Reviews

adonis98-743-186503 The adventures of the aquatic superhero Aquaman and his friends. Despite some pretty good animation as a whole 'Aquaman' reminded me more of Scooby-Doo rather than Aquaman. This series has it's fair share of good moments but seeing Black Manta spending most of his time inside a submarine and his eyes glowing or just the fact of seeing Aquaman riding a sea horse and going around using his powers and not doing anything much after that to me was incredibly cheesy and the series just doesn't hold up plus the whole look is incredibly old today. (5/10)

johntracytb5 The summer of 1967 was one of the most exciting times of my youth, once CBS started to run their advertisements for the "Superman/Aquaman Hour Of Adventure." I'd been an avid fan of Aquaman and Aqualad stories since their days in Adventure Comics, and, being that Aqualad was my favorite hero, I also followed his adventures with his land-bound friends, The Teen Titans. Imagine my surprise to find that there would be an animated series based on my favorite heroes, something I could enjoy every Saturday, instead of waiting for the comics to hit the stands. The voice actors in the "Aquaman" series were amazing, most notably the manic performances of Ted Knight as the narrator, as well as playing nearly every villain featured. I can only imagine the contortions he went into while delivering lines for the Sea Sorcerer or Captain Barracuda. (I'd have paid to see that)! Marvin Miller, previously the voice of TV's "The Millionaire," made for a wonderfully regal yet benign Aquaman, and Jerry Dexter's voicing of Aqualad quite nicely matched the innocent zeal of Aquaman's faithful friend and sidekick. (Every time I see the "Jumpin' Jellyfish" ride at Disney's California Adventure, I hear Jerry's voice in my head saying that line). Diana Maddox had more work at playing the winsome Wonder Girl in the "Teen Titans" cartoons than as Mera, here featured as the Aqua-Duo's gal pal, rather than the wife she was to Aquaman by that time in print stories. Also of note is Pat Harrington Jr's giddy delivery of Speedy in the three "Teen Titans" cartoons, ever the smart-aleck, quick-witted Boy Bowman, coupled with his performance as the youthful Ray Palmer, aka The Atom. (Hopefully those fun outings with the Justice League Of America members and the Titans will appear on DVD in similar fashion following the "Aquaman" DVD). Additionally, the lush soundtrack for this series matched the sumptuous seascape backgrounds, making these undersea romps just as memorable as the inviting image of the ever-glowing Atlantean dome featured at the close of each show. Unlike the far more sinister and serious Aquaman later featured in Warner Bros. Animation's series "Superman" and "Justice League," these outings with the Aqua-Duo (or "Marine Marvels," take your pick) are a joy: light on violence (though Aqualad gets banged up early and often) and long on aquatic splendor, always ending in mirth and a hearty "Let's head for home, Tadpole" ...or "Squirt," "Sardine," "Shrimp" or "Minnow." (You'd think Aquaman could have had the decency to give the kid a real name, wouldn't you)? It didn't matter that the Sea King had to have a power shift (his hard water abilities) swiped from his wife, or that Tusky gets to save the day almost as often as our heroes. Our Marine Marvels knew how to show off their wondrous undersea world to its best advantage and, to this day, the series remains Filmation's most beautiful effort.It's sad that it took forty years for WB Animation to clean up those bleeding reds from the old film stock and issue these fabulous cartoons as they originally appeared. I could almost forgive them for the travesty of the Cartoon Express edited versions of the 1990s. (I said "almost")! It is, as Aqualad says, "great fun" to see our intrepid aquatic heroes riding the waves to adventure in glorious comic book colors once again. Filmation owned my Saturday mornings in the late 1960s and I love reliving that era through these marvelous episodes.

voicemaster71 I never saw this animated show of Aquaman until I was a senior in high school. We'd finally gotten a VCR and I rented the Super Powers cartoon set of Aquaman. Though the animation can't hold a candle to today's standards, I truly appreciate the work that Filmation did. The only gripe I had was Aquaman sporting black boots instead of the green fins on the back of his legs. I truly felt the show had its strength in terms of story lines. Aquaman is truly in his element and you did not mess with him. While I love the SuperFriends with a passion, their use of Aquaman was inexcusable, keeping him out of the water way too much. But I will say this, the SuperFriends had the upper hand in terms of voice over. I liked Norman Alden, the first of the 2 Aquaman voice overs better than I did Marvin Miller on this show. For some odd reason, people keep thinking Ted Knight did his voice. While Ted is definitely associated with the Aquaman show, he was the narrator, supportive players and villains while Marvin Miller was Aquaman.In this show, Aquaman had a sidekick named Aqualad, who together were like an underwater version of Batman and Robin, with Aqualad using stupid catchphrases like "Holy Haddocks!" and "Sufferin Sailfish!", plus they had an Aqua Cave. SOund familiar? And like the SuperFriends afterwards, they had to have a cutesy character around, hence Tusky the Walrus and 2 Seahorses, Storm and Imp. Mera is in the cartoon, but she's not Aquaman's wife. The only villains I recognize are Black Manta and the Fisherman, but I'm not familiar with the Brain and Queen Vassa.Tomorrow, I will pick up the series on DVD. Too bad it doesn't have the DC Super Hero segments. I love Aquaman along with Batman and Superman, thanks largely to the SuperFriends.

buddhadan-1 I'll admit that Aquaman was never my favorite superhero and in fact I felt that he, along with those like the Sub Mariner, were sort of silly because they had a limited venue and their powers were really only focused on this limited area.Yes, I understand that the world is over 70 percent water, but that being said, most people (and thus most adventure) do not live on or under the water, thus limiting these heroes.This series was, in my opinion, very average for the time and even less impressive these days. The animation style was fairly average, the stories very simplistic, and the sound effects very campy.While I didn't think that it was that impressive, I do give it credit for helping to push many other cartoons forward and for being entertaining to young children, even if it was only for a short period of time.
