Aquaman

Since his dramatic debut in the 1940s, Aquaman has gone from admired hero to legendary icon. Able to breathe both in air and water, the King of the Seven Seas has fought villainy from the deepest depths of the oceans to the outer limits of the galaxy. The book tells of how this scorned baby of Atlantis became one of the greatest heroes in the world. From his abandonment on a reef to his upbringing by a dolphin to his first encounter with surface dwellers, this book chronicles the origin and ascension of the mythical figure known as Aquaman.
