Tom versus Aquaman and World's finest comics number 133 or Serenow de Atlantis.

Welcome back for Aquaman and World's finest comics number 133, the May 163 issue,

0:12.6

feature cover pencil by Jim Mooney, by Sheldon.

0:15.3

This is being edited by Jack Schiff, and our Aquaman story is Aquaman's new partner,

0:19.4

Aquagirl, written by Jack Miller with art by Ramona Frayden. This is not the first time we've been threatened with an aqua girl. Now, in the last showcase, we had another story about it. This is not the same aqua girl, and it is not the aqua girl that people would think of when you'd mention aqua girl. So the threat keeps being made over and over and over again. We begin, Atlantis, ancestral home of both Aquilad

0:40.9

and Aquaman. Aquaman Aquilad are there. Aquaman's brought Aquilad down because Aquilad has been sick,

0:48.6

and the purified water of Atlantis will probably help him get healthy faster. The leaders of

0:54.0

Atlantis want Aquaman to sort of

0:55.5

hang around. They're much friendlier with him. He's taking care of that Pomoxis thing many times.

Aquilad in a hammock, sad. All Atlanteans sleep in hammocks, just looking what's going on. And as

1:24.2

the random pastor by Atlanteans mentioned, usually, Selena only really

1:29.9

has eyes for Merlin, another Atlantean, but he just never pays attention. As they say, he never gives

1:34.7

her a tumble, which sounds like a euphemism for sex, which makes me wonder about the

1:39.9

Atlantean male-female relationship. Shortly after Aquaman's made this new friend,

1:44.6

Aquaman comes over and tells Aqualad that the Atlanteans have given Salina special permission

1:50.8

to leave Atlantis to become his new assistant while Aqualette is recuperating. Of course,

1:55.9

Aqualette's immediately freaking out that he's going to get replaced by this hot chick who

1:59.6

swims better than him,

2:01.4

probably smarter than him. He's just sitting there in a hammock with a pillow worried. He watches
