If Aquaman was written in the comics like he was in the animated Brave and the Bold series, I'd read the hell out of that bad boy.

that is all.

Agreed. 'Normal' Aquaman I couldn't care much less about. B&tB Aquaman, however, would make for a fun comic.

Shame DC doesn't seem to be using the reboot to pump that fun characterization into the comics version.

I love normal Aquaman, every variation of him, but B&B Aquaman is intensely entertaining. That same personality works very well over at Marvel on their Hercules comic, which is one of my favorites.

The first time I saw Aquaman on that show, I turned to my family and said, "Check it out! They finally gave him a personality!"

The OP's right -- he really should get his own book.

Set sail for ADVENTURE!

Adventure? OUTRAGEOUS!

One good thing of note is he frequently guest-appears in the "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" comic series (including the latest issue).

Nice to see I'm not the only one who thinks of Herc's personality too.

I'm pretty sure that the first time I heard that it came from you. You hit it right on the head.

I heard it from a podcast (The Legion of Substitute Podcasters).

I'd much rather see the outrageous AquaHerc over the regular DC Aquaman. John DiMaggio nails the voice on the show, and now I can't imagine Aquaman with any other voice.

There are some other decent potential personalities for Aquaman - I was intrigued when Morrison tried to get a "Clint Eastwood" Aquaman going around the time of "Final Crisis" (we get to see a panel of him that was meant to be a teaser for his return) - and found his story in "Brightest Night" by far the best.

However, yes, AquaHerc is pretty darn enticing. I know when I story post in the Fantasy Leagues it's been hard to not keep hearing that voice or writing him in that style. I may finally break down and do so next season. (Now that the Trinity are regaining their identities - I had them "regressed by the Time Trapper" to explain why I only had access to their secret ID's (the AE's) - I have the commanding role filled by Batman so Arthur doesn't need to stick with it. I think the Time Trapper regression may be a perfect excuse too as to why Arthur is acting different; he's just "growing up with a new personality" this time. )

It is a great version and I've always liked Aquaman.
Small things like the Sword of the Atom where he starts dressing Ryan Choi like a hero is awesome.

That sounds kind of dirty. Like cosplay is needed to excite him in the bedroom.

I do really love Brave and The Bold Aquaman. He's the best part of the show.

And I totally agree on the comic and Herc thing. I've read Hercules since his redebut on the Frank Tieri labors series, and haven't missed any since. He's just a fun character, and his bromance with Amadeus Cho was a thing of legend.

well, the Sword of the Atom is none too exciting on it's own...

When he mentioned the Sword of the Atom, I didn't know he meant the book, I thought he meant the Sword of the Atom.
