1st Silver Age Aquaman tryout issue; origin of Aquaman (1-2/61) COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 8 (CBI)Aquaman, once the subject of light-hearted derision, has enjoyed a renaissance due in no small part to the enormous box office success of the DCEU movie starring the man mountain Jason Momoa. Showcase #30 features the first Silver Age appearance of the King of the Seven Seas and presents Aquaman's origin story, making this issue especially appealing to his fans, both old and newly minted.
