☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Monster That Loved Aqua-Jimmy!", Jimmy Olsen gets an unexpected underwater assignment when he temporarily inherits Aquaman’s powers to patrol the seas while the real Aquaman is away. A prehistoric monster thaws from an iceberg and starts mimicking every fishy trick Jimmy shows it—leading to some very strange underwater antics. Al Plastino handles both pencils and inks for the interior art, while Curt Swan and Stan Kaye bring the cover to life.
When Jimmy Olsen briefly gains Aquaman’s powers to patrol the seas, he stumbles into a bizarre situation: a prehistoric monster, thawed from an iceberg, starts mimicking the fish he’s trained—right down to their tricks and movements. With Mari Lynn’s star power drawing attention, Jimmy must keep the creature from turning the ocean into a stage show, all while the real Aquaman’s case unfolds elsewhere.
