Polite Dissent

Over at the Absorbascon, Scipio takes a look at the latest issue of Aquaman and raises some intriguing and important questions. Personally, I haven’t read the issue yet, so I’m withholding speculation until I do so.

I will point out a couple of previous Aqua-posts here at PD:

1. In which the subject of air bubbles, medical gowns, light, the Bends, and Atlantean hair are considered.
2. In which the question is raised that if the people of Sub Diego gained their water breathing from Aquaman’s DNA, why do they have gills when he does not? The concept of functioning gills in humans is then briefly discussed before being quickly dicarded.

I think it’s safe to say that I’m looking forward to this issue of Aquaman now…

Speaking of the Absorbascon, I am going on the record and siding with Thanagar over Rann. Let’s face it, Thanagarians are just much cooler what with the wings and helmets and medievel weapons and all (well, except that whining “artist” Thanagarian who showed up in Grant Morrison’s Animal Man. Adam Strange could have defeated him with both hands and both legs tied behind his back.)
