^^anon...what the fuck are you talking about?

@Wheatley: People hated Aquaman because of his Superfriends version. Plus, given how his power is to communicate and control aquatic life, writers at times needed to make pretty specific situations so he didn't seem useless. Esentially the super powered equivalent of pity sex. I mean, he can fight effectively on a ship, but what good is controlling sea animals if you're in, say, space? Or a freaking desert?

More modern writers have made things a bit easier for him; He's gotten very remarkable super strength, especially in the legs, to justify how he can swim so fast. He can do more than just control fishes, such as throw aqua-hadokens, or even control humans and earth animals to much lesser extent (all life started at the sea). It also helps that he's been written over the years after Superfriends as a goddamn manly badass that even Superman fears at times. And that he's the 2nd best character in Injustice, right behind Superman.
