Once upon a time we had a gentleman here who thought Aquaman was not only cool, but was the bees-knees. He was given this as punishment.  Aquaduck! |

Namor's alright. it's just that Black Adam is better at being Namor than Namor is (seriously, not enough people make note of how similar they are). it comes up when every "cast a comic movie" discussion comes up, because every one wants Dwayne Johnson to play them both And I guess he is playing Adam now. he used a ninja whale once! |

I always have thought Billy Zane would make a good Namor.

The Super Powers series was awesome. They regularly battled my Secret Wars figures.

Indeedly-doodly. ;D In a complete sign of immaturity, I had Aquaman bone my X-23 action figure (given to me as a gag birthday gift, as my buddies know I hate X-23). |

Aquaman is already cool. Read something like issues 13 and 14 of his last series to see how to have him written well.

As a kid, I did a storyline ( yup I didn't just play with em, I had stuff way more elaborate than necessary) where I placed Dr. Doom inside a 'chamber' ( which I think was just a Barrel o'Monkeys barrel or something) and left him there for a week, literally I decided a week was the time he needed to be in that barrel, and seven days I didn't touch him, and then I had Captain America and them find him and the barrel exploded and he became Darkseid and wrecked the heroes. I had my own special continuity.
Then there was also the time in the mid eighties I got the black suited Spidey, I already had the red n blue classic one, so I decided black suited Spidey was a evil, bigger stronger version.
Looking back, I shoulda written that one down.

"Yeah, that's it, a big, strong, EVIL Spider-Man, in all black! That's a great idea! I need to give him a name, though...wait, I got it! I'll call him...POISON!" ;D

Here's how you make him cool. Turn him into a woman and give him giant knockers.

Great minds I guess. Edit: yeah Black Widow was taken too, but I was like eight, MAYBE ten. |

Namor's alright. it's just that Black Adam is better at being Namor than Namor is (seriously, not enough people make note of how similar they are). Oh, no doubt about it; it's all true. People forget that Aquaman has super-strength due to living in deep ocean depths. The problem with Aquaman is that even though the earth is 70% water, over 90% of all relevant human activity takes place somewhere on the 30% land it has. |
