If the fish jokes were wearing thin, maybe editorial should've re-classed him as originating from a more science-magickal tradition. He & Mera would've been good company for Buddy Baker & Alec Holland, back in the day...<br /><br />Or maybe they did exactly that and I was too busy reading Ambush Bug & 'Mazing Man to notice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-5008365220642597542011-12-28T19:49:15.861-08:002011-12-28T19:49:15.861-08:00I have to wonder about Ares/Wonder Woman given the...I have to wonder about Ares/Wonder Woman given the Ares/Xena thing. I mean, I realize Ares was a WW foil long before Xena, but this repetition seems somewhat awkward.Glenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01028405980321902568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-9054333639323112812011-12-27T18:07:50.278-08:002011-12-27T18:07:50.278-08:00I got into a rather inane argument with another co...I got into a rather inane argument with another comic fan on another site because I took issue with DC's seemingly casual relationship with cold-blooded murder. He thought I was being an immature baby. I thought violence for the sake of violence was puerile and sophomoric. I'm glad to see that you agree, Caleb.matthew.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17785443003038077519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-27581662797885164952011-12-27T16:45:04.942-08:002011-12-27T16:45:04.942-08:00I don't like Kaz-Ar Aquaman.

He's like Wolverine in scales. I admit to having a soft spot for Aquaman (when he's done right), but I'm just really confused by this whole treatment. Why is he a laughingstock if he kicks this much behind?JohnFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09339402431610031589noreply@blogger.com
