    My favorite Black Manta moment is in Brightest Day when it shows that after the death of Aquaman he'd retired from supervillainy to run a fish market. But after he finds out Aquaman is back from the dead, he murders everyone in his shop, burns it down, and walks into the ocean to start being a villain again. Dude fucking hates Aquaman.

    The Paul Yeah, for 2 reasons 1: The 5 year gap. It would have been better if maybe during season 2 they showed what happened in the 5 year gap. 2: To many characters, if they followed the same formula as season 1 where each character was slowly introduced, then it wouldn't have been so bad

    Season 2 had a mini comic that explained many of the events during the 5year gap.But the tv show could of done a better job at it.Yea I found they added way to many characters just for fanfare.But it easily could of went another way if they gave it another chance

    Exactly, most people think that if they watch the show, then they don't have to read the comics. I bet that if Cartoon Network gave the show a reboot. Then it probably would be awesome, just get as many different voice actors so that so many of the same people won't voice to many characters.

    LOL! Not only that, but is currently going through more s h i t in his Rebirth series. He recently got arrested because he was falsely accused for leading a group of rogue Atlanteans to blow up a ship. Not only that, but he is trying to be a diplomat and unite the surface world and underwater world with peace, and he just is not getting much luck for it. Oh, and Black Manta blew up the Atlantean Embassy and killed multiple people, and he still gets s h i t from the US government for it. Poor, poor guy.

Can you imagine an angry soul from Baltimore MD, discussing the Freddie Gray case with his peaceful-minded father (Uncle Ben) on a boat in Chesapeake Bay who dies "accidentally' from the hands an Atlantean soldier. Vowing revenge; David graduates college, building his armored suit (a laTony Stark) with a sole purpose to eliminate the Atlantean Race By Any Means Necessary. Imagine that role played by Denzel Washington or Idris Elba.

But that's what most people think he is when they see a dude with black hair, a black shirt and a superman symbol... Same with the others, really.

    Aqualad being Black Manta's son is canon though. The show's Kaldur'ahm is based on Kaldur'ahm from the comics in the Brightest day story arc, aka Aqualad 2 who shares an almost exact story to the YJ version except he never goes undercover with Black Manta and he was never affiliated with the JL or any of its teams.

    It wasnt due to copy right issues it was because a live action show of aquaman was in development at the time and WB didnt want two shows running the same characters as they thought this would make for confusion, as it so happened the show didnt come to pass. The same problem occurred with batman related characters because at the time the batman and chris nolans films were also on at the time so characters like scarecrow, two-face etc never made it on JLU animated series

Superman, Batman and even Aquaman... They all have panties. Why? And then theres their side kicks... Robin and Aqualad, both have panties on. But no tights under. WTF? What was DC's obsession whit young buys in pnaties? That's kind of creepy when you think about it.... Imagine if Batman or Aquaman where real and they where seen whit their sidekicks. They would be acused of Pedophilia. Dressing up young buys in tight shirts and panties and then taking them out to fight crime... Not cool bro!
