deep beneath the waves of the Atlantic ocean. His abilities included swimming
under water without the need for artificial oxygen support (his Atlantean blood
enables him to derive his air supply directly from the water) and the ability to
telepathically communicate with all the creatures of the ocean. Aquaman reigned
as Lord of the sunken city of Atlantis with his wife Mera and his ward, Aqualad.
Occasionally, Aquaman visited the surface world in the guise of human Arthur
Curry. However, because he derived most of his strength from the sea, his visits
had to remain very brief.
NOTE: Created by Mort Weisinger and Paul Norris,
Aquaman first appeared in the 1941 comic book More Fun No. 73. Aquaman premiered
on television as part of the animated superhero series The Superman-Aquaman Hour
produced by Filmation Studios.
