Okay. The Slow-Mo walk actually emabarassed me. It felt like every individual was watching over my shoulder the instant that scene was displayed. I wanted to beat everyone responsible for producing that moment within an inch of their death before blowing them up and walking away slowly
It's also hilarious that the Lab just happened to be by the docks so Aquaman could swim in and then..um..............well they never showed what he did.
Theres acting? The few episodes I've seen make porno actors come off as a deep.
Thats a bit harsh really, I've seen a number of episodes and I do enjoy them on some embarrasing level. Though the majority of each show has me rolling my eyes or wondering what I should be doing with my precious time here on earth beside wasting it on this crap.
To be honest if it wasn't for John Glover I wouldn't watch. Period. That guy is awesome, remember the old show Brimestone where he was the devil? That rocked.
So did Cyborg actually have any cyborg parts?
From the picture, he just looks like he's got really bad fashion sense, which isn't much of a superpower even though it is shared by just about everyone who wears a cape.
I don't actually watch the show though. I tried in the past, and quickly came to the conclusion that it just wasn't for me.
Cyborg's had all his internals removed and enhanced, but still has all the fleshy exterior, so yeah, he has cyborg parts.
J'onn had a super small cameo like 4 episodes ago when Clark goes to seattle or someplace chasing after an escaped bad guy from the phantom zone. Clark is down by the docks at night and losing when something moves fast and out of no where the bad guy dies and has a weird hand print on his chest (where J'onn phased through and killed him). Clark turns around looking for him and steps on an Oreo laying on the ground. He walks towards the water and sees J'onn who doesnt say anything and then flys up into the night and then turns and zooms away with a streak of red glowy stuff in his wake.
J'onn's looks obviously don't matter much what with all the shapeshifting. In that little 1 minute of screentime they at least had him as powerful as he should be.

Aquaman was-
Originally Arthur Curry (not Orin), son of a fisherman who found a book of spells enabling his son to have water powers -(golden age)
He could swim fast and undesrtand fish
Then became Arthur Curry, son of a lighthouse keeper who got to third base with an Atlantean. He was just a human with Atlantean blood.
He could swim fast and now communicate with fish, this also is the Aqyuaman you see in Justice league.
After the Crisis on infinte Earths and his mini-series in the 1986's, they toook everything away and slapped on Namor´s story. He now was
-an exiled Atlantean prince who was raised by a human (Namor was that in the 40s),
-chose to live with the Atlanteans and rule them (again, Namor did that in the 40s)
-was the leader of Atlantis in several surface people vs atlantean struggles and small wars (Namor was fighting the Nazis in the 40s, then in the 60 turned against the americans)
-Suddenly not only could he talk to fish, he now could command them 100% (like Namor) and had super strenght (like Namor)
Now with the latest series, DC is trying again to retcon, now making him human again, but still the ruler of Atlantis. I´m liking that he´s closer to the real Aquaman, but if they make him fly or give him electrical powers, I´ll gladly stop reading DC comics.
EDIT:
Namor first appeared, Atlantean prince and all in "Motion Picture Funnies Weekly, April 1939"
Aquaman´s first appearance was More Fun Comics # 73 (November, 1941)
The lame "Orin" Namor story-ripoff started with the four-issue Aquaman (Feb 1986-May 1986)
-Suddenly not only could he talk to fish, he now could command them 100% (like Namor) and had super strenght (like Namor)
Aquaman's always had telepathy. And the super strength is because he lives in the fucking ocean depths. His body resists the incredible pressure, so of course he's stronger than humans.
Well, I'm pretty sure Namor did come first but other than that, I dunno.
Mr. Fantastic is an Enlogated Man ripoff
Elongated Man is a Plastic Man ripoff
Im talking story. The story of Aquaman that was changed into an exact duplicate of Namor´s story.
Lets see Namor (1939 onwards)= exiled prince of Atlantis with superstrenght and the ability to control fish, raised by humans, later becomes king and leads Atlantis against surface world several times.
Now post-crisis Aquaman (1986 onwards)= exiled prince of Atlantis with superstrenght and the ability to control fish, raised by humans, later becomes king and leads Atlantis against surface world several times.
And funnily, before Crisis, Aquaman was just a kid raised by a dude and could talk to fishes.
DC´s post-crisis Aquaman was published in 1986 with exactly the same plot and backstory as Namor´s, so thats why I say Aquaman today = Namor ripoff.
If Marvel should change Captain America to a guy that comes from another planet, crashes onto earth, is raised by farmers, dons a cape and flies and lifts stuff, the same opinion would hold.
Lets see Namor (1939 onwards)= exiled prince of Atlantis with superstrenght and the ability to control fish, raised by humans, later becomes king and leads Atlantis against surface world several times.

That's some nice story right there. Try not acting or typing like a retard and maybe people might take you seriously!
Nine months later, a pink-skinned child was born among the blue-skinned Atlanteans. He was raised in Atlantis, and when he matured would alternate between living there and adventuring in the oceans and on the surface.
As a feral child who raised himself in the wilds of the ocean with only sea creatures to keep him company, Orin was found and taken in by a lighthouse keeper named Arthur Curry who named Orin "Arthur Curry" after himself.
And when has Aquaman led Atlantis against the surface world?
1- I was referring to the original Namor concept (thus the 1939 - tag), not the Byrne series. Namor get raised by humans and atlanteans, and lives in both worlds, but Marvel wrote that off the Timely origin by saying Human Torch found him with amnesia and didnt remember his past well.
2- On Aquaman- In the Peter David run he threatened to do so and had a force prepared, but was dissuated. In the Superman animated series, he launched an attack, but Superman talked him out of it. JLA animated "The Enemy Below", he acually goes to the UN and demands a surrender a surrender.

And that's the only reason I've ever tuned in, but now that it's opposite Earl, The Office, Scrubs (it sucks now), and 30 Rock I never watch.

They generally play high school rock when Clark gets some red Kryptonite up ins and goes all bad-boy.
Anally.
He can swim really fast and breathe under water. He might be strong too (I forget), but that's about it.

Anyone watch the Aquaman pilot that was rejected?

Pity that they didnt accept it, it wouldve been great, Atlantis vs Surface world, even though today´s retconned Aquaman is just a moody Namor rip-off (although DC is trying to change that, thankfully).

I used to like Smallville but they jumped pretty far over that shark when Lana was possessed by a medival witch.
How is Aquaman a Namor ripoff?
I think he means that they can both swim. :roll:

Frankly, I've never really got on with any of the Aqua-man/Namor incarnations.
Although Ultimate Namor is quite compelling, despite being an ass (which is mostly because, you know, it's the Ultimate-U).
Anally.
Namor is always an ass. Always. If he's just kind of an ass in Ultimate U, then he actually might be nicer.
And J'onn is going to be in it from what I read in TV guide.
Be honest. You just don't want to admit that there was a time when shitty Superfriends Aquaman was not only relevant, he was STANDARD.
I have no problem admitting it. Just like how Robin was "gay" until Jason Todd died
Exactly. Man, what a bat-fag.
Anally.
I thought that was Captain Marvel, the oreo being a reference to the fact that it was a kid. I don't read a lot of, or really any DC though.
