Aquaman (1967-1969) is a series that I recently watched on HBOMAX. The storyline follows Aquaman and Aqua Lad as they do their best to keep keep the underwater civilization of Atlantis safe. We also get to enjoy independent adventures of members of the Justice League of America as they do their best to keep the dry land safe too.
This series was created by Hal Sutherland (Flash Gordon) and contains the voices of Ted Knight (Caddyshack), Marvin Miller (Dead Reckoning), Jerry Dexter (Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends), Gerald Mohr (The Angry Red Planet) and Pat Harrington Jr. (One Day at a Time).
The animation for this series is so fun and I adored the universe and creatures created to fight Aquaman and the JLA. The narration for this series is tremendous and the voices for the characters were perfectly selected. Black Manta was awesome. The sound effects for various actions in this were dated but fun. Aqua Lad calling Aquaman "Big Daddy" was awkward and their pet names overall made me feel a bit uncomfortable. The JLA episodes were awesome and definitely made me smile.
Overall, this is a tremendous series and is absolutely a must see. I would score this an 8/10 and strongly recommend it.
