The King of Atlantis has arrived and he’s looking like a complete badass. Aquaman has been on the butt of many jokes amongst the comic book community for a number of years now. Whether it was mocking his ridiculous costume or his superhero abilities, Aquaman wasn’t loved like other heroes.
Many found the concept of the character ridiculous – however, in recent years, Aquaman has become a force to be reckoned with. With Jason Momoa portraying him in the DC Cinematic Universe, it seems as if Aquaman may just become one of the coolest characters to grace the big screen.
As you can see from the pictures below, Aquaman is a force not to be messed with. After his brief cameo in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and his appearance in the Justice League trailer, it seems as if fans are now sold on the idea of Aquaman and his new look.
Check out the new images below:

Earlier this month Jason Momoa talked to Entertainment Tonight in which he described his initial reaction at being cast as the King of Atlantis:
“Dude, there was a lot of things that went through my head when he said Aquaman. There were a lot of things that went through my mind. I was thinking like, ‘Lobo.’ I’m gonna play some kind of bad guy. I’m like, ‘Who am I gonna play?’ And yeah, he said Aquaman. I was just like, ‘Come again? Pardon me?’ And then he explained why. I was like, ‘Whoa, buddy. I got your back’.”
Aquaman is scheduled for release October 5th, 2018.
