We have written a lot about Aquaman over the last 10 years. With our favorite ocean master is finally getting his big screen debut, we’ve collected everything Aquaman and Southern Fried Science in one place. Enjoy!

It’s the Aquaman Trailer!

First, the brutal takedown that started it all and its follow-ups:

  • The horrifying physiological and psychological consequences of being Aquaman
  • The importance of being Aquaman, or how to save the Atlantean from his briny fate
  • Epilogue to the Return of the Science of Aquaman: Costume Palettes at Depth

The Creature Features:

  • Eleven Marine Organisms that would make Amazing Aquaman Villains
  • Five organisms with real super powers that rival their comic book counterparts
  • Five more marine organisms that put their superhero counterparts to shame

The ones where we over-analyze comic books:

  • Aquaman is back!
  • Return of the Science of Aquaman: Welcome to the Trench
  • A deep-sea ecologist over-analyzes Aquaman #25
  • Release the Karaqan! How does Aquaman’s latest foe stack up against real ocean giants?
  • The Science of Aquaman: Understanding Dead Water

The entire series about that one variant cover:

Aquaman #31 variant by Mike Allred.
  • The incredible biodiversity of Aquaman’s variant cover
  • The incredible biodiversity of Aquaman’s variant cover: Episode 2
  • The incredible biodiversity of Aquaman’s variant cover: Halfway Home
  • The incredible biodiversity of Aquaman’s variant cover: Part four of a six part trilogy
  • The penultimate installment of the incredible biodiversity of Aquaman’s variant cover
  • The incredible biodiversity of Aquaman: the grand finale

And last, but also least, that time we examined the weirdest shark moments in comic books.
