Batman Vs. The Creature from the Black Lagoon

 

The Creature from the Black Lagoon truly had an excellent costume design. It looked great in and out of the water and certainly gave me the chills as a kid.  Batman's movie serial costume wasn't as much of a success.  It looks ok here, but most of the time one or both of his ears was pointing in the wrong direction!  

Agents of the Abyss (The Animated Series!)

 

The Agents of the Abyss first appeared over a decade ago in STF #631, and I have been meaning to bring them back ever since.  What better way than as their own animated series? I'd happily tune into a show like this over a heaping bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios. 

Sub-Mariner Vs. The Creature From The Black Lagoon

The Creature from the Black Lagoon remains for me one of the greatest monsters ever created for the silver screen.  The suit is a true work of art and looks amazing above and below water.  It definitely frightened me as a kid and certainly has had an influence on other movie makers, most recently Guillermo del Toro as seen in The Shape of Water.  I do wish that he had crossed over with some of the other Universl Monsters back in the day.

Aquaman is finally getting the respect he deserves.  For a long time though, he was seen was the weak link in the JLA because of his power set.  It wasn't his fault  though, he just didn't get enough chances to show off his stuff.  hey, it's tough being  a water based hero when your team's headquarters is located on a satellite or the Moon!  It's long past time that we had a super group made up of the greatest undersea heroes.  banded together, they could shine in a way they never could when teamed up with air-breathing partners.
