Genre: superhero
Screenwriter Story by: Geoff Johns
Artist: Ivan Reis
Original Output: 2012
publishing house: "Azbuka-Atticus", 2016
DC Comics' superhero pantheon is full of implausible and downright wacky characters. One of these is Aquaman. This hero was invented in the middle of the last century, when the requirements for comics were low, and by the 2000s, when the audience became more demanding, he turned into a target for ridicule. A superhero with scales and a trident, breathing underwater and controlling fish? What could be more stupid? It was from this opinion that he repelled creative director DC Comics Geoff Johns, who brought back interest in the hero in a very unusual way.
The author deliberately built the plot around the ridiculous image of Aquaman. The descendant of the Atlanteans is opposed not so much by terrible monsters as by mocking him American society. The superhero is alien to the world where he grew up. A contradiction begins to ripen inside him: why risk his life for the sake of people who do not have an iota of respect for him? Thanks to this background, the story fits well against the backdrop of hectic superhero action films, and the slow pace of the narrative creates the necessary immersion effect. It really turns out to empathize with Aquaman!
The descendant of the Atlanteans is opposed not by terrible monsters, but by a society that mocks him
Artist Ivan Reis successfully maintains the originality of the comic. He draws the monsters opposing the hero in a gloomy, almost Lovecraftian style, thus bringing a bit of spectacular horror to the story. As a result, the comic also looks better than many analogues.
The last but not least advantage of the Hollow is its value in itself. The story arc is cleverly closed, and the intriguing ending becomes just an excuse to pay attention to the sequel.
Outcome: One of the most ridiculous superheroes gets a great reboot. The Hollow won't be a classic, but it's sure to delight DC fans.
In Hawaii, the newlyweds were pleasantly surprised to meet actor Jason Momoa during a photo shoot. Khal Drogo, at the request of the photographer, intervened in the process, making the wedding shots much more badass. And it seems to have given fans even more reasons to love.
Let Jason Momoa and best known for his role as the stern hero of the "Game of Thrones" Khal Drogo, fans are still sure: the actor is a real cutie. And even the furious haka dance performed by Jason at the Aquaman premiere will not dissuade fans. And at the end of December, Jason once again showed his admirers his pleasant and friendly nature, intervening in the couple's wedding photo shoot in Hawaii.
Newlyweds Kathy and Brandon Myers chose a beach on the island of Oahu, not far from the capital of Hawaii, Honolulu, as the location for filming. The couple calmly posed for a photo, when suddenly Jason Momoa appeared on the beach with friends and family, according to E! News. Apparently, the actor was just walking with his loved ones - he was wearing casual T-shirts with shorts. Noticing the festive photoset, Momoa and his entourage began to shout congratulations to the guy with the girl.
The wedding photographer quickly got his bearings and asked the star to take part in the shooting. And Jason happily agreed. Nearby, as journalists write, a child with a trident was resting (of course, which looks exactly like the trident from Aquaman, which cannot but arouse certain suspicions). Be that as it may, the actor borrowed a toy from the boy and began to pose with it. Momoa stated that he portrayed Bigfoot - but it seems that he still turned out the perfect Aquaman. Here he notices the unsuspecting newlyweds.
And goes on the attack! Marks, of course, the groom in the head
And not only in the head... What a crazy khal.
After filming, Jason signed the trident and returned it to the boy. According to the wedding coordinator, the actor was very responsive: he took pictures with everyone present on the beach and behaved very modestly (what a cutie!). In the meantime, the guests and organizers of the event talked with Momoa's relatives, who also turned out to be very positive and pleasant people.

Biography
Originally in the Silver Age, Arthur Curry was the son of a lighthouse worker named Tom Curry and a woman named Atlanna. Arthur is already adolescence demonstrated incredible strength and speed, as well as the ability to breathe underwater and talk to fish. Being near death, Atlanna revealed the truth to the boy: she was the Queen of Atlantis, who was in exile, and promised that one day Arthur would become the ruler of the seven seas. His father gave him an education and taught him how to manage his abilities, which ultimately helped him become a hero named Aquaman. His origin was changed when the DC Universe was restarted, following the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths. Orin was born into the royal family of Atlantis. But later it turned out that his father was not the king of Atlantis, Travis, but the immortal wizard Atlan. He predicted a great future for the child and named him after his ancestor Orin, promising to become the father of another child, because the two brothers must always fight for the future of Atlantis. Travis immediately knew the child was not his due to the color of his hair (Orin was blond), indicating that he might be carrying the Cordax Curse. It was announced that the Queen had suffered a miscarriage and that the baby was abandoned on Merciful Reef. But thanks to their ability to communicate with the inhabitants of the seas, the child was raised by dolphins. His adoptive mother, Porm, gave him the name Swimmer, although Orin left this family when his adopted brother, Drin, was killed by a fisherman. His next encounter with humanity was when the lighthouse worker, Tom Curry, took him in to be raised, naming him Arthur Curry, before he died. While spending time in Alaska, Arthur fell in love with an Eskimo girl named Kako. She was pregnant, but Arthur did not know about it, as the demon Nulayuk forced him to leave Alaska. His next run-in with God came when Arthur protected Princess Diana from sexual harassment from Triton, son of Poseidon. Back in Atlantis, Arthur was sentenced to hard labor in a prison called the Aquarium. He has developed good relations with former professor Valko, who taught him Atlantean; during this time, he learns that his biological mother has died. The first superhero Orin met was The Flash. He called Curry Aquaman during a press conference on the banks of the Crescent. Upon his next return home, Orin learns that Professor Valko has led a rebellion and demanded his rightful right to the throne of Atlantis. This was supposedly changed during the Crisis on Infinite Earths, which was revealed during a conversation with Jackson Hyde and revealed on Brightest Day that Arthur was once again the son of Atlanta and Tom Curry.

Mera says that Orin felt safe on Earth and that this is indeed what he wanted. Sometime later, a black power ring is seen in Orin's grave, resurrecting Aquaman's corpse. He later appears as a member of the Black Lantern Corps and demands that Mera rejoin him in afterlife, offering her the chance to see her son again. Garth is killed and joins the Black Lanterns himself. Mera refuses such an undertaking and flees. At the climax of the miniseries, Aquaman is among the revived White Lantern Entities and is reunited with Mera. Because the Black Lantern Ring helps restore Orin's body when he is revived, his arm is also restored.

Aquaman's most famous ability is his telepathic ability to communicate with marine life, which he can summon from a great distance. While this ability is most often and most easily used on marine life, Aquaman occasionally demonstrated ability to influence any creature that lives on the sea (such as sea eagles), or even any creature that evolved from marine life (such as humans). In the 2011 reboot, the power of Aquaman's telepathy was greatly downplayed: acknowledging that most of sea life is not developed enough to make telepathic communication, Aquaman is now stated to be simply coercing sea creatures to do his bidding by subtle alteration of their cerebellum.
Aquaman has a number of superhuman powers, most of which stem from the fact that he can live in the depths of the ocean. He has the ability to breathe underwater. He possesses superhuman strength , high enough to remain unscathed under the enormous pressure and low temperature of the ocean depths. It can swim at very high speeds, capable of reaching speeds of 3,000 meters per second (10,800 km/h). He can see almost complete darkness and has acute hearing providing sonar. Although he can remain underwater indefinitely without any ill effects, Aquaman becomes weak if he remains on land for an extended amount of time. However, when Batman invented Aquaman's water suit, he could stay on land for an indefinite amount of time and was no longer vulnerable to the "dryer". This weakness was later removed in 2011, revealing that he grew up on the ground before learning of his mighty heritage.
