He's no Sub-Mariner. But he's alright. I much prefer short haired, clean cut, regular handed version with the orange shirt though. Just for the sake of this thread, I'd like to point out that Aquaman defeated Sub-Mariner in a fight. Some might even say it was a squash.  I'll concede that point, but that doesn't make me think Arthur is a more interesting character than Namor. I like 'em both, but I'll always skew toward Sub-mariner in terms of interest level. |

I don't think that Aquaman has to be permanently trapped in the stereotype. People just have to forget about his Superfriends past which can be done with the magic of Doublethink. Nope, it will never happen. Just like Batman still used the Anti Penguin Gas pills in The Dark Knight. |

Yeah, Superfriends pretty much killed Aquaman in most peoples eyes even though he isn't a terrible character. However, at least he is better dressed then his Marvel counterpart.

Or dressed at all, for that matter. Namor rocked a banana hammock for the longest time. Not sure if he still does or not. Last time I saw him he'd switched to long tights. |

God, Namor rocked a green speedo. In no way should that be subjected onto people. |

Casey Jones? Nobody understands cricket! You gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket? Casey Jones just made this thread indefinitely better. |

What annoys me is that no-one can agree on how to draw him. Sometimes he has the orange shirt, sometimes he doesn't. Sometimes he's bearded and has long hair, sometimes he isn't. And this is in parallel, simultaneous comics. It's annoying as hell.
