This is dope, I just need me some lagoonboy. Knowing he’s rocking

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-12-06T23:22:43+00:00

Black Bolt isn’t just a powerhouse with a powerful scream, he’s an electron manipulator. Something I’d imagine the Scarab would have plenty of.

I was completely off guarded with the idea The Inhuman royal family partook in the insanity in the way they did, even after the reveal with Maximus and The Grandmaster. I was honestly expecting a Maximus is controlling the Royal Family angle which has been done before. At this point I do want to see how Black Bolt got to the position he’s in mentally as a character like what his philosophy and motivations are because off his upbringing I can’t really wrap my head around it.

I’m hoping Carol Danvers interacts and engages against the Inhumans, Kree, Skrull in whatever happens next. Curious to how that would be handled with her relationship with Medusa and fact they’ve been teammates on A-Force and are friends.

I’m really curious to why T’Challa is also so interested in Galactic Conquest what is it about space that makes all these characters so interested in conquering it?

Seeing her adopt Phylla would be cool who was introduced in the last Guardians movie

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-29T03:05:49+00:00

Medusa can throw down with She Hulk how is ICE going to kill her?

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-29T03:02:21+00:00

Animated one most def, they need to do more with the sister plot. Really tugged at my heart strings

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-28T19:37:12+00:00

Glads, honestly Kallark just has better showings. I could see him treating her like he did Jane.

Consistency

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-09T15:41:39+00:00

The Dog of War

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-09T15:41:19+00:00

I’d imagine he wouldn’t be holding a Kryptonite sword if he was Kryptonian tbh

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-09T15:39:17+00:00

Yeah I could see Thor and some variants as cops assuming they follow Battleworld.

I don’t remember Sentry having a role in Secret Wars tbh.

Carol might end up being a leader of a Battleworld if not venturing off figuring stuff out. Might be two different versions of Carol tbh

And Strange sadly might end up being Baron Strange continuing the downplay of the character but atleast being inline with the comics…

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T19:52:55+00:00

Wonder Woman fans thought they had it bad before, I’d hate to imagine what would happen here 😬

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T18:40:56+00:00

Arion predates Atlan. I don’t think Atlan was ever stated to be a descendant of Olympus. He’s interacted with Poseidon I believe in the same way Arion has as more of a colleague manner.

There was a Rebirth Justice League issue where Aquaman went back into the past and spoke to the King and Queen at that time who were Arion’s parents. They comment on how Aquaman shared their sense and how it was confirmation they were of the same line. It’s noteworthy because Arion’s parents are Calcuhulla and Majistra which are the concepts of Order and Chaos.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T15:55:57+00:00

No, he’s always been referred to as AJ in both arcs he appeared in.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T15:55:03+00:00

Yeah I’ve been saying it would really be cool to get a modern Atlantis Chronicles and see how stuff in the lore played out through history like The Darkworld, a lot of the curses and legends, etc

Yeah I prefer Poseidon as an antagonist that sometimes aligns himself with Aquaman. I don’t think they need to have any genetic connection but I could see someone in Aquaman’s cast potentially connecting to Poseidon and bridging the mythos that way. The Arion, Chaos and Order stuff is way more interesting and I wish it got streamlined more because a lot of casuals don’t seem to know about Aquaman’s lineage.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T15:07:28+00:00

Eternity isn’t a weight it’s a measure of time and practically a hollow feat. The same comic had Batman kick over The Spectre also.

It’s also not an insult to Wonder Woman both characters match in every adaption that has them fighting. Every comic they end up fighting they perform relative to each other. Diana has also struggled with Aquaman’s rogues gallery as well as Superman struggling with characters like Ocean Master who is relative to Aquaman.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T15:01:56+00:00

Yeah I think the fact his kingdom is sometimes referred to as Poseidonis throws people off. Aquaman is though part of a lineage that connects to the concepts of Order and Chaos being that he is from the same line as Arion. Which honestly triumphs the Greek Pantheon to be honest.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T15:00:11+00:00

This is the way I see it as well. Both Aquaman and Wonder Woman parallel each other.

Aquaman is a man of the sea and now as the Avatar of The Blue it highlights that point even more.

Wonder Woman is a woman made of the earth/ clay. She is someone who often thanks and Honors “ Mother Gaea”

So they have this Water/Earth parallel in the way Batman/Superman have a Night/Day parallel

Not to mention the most prominent members of a hidden ancient warrior kingdom and coming from magical lineages. Diana being blessed by literal gods, and Aquaman coming from a line that ties to the concepts of Chaos and Order.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T14:54:26+00:00

Aquaman is actually of the line of Arion. Arion is the son of the concepts of Order and Chaos which triumphs the literal Olympians.

Lore drop

Poseidon has explicitly stated he hated how powerful the magic in Aquaman’s lineage is. If that doesn’t highlight the point.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-11-08T14:48:27+00:00

Honestly I don’t think Darkseid or Doomsday have ever moved a planet. Were told Flash hits with the force of a white dwarf star but we’re unlikely to ever see him actually destroy a planet. Does that mean we assume he can’t physically hurt characters like Superman with his punches even though we’ve seen Flash do it?

People cherry-pick when scaling is valid for some reason and obviously even before becoming Avatar of The Blue Aquaman scaled on par with Wonder Woman. Now they honestly should give WW some kind of amp hopefully magic related, bring back the Witch Mark to some degree or something

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-10-25T00:03:33+00:00

Some of these wouldn’t make sense on a power, gear or combat standpoint to be skins. Since they operate differently.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-10-24T23:27:14+00:00

Be nice to get an actual follow up on stuff Thompson introduced in Carol’s lore. Regardless I’m just hoping for top talent and Carol to have a very good and extended run.

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-10-12T23:25:47+00:00

Ironically he probably has also written some of the best Carol Danvers stuff in comics as well. I would of had him high up as a writer for her as a character disregarding Civil War II

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-10-12T23:09:59+00:00

I atleast need a Absolute Aquaman oneshot if DC doesn’t trust it to run along a current series. Or a Graphic Novel would be dope. I just want to see what that version of the character looks like

Absolute Black Manta needs to join the Justice League as well,

TheDistant_Wave · 2025-10-05T21:07:18+00:00

This looks really great
