=== Aquaman ===
A Namor ripoff that has become better known than the original due to Marvel's refusal to include Namor in non-comics media... mostly because, unlike Aquaman, Namor is consistently characterized as an arrogant asshole. The lame ''Superfriends'' cartoon made an entire generation consider him a joke character since broadcast standards, bad writing, and sharing many powers with the rest of the group led to his main uses being swimming and talking to fish, ignoring his title as King of Atlantis and the superhuman strength and endurance that lets him operate at the crushing depths of the ocean. Later writers have gone out of their way to try to dispel this stigma: later comics and the DCAU ditched his goofy goldfish suit and recast him as a grizzled badass who only works with the Justice League because the things they fight are a bigger threat to Atlantis than human pollution, while ''Batman: The Brave and the Bold'' would make him '''outrageous''', a boisterous oaf who could quote [[Minsc]] and not break character.
