Very excited! Pre-ordered this as soon as I saw it go up. Hopefully they make Black Manta as well.

It took me a while to figure this out since I've been a fan of Aquaman comics and never delved much into his pop culture reception, but essentially Aquaman is subject to a lot of mean-spirited jokes as a "useless superhero" (mainly aimed at his Super Friends depiction and how his powers is supposedly only "talks to fish"). This was mainly perpetrated by a lot of comedians/comedy shows over the years, to the point where people would even parody this exact sentiment. It sucks because it shows a huge level of ignorance towards Aquaman's comics wherein people are quick to make fun of him due to this.
