Who is Orm Marius?

Orm Marius is the human half-brother of Aquaman (Arthur Curry), who became the villainous Ocean Master — a power-hungry pirate and sorcerer driven by jealousy over Arthur's Atlantean heritage and throne.

Born from the fertile imagination of Bob Haney and Neal Adams in The Brave and the Bold #82 in 1969, Orm Marius is a Silver Age DC creation who has swum through the publisher's waters for over five decades. His world is a rich one — the pages he inhabits are populated by titans like Aquaman, Arthur Curry, Ocean Master, Green Lantern, and Bruce Wayne, placing him squarely at the heart of DC's oceanic and superhero mythology. Most at home in Aquaman and Justice League of America, he's the kind of character whose longevity across 56 years speaks to an enduring place in DC's tapestry. For collectors who love tracing the deep roots of the DC Universe back to its Silver Age glory, Orm Marius is a name well worth knowing.
