Aquamen is coming to DC in 2022

DC is apparently prepping a big underwater adventure featuring recent rising celebrity Aquaman (who is finally overcoming decades of being the butt of speak with fish jokes) for 2022 - or need to we claim, DC is preparing an underwater experience for Aqua, as that s the title of a new collection teased in a banner atop a variant cover to November 9 s Black Manta 3, which you could be obtaining an initial appearance at right below.

As well as no, that isn t a typo.

Doing a bit much more excavating (or is that diving?) what little we can tell you is Aquamen will be co-written by Brandon Thomas of Aquaman: The Becoming and also Aquaman/Green Arrowhead: Deep Target and also Chuck Brown, author of DC s Black Manta restricted collection.

Provided Thomas present work as well as the plural tense of the title, a rather safe assumption is that the brand-new collection will involve both Arthur Curry, the initial Aquaman, and Jackson Hyde, the former Aqualad who is currently in the process of inheriting the mantle of Aquaman in The Becoming. And also taking into consideration the Black Manta tie-in, along with Hyde s very own partnership to Black Manta as the villain s separated child, it also promises the traditional Aquaman opponent will certainly be included.

Perhaps the collection will additionally star previous and initial Aqualad Garth, also referred to as Tempest, as DC recently appears to be spreading the wide range of top-level superhero mantles, sharing them between numerous personalities. Batman, Superman, Batgirl, Environment-friendly Light, and The Flash are all famous superhero identifications that feature even more than one personality sporting the name in present titles.

DC is presently commemorating 80 years of Aquaman, marking the character s 1941 launching in More Fun Comic books 73. By The Way, Environment-friendly Arrow also debuted in the same concern, hence the Deep Target limited collection that pairs the Justice League participants on a journey of their own.

DC has actually not announced a launch day for Aquamen but you just obtain a few even more details at DC Fandome on Saturday, October 16, but we re not promising anything.
