It's so silly. If they're in the middle of some big city fighting a bad guy, what good is it to be able to talk to a bunch of fish out in the ocean somewhere? Or does he talk to the fresh water fish at that point? Fish in the tanks in people's apartments?
I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yeah, at least Namor had the advantage of being (a) super strong (b) nigh-invulnerable (c) capable of flight (d) a real arrogant prick.

I actually work down the street from Midtown Comics here, I need to check it out.
Boy, does this make me envious. One of the best stores in the country. My retailer is such a moron, he hasn't even set up any Hellboy promotions to tie in with the upcoming movie. And he just moved his store RIGHT NEXT TO A MOVIE THEATER about 9 months ago. It boggles the mind.

Someone upthread wanted to know if Lex knew that Clark was Superman. Lex discovered (or "rediscovered", if you want to get technical) the Clark was Superman a bit after he became President, in Superman #178. I suspect, but don't know the details, that this knowledge was short-lived. I'll have to dig to find out the details.

I've been in there before with my husband. We were hunting for Fray, I think.
So, after all this Aquaman talk, it looks like he's part of the main storyline on Justice League tonight. I'm so there. Maybe I can learn to love him. Someone should, right?

That would be the Sub-Mariner, right?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
That would be the Sub-Mariner, right?
Yup.

Okay, I know it's a rerun. But when Lex unhinges... it's a beautiful thing.

Quoting myself, but yeah. This isn't going to happen. Don't like the outfit, he's still silly, and I don't dig blondes as a general rule. I'm totally crushing on Wonderwoman though. Yowza.

Agreed. When he looks up at Clark after he sees him smoosh the car? Gah. And I get some sick satisfaction out of seeing him backhand Lionel every time.

And he's so coldblooded and angry. Rowr.

I have a plan.
Yeah, at least Namor had the advantage of being (a) super strong (b) nigh-invulnerable (c) capable of flight (d) a real arrogant prick.
Now come on, both of them can be considered arrogent. But maybe that's the perception, they are both of royal blood. And Aquaman isn't a slouch in the (a) and (b) departments either.
edit: That's based on what I've read of those characters through other titles.
