Line 9:
** In-universe Aquaman and Mera enjoy some sort of "floating reputation", being both described as useless mockery of heroes or as powerful beings on their own. See [[Memetic Badass]] and [[Memetic Mutation]].
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: The Trench. When you realize that we still have no idea just what lives in the bottom of the ocean, there's an equal chance that those things may or may not be real.
* [[The Problem with Licensed Games]]: "Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis" is universally considered one of the worst videogames ''ever'' created. So bad it even inspired its own special category for awful video games on gaming show X-Play: The "Golden Mullet Award."
* [[Rescued
** At least until ''Batman: The Brave and the Bold'' came around, in which <s> Aquaman</s> AQUAMAN ''actually manages to get fans'', he's even the freakin' [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]!
*** Don't you mean Ensemble Seahorse?
Line 16:
** He even uses [[Summon Bigger Fish]] to call forth ''[[Cthulhu]]''. [http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=oshgfp&s=5 Enjoy.]
** Recently, his resurrection in [[Brightest Day]] has resulted in {{spoiler|him saving children from pirates with Mera by summoning undead sea monsters.}} So perhaps getting rescued again.
** The [[Smallville]] version even got a pilot for a live action television spin-off after the numbers for the fifth season revealed that his debut episode was the most watched episode of the season.
** Really, Aquaman's been a pretty solid character since the late seventies, it's just that nobody notices because people think it's funnier to remember him from Super Friends. Try picking up the classic [http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Aquaman:_Death_of_a_Prince Jim Aparo run] sometime, it's awesome.
** The first issue of the recent Aquaman reboot seems to have this as its goal: it mostly involves Aquaman being [[Badass]] and addresses a lot of common misconceptions about him.
