Sun, Aug 23
Jimmy Palmiotti: It just hit me one day that if would be an interesting thing to do and I grew up on the Super Friends Aquaman, not the royal sometimes entitled Aquaman...so given this chance, I thought...what would Aquaman really be like if he were real, and what would he be acting like and so I work...

TAS: I was going to say, Aquaman does remind me a lot of Prince Vultan.
I have always liked his visual and think he's right up there with Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman as an iconic superhero. Everyone knows Aquaman on sight whether they've read his comic books or not.

JMS: Yes, and Aquaman was right toward the top of the list, which is why he's there fairly early in the run. Some of the other, still-forthcoming team-ups I presented to DC included Atom and the Joker, Adam Strange and Lois Lane, Green Lantern/Dr. Fate, The Legion of Superheroes and the Doom P...

Just when I think I've seen every Aquaman item there is to see...
As you can see, Aquaman was a bit of an afterthought on the packaging: Superman's logo couldn't be any bigger, and poor Aquaman has to settle for his name being in plain text.

(in AquaSketch by Joe Quinones - 2009)
I wasn't that familiar with Joe's work until I saw it in Wednesday Comics, where Joe drew the Green Lantern strip. I thought it was beautiful stuff, modern but retro (my favorite combo!), and when I saw him on the guest list of the con he was one of the people I planned to see.

(in Aquatic Justice by Kevin Smith)
In this clip, they talk almost entirely about Aquaman. They poke a lot of fun, but at least in some different ways than we usually hear. I like the animation--its like Aquaman swam into an episode of Ren & Stimpy.
I'm in the Justice League, bitches."

(in Aqua Poll Results #1)
We concluded our first Aqua Poll today, and the question was: Where would you like to see Aquaman return? Here's how you voted (169 of you, anyway):
A vast majority of you went for Aquaman in his own solo title again (which, by my count, would be Aquaman Volume Eight), while the next highest v...

(in The Tale of The Aquaman Patch)
I came across your blog on a Google search for "Aquaman patch". I have a denim jacket that for around twenty years now, I've been adding classic Justice League characters--Hawkman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Flash, Atom, Martian Manhunter...I have everyone...except Aquaman.

Anyway, he thought it would be a good idea for his Aquaman action figure to go diving with me this weekend. I'm sending along some photos of the results. Two photos show Aquaman patrolling his watery domain while the other two show him battling a mutant sea creature (played by a Crown-of-Thor...

This is yet another DC Superhero wristwatch, and the box it comes in, sent to me this time by our newest F.O.A.M. member Luis Carrillo.
In any case, I like this one a lot, since it features Aquaman so prominently, plus Green Arrow and Hawkman, other favorite characters of mine that still don't app...

Aquaman guest-stars again in Wednesday Comics!
I admit, I was getting a bit impatient, waiting for Aquaman to show up in the Hawkman strip, but now I see Baker was saving it for the big finale, which is the next issue, Wednesday Comics' last (*sniff*). It was worth it!

These PJs feature a beautiful Aquaman piece by Neal Adams, originally produced for the 1976 DC Comics Calendar and used in other places. Interesting treatment of the logo--its the standard Aquaman font, but the letters are put on a flat line instead of their usual curve. I think this is the o...

It was a custom-made, 16-page Aquaman pop-up book, telling the story of how Aquaman and Mera are on their way to a birthday party in my honor, when they are stopped by Ocean Master.
So, Rob Kelly, I know I'm not the only one out here who loves what you do. Here's hoping we have many, many years of ce...

Welcome to the conclusion of The Aquaman Shrine Casting Call Contest!
Next up: Mera!

and even though I didn't ask for this, Sage Ricci blew my mind casting Aquaman's trusted friend Vulko with...Ricky Gervais!:

She drew Superman and the Flash, and then just the Flash. I asked that, the next time she was taking commissions, could someone hand her the orange and green crayons? Little I did know, that just a few days later, the above masterpiece would arrive in my mailbox, an original Aquaman by the art...

The other two-packs in this line are Batman Vs. Kanjar Ro, Plastic Man and Blue Beetle, and Batman and Red Tornado. There's also a six-pack available, featuring an exclusive Gentleman Ghost figure.
Its quite possible, when all is said and done, Brave and the Bold will do more for Aquaman than...
