If so, this scene actually makes perfect sense, as the K-radiation has clearly fried Aquaman II's brain beyond recognition.<BR/><BR/>Actually, could I get some Cliff Chiang on my Aquaman, but hold the Azzarello?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-59371631769634314862008-01-28T13:33:00.000-05:002008-01-28T13:33:00.000-05:00Azzarello."Well, we've talked about Aquaman.

I guess the author is trying to make the point that Superman shouldn't be quite so comfortable, and that perhaps it would be handy to have a way to take him out if he gets mind-controlled or something, but still...you'd think that Aquaman would WANT to have that big ol' chunk of radioactive rock OUT of his backyard. Besides, you know that Batman is keeping a tiny little bit of Kyptonite hidden away...just in case.<BR/><BR/>It's too Marvel-ish. One of the reasons, I barely read Marvel anymore, is that practically all of my former heroes are unpleasant obnoxious morons. Aquaman's a hero! Let him act like one!<BR/><BR/>Sheesh!SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-25482329829531966402008-01-28T09:15:00.000-05:002008-01-28T09:15:00.000-05:00Superman/Batman stopped making sense years ago (th...Superman/Batman stopped making sense years ago (the comic book, I mean).

Shouldn't they have gotten the hang of self-government by now? Shouldn't they be at least as progressed as the US?<BR/><BR/>Or maybe the UK is closer to what I mean. Arthur should be more like a fair-haired figurehead. That way, he can be off doing his own thing most of the time and only return to Atlantis on the (rare) occasions when they <I>really</I> need him.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and thank you, Scipio, for perfectly capturing why I didn't like this comic. <I>It didn't make any sense.</I> I, too, only picked this one up because it had AJ in it (actually, King Shark), and was very disappointed.<BR/><BR/>Is this series even in-continuity?Derekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326906935557548236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-68598139406711014772008-01-27T19:08:00.000-05:002008-01-27T19:08:00.000-05:00Thank you for reminding me of when I actually used...Thank you for reminding me of when I actually used to watch Adult Swim; I just wish they aired the one where Aquaman got his groove on in front of a Little League game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
