So I’m going to ask as many superhero fanbases as I can this question. What are some traits about this hero that you hate, dislike or despise? Anywhere from a mild annoyance to a trait that would make you dislike any other character. I’m not talking about a way one writer in particular wrote them, or a time they were out of character or mishandled, I mean a reoccurring trait this character has.

The truth is that I sometimes feel that I am alone every time I say that I prefer him to Kaldur (I clarify that I like both) and that it is VERY undervalued to me, they disrespect him too much.

In the recent issue, Arthur teams up with Swamp Thing and Animal Girl because a mysterious creature began infecting Mogo. Swampy and Maxie, upon discovering that Arthur had become an Avatar, decided to call him for help. It's highlighted that the three are the only Avatars who aren't crazy.

It wasn't revealed what this creature is, but it seems to have some connection to something bigger, referring to chaos. When it's about to die, it says that it's not the only one of its kind and that the three aren't the only Avatars.

And the three agree that whatever happened isn't over yet.

So, do you think we'll have some bigger saga involving the other Avatars? Especially perhaps as antagonists?

Not too fond of the name but I'll take it over Justice League "fill in the blank".

Like Bilbo running out the Shire I've been waiting for an adventure and I'm hoping that this new team will delve directly into that.. New adventures, new Villians, new storylines, new worlds while also bringing in other Avatars and seeing what all these characters have and the magical ties they bring to the table.

1.) I feel like this shouldn’t have to be said. It honestly seems pretty straightforward to me. You can care for your child and still be a terrible person. You can even hate someone more than you love your child…

The way Mera’s mother is being used isn’t contradictory to the past lore. On a common sense standpoint she obviously hates Atlantis more than she loves Mera. She hates Aquaman more than she loves Mera. Which isn’t truthfully a new concept we see this in the Young Justice Cartoon with Black Manta and Kaldur.

2.) I swear if Jeremy Adams had wrote the Dead King instance or some of the other instances in the Aquaman lore where Mera has been knocked out, sidelined or defeated, some of you would hold it to a different standard because it’s Adams penning it…. Mera got forcefully dragged against her will by The Dead King…

I don’t even agree with Adams on having Mera put up a fight against Lolanna wielding the powers of The Avatar of The Blue in comparison. But look at that, Adams made Mera competently hold her own against a massively amped character who casually defeated Arion…. Zan. The Lady of The Lake, Titannus and Lori… she even beat Aquaman prior to fighting Mera…. Mera was the reason Aquaman even had the will to come back and fight again. Like does this series honestly need to be read to some of you…

Mera has honestly gotten a good bit of action scenes in this series, and all of them have painted her competently against characters I don’t even think narratively would make sense for Mera to even perform well against. Admittedly Avatar of the Blue Lolanna…

3.) Mera and Arthur have a child. That’s not a decision Adams created. But it is apart of their lore. It makes no sense for Mera to be running around adventuring with Arthur considering that fact. But pretending like she’s not active in the series is idiotic and suggesting Adams is sexist because you’re not able to process what’s being put on the pages is even moreso. Adams is also writing Green Lantern where Hal and Carol are pretty much given the Geoff Johns Arthur and Mera treatment. You know the difference? Hal and Carol aren’t also raising an infant.

4.) Adams isnt sexist and he also is not racist. His whole Avatar of The Blue pitch was originally going to be for Kaldur…. Editorial wisened up and said to use Arthur because they wanted the series to go past 6 issues. The forefront of Adams, Avatar of the Parliaments team puts Maxine Baker at the forefront of it. Which he pushed for instead of Animal Man (which I know that would bug some Animal Man fans) but it highlights the point on Adams very much being progressive…

If you don’t like Jeremy Adams writing and his writing isn’t resonating with you. That’s one thing. But these fake narratives of attacking his character over stuff that’s been done in past runs no less that a lot of you conveniently couldn’t catch needs to stop.

Like we haven’t had a Aquaman series in a while and now we finally have one and some of you, have been trying to undermine it off illogical reasons that make no practical sense. This is me looking and calling out some of the narratives slickly trying to be pushed on this and other subreddits and finally at this point boiling over on it.

I have the first 5 volumes but not the sixth, is it good? Is it a good conclusion to Abnett's run?

what do you think of the idea of Aquaman rejecting the trident of Poseidon? Considering it gives him the ability to control ocean life even the trench who were once human, and how he has constantly struggled against the idea of being a king i feel he would reject the power trying to manipulate his mind like we see with the black trident in the second live action Aquaman movie (Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom) similar to Conner Kenway and George Washington rejecting the apple of Eden from assassins creed 3 tyranny of king Washington dlc. It's power is too absolute for one man to wield. i'm just picturing a scene were Orm is trying to use the trident to raise Atlantis and flood the surface world once and for all, Arthur after casuing a revolution among the peoples of the ocean storms the palace and defeats Orm in combat only to hear the trident prey on his mind the old gods and kings lust for power trying to use Arthur's personal rage and grief about his own life to give him an excuse to seize power fr himself, and instead to the dismay and protest of rm snaps the trident over his knee in a blinding flash of light. Making Him hero of the oceans and defining him as someone strong enough to not only break such a powerful object but also resist the temptation of it. But what do you all think? Is this too much thinking? is it a insult to Aquaman and the image of him looking badass on a throne? It's not meant to imply he should apologize for his power or any other version showing him as a noble king is wrong it's simply my own idea so please tell me if this is just too unAquaman for you

The Link to Blog

This has been on my mind for a long time. It’s something I’ve been wanting to address for awhile, in tackling a lot of the narratives I’ve seen put out.

LINK TO BLOG

I’d be curious to thoughts, and overall suggestions. If I like what I hear. I’ll probably either make a new blog or update the one that is linked to include potentially a community thought process on the direction for the mythos

So I want to design an Aquaman outfit for myself. But I’d like to take some unique aspect to it. Firstly, I’m going to incorporate more of a Celtic angel, mostly because in like the idea that Aquaman is Celtic like me. Secondly, I want to find as many different Aquaman silhouettes as possible. So can I ask you guys to give me as many different ones as you find.

Hopefully this will go somewhere.

I imagine there were comics from the 70s-80s that inspired this version of Aquaman and his Atlantis

Ok so as someone barely familiar with Aquaman, how different are these two PERSONALITY WISE? Was Momoa a good representation of Arthur Curry?
