Aquaman

lolAquaman. Haven't brought myself to read him yet, mostly because of my bias that usually involves lols. Because really. He talks to fish. He could be more awesome because hey, invulnerable and stuff! But Get him on land without a fish bowl and... fail. Namor kicks his ass. Hell, Aqua Lad scored better on Atlantean powers than the King himself did. This is a reboot, so they really could have given him a chance and FINALLY done better by his powers AND by that godawful costume. One of the things that bugged me at the end of JL was the big discourse on the redesign of costumes where Aquaman and others actually got some cool looks, but they were just too "complicated" so sucks to be you, Aquaman. Back to the fish scales.

For the record, I think DC pretty much hates Aquaman. In DCU Online, he's part of the hero storyline, but you actually have to kick his ass. Everyone else gets glory or helps you out, or you have to rescue them, but Aquaman you have to beat up because he's been ensorcled by Circe and keeps summoning giant lobsters to eat you.
