Aquaman II (Arthur Joseph Curry)


Queen Mera

The wife of Aquaman, her origins have ranged from being the Queen of Dimension Aqua to being the princess of a separatist colony of Atlanteans. Nevertheless, she is a capable ruler and fighter, often assisting her husband in fighting for protection of the sea.


Aqualad I/Tempest (Garth)

  • Nice Guy
  • Purple Eyes
  • Trauma Conga Line: Following Infinite Crisis, Garth was turned into an albino and rendered powerless, and his wife and son were missing. Recently, he was restored to normal, only to learn Dolphin and Cerdian were both dead since Infinite Crisis. Was named King of Atlantis and then killed by Black Lantern Aquagirl (his ex-girlfriend) during Blackest Night, turning him into a Black Lantern.
  • Word of God: Has it that a number of higher-ups at DC did not like Tempest. And the reason why was that, he upgraded his abilities to include magical powers, but he wasn't a "badass" in the same sense as nearly every other hero in the DCU. Yeah.


Aqualad II (Kaldur'ahm/Jackson Hyde)


Aquagirl (Tula)

  • Action Girl


Enemies

Black Manta (David)

  • Arch Enemy
  • Card-Carrying Villain: "Y'see, deep down, in my most secret heart of hearts, I'm still a totally depraved sonuvabitch whose main goal in life is to watch you die. Slowly and painfully. Just like your kid."
  • Freudian Excuse: Post-Flashpoint, Geoff Johns has given him one. Aquaman thought Black Manta killed his father, Tom Curry, when Manta attacked Arthur in order to get a sample of his blood for Dr. Shin, and Tom intervened. So, in revenge, Arthur killed Black Manta's father. It turned out Tom Curry suffered a heart attack and died in a hospital three days after he the attack.
  • Ruthless Modern Pirates: He's a submarine pirate
  • Scary Black Man
  • The Sociopath
  • Would Hurt a Child: It's his major claim to fame among supervillains.
  • You Killed My Father: Post-Flashpoint, Aquaman killed Manta's father in a fit of revenge.


Ocean Master (Orm)

  • Cain: To Aquaman's Abel.
  • Evil Prince: Orin's jealous brother, Orm, aka the Ocean Master; though in some continuities Orm is merely his bitter human half-brother and has no royal blood.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: He despises Arthur for taking the throne. This was also the motivation for the traitorous Captain Rodunn in Rick Veitch's 2003 run, but he repented after Aquaman saved his life.
