaman comic series (2011-Present): Will re-enforce all central concepts profiled on this website, and maintain the true legacy of Aquaman!!!<br />
