Maybe they had it on Earth 2.<br /><br />It's very interesting how well this tale plays out despite the the absence of the superhero suit. I might not have noticed if Rob hadn't pointed it out. Is this proof that Aquaman was so well defined as a character that he didn't need to depend on his suit as a crutch?<br /><br />Lastly, I can really see the influence of Mort Weisinger here. Wonder if he heavily re-wrote this one?<br /><br />James ChattertonUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15576083934906136102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-43251581720185923532012-06-10T23:12:34.905-04:002012-06-10T23:12:34.905-04:00Yep, no other possible way that could pick out whi...Yep, no other possible way that could pick out which one of the guys is Aquaman. No other way at all. It's not like anyone's ever seen his face or anything. Maybe when he's in his "civvies" he uses Wildroot Cream-Oil and that's what throws everyone off.Joseph Brian Scottnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-24898412128667540002012-06-10T12:01:43.470-04:002012-06-10T12:01:43.470-04:00I love that Aquaman owns a suit and buys his newsp...I love that Aquaman owns a suit and buys his newspapers on the corner, probably from Newsie Christian Bale.Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03712278452970289276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-85696244348911270862012-06-10T10:01:02.829-04:002012-06-10T10:01:02.829-04:00Fortunately, female readers, plus (now openly) gay...Fortunately, female readers, plus (now openly) gay men, still like the Sea King! :-) (Do recall AfterElton, the site dedicated to covering LGBT folk in media, occasionally mentioning Aquaman, particularly when "Smallville" was on...)<br /><br />Re: Superboy: The plot: Superboy tries to save Prof. Lang's reputation after he claims to have seen a roc, a dragon, and a griffin on an expedition.
