Aquaman (AKA Arthur Curry AKA Orin) is a [[DC Comics]] [[Superhero]] with water-based powers. He's probably [[Ink Stain Adaptation|best known for his]] ''[[Superfriends]]'' appearances, the [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?|lame nature]] of that version's powers and the fact that he is in practically every episode, whether this makes sense or not ("What's that? Trouble in the desert? Come on team, we haven't a moment to lose! And let's bring Aquaman with us; his ability to breathe underwater and talk to fish are ''sure'' to be useful there!"). In essence, having him take part in anything whatsoever was sort of the super-powered equivalent to [[Pity Sex]]. |

Aquaman's powers have varied over the years; in all incarnations, he is mainly known for his ability to breathe underwater, swim at high speeds and communicate with sea life. He also often has something to do with [[The DCU]]'s version of [[Atlantis]]. |

'''History''' |
|||
Aquaman originated in [[The Golden Age of Comic Books]]. He first appeared in ''More Fun Comics'' #73 (November, 1941). He was created by Paul Norris and Mort Weisinger. In his earliest appearances, Aquaman was also [[Super Strength|strong]] and [[Nigh Invulnerable|durable]] enough to deflect an artillery shell one-handed and outswim a torpedo. His powers were at first said to be [[Charles Atlas Superpower|the result of special training]], but were later described as the result of his scientist father experimenting on him. Rather than communicating with sea creatures telepathically, he could speak with them "in their own language". |
