I decided to read this because I realized Aquaman is the only one of the original JLA whose characterization I'm not really familiar with.

Ah yes, the unforgettable story of how Aquaman tried to fuck a dolphin when he was a horny teenager.

Also great write-up PAD did on his Aquaman run with a lot of very juicy tidbits:

So... are we talking Dolphin the character, or, like, an actual fucking dolphin?

This was three years after Atlantis Chronicles, where PAD established Aquaman's modern mythos.

I haven't read that either but my understanding is that doesn't focus much on Arthur as a character.

An actual fucking dolphin
No, I'm not joking

Well, I suppose that could be said to be illuminating on Arthur's character...

...

Is there more of an absolute madman than the Trickster?

Not counting the Madmen of course.

>Speaking of sharks, I consider them to be one of my few true successes with the series. Everyone loved the way I depicted sharks: Big, dumb bruisers with a short term memory of about twenty seconds, and no interest beyond sustenance. A typical shark moment was a shark cruising along with the following word balloon: “Food. Food. Food. Food. Food. Hello, Aquaman. Food. Food. Food.” In their doofiness, they were almost loveable. It was a stark contrast to the rep of “evil monsters of the deep” they’d had since Jaws, and somehow it felt right.

So Aquaman seems to be a bit of a dick here.

Probably the Aquaman I'm most familiar with in terms of characterization is the one from JLA Year One, who has some similar aspects to this one so far but is definitely more of a nice or shy fellow.

And here we have the Trickster's Magical Mystery Tour, step right this way

Well, looks like a preview of what's coming up in Rebirth Aquaman

Quit aquasplaining, Arthur

Ironically WB is now trying to push GL as the lame one with the dumb Family Guy jokes. At least in LEGO Batman.

Time for dolphin porn

...

Kinda weird when you think about it, that a species evolved specifically to spend most of its time holding its breath.

Do they sell dolphin milk in Atlantis?

Texas user, I blame you for the image of Peter Cullen as a cowboy being stuck in my head.

Thanks for all the fish

If I were Peter Cullen, the first thing I'd do is ask DC if I could voice Swamp Thing.

Hoo boy.

This dolphin is a total Chad

Even with the pretty nonsensical story about Arthur trying to shag with a dolphin, this run is pretty dope, I remember liking it a lot back then.

Cool middle school poem, Arthur.

Tula ;_;

So now we skipped where Arthur finds out he's Atlantean?

I feel like I've missed a lot here.

Isn't she still around post-Flashpoint?

She is now. It's good to have her back.

This art reminds me a little bit of Jill Thompson. I like it.

Garth looks oddly cartoony though.
