The Brave & the Bold No. 142 Cover by Jim Aparo
In recent years, it’s become fashionable to mock Aquaman. But you really shouldn’t. He can dive to the bottom of the oceans. He has telepathic control of the creatures of the sea. And he’s no slouch in a fight.
Back in the 1970s – before Batman became nigh-on invincible – he’d end up in situations like this one. Having his ass handed to him like a lobster in a trap by the son of a fisherman and an Atlantean.
