I really liked it myself. I sort of wish it was still being used.

I do! I never saw it in a book but a store had it on a poster and I thought it was really cool because it was so different from Aquaman's usual Goldfish costume.

It was good for its time, but then you remember this was the time when women had shoulder pads in their dresses.

I loved it! I assumed that they got rid of it because artists found it a pain in the ass to draw. The logic (cammo) seemed old at the time.

I always thought Tempest's costume was a riff on that costume?

That's still the best Aquaman book of the past thirty years.

When that costume came out, I remember being shocked at how different it was - and how natural it was for it to become my favorite Aquaman costume of them all.

It wasn't around for long (Crisis reset it iirc) and while it wouldn't work for him today, it's still a great look for him.

I always liked it but I have always been a fan of Aquaman in many incarnations.

I didn't know that Aquaman did a team up book with the Street Sharks :shock:
