“The Legend of Aquaman”

Aquaman bursts through the ocean's surface in full classic regalia — orange scale-mail tunic, green gloves and fins — grinning with the easy confidence of a man completely at home in churning white water, with a bright sky stretching behind him. This 1989 DC Special brings together writer Keith Giffen, co-writer Robert Loren Fleming, and the art team of Curt Swan and Eric Shanower to chronicle "The Legend of Aquaman" in DC's prestige New Format. It's a handsome package for fans of the King of the Seven Seas, and Swan's cover alone captures the sheer joy of the character perfectly.
