There is the trinity, there is Flash + Green Lantern (who also has other close friends).
On top of that he is divided between Atlantis and surface.
Is being a loner part of his appeal?

>>93146873
He has a whole Aquafamily. He even has a pet octopus/kraken/whatever the fuck.
>>
>>93146873
He has a wife and a bunch of sidekicks so nah
>>
>>93146873
He has a bitching hot wife with him almost all the time. I think he is fine

His adventures with Wonder Woman are always pretty great. Their mythologies make a nice pair.

And considering the vicious blood feud between them in Flashpoint it'd make sense to assume in the regular verse they're good pals.
>>
>>93146873
Isn't he banging one of the hottest and most dedicated redheads on the planet. Yeah, no. Arthur's doing fine.
>>
>>93146873
I think it speaks to or I at least pretend it's mainly his duties as king that put him in a different situation than the rest of the league. Not even heroic shit but land disputes and taxes and healthcare. There's probably some kind of pollution management initiative he has to oversee. Signing off on permissions for surface dwellers to do research or claim salvage. If they just said Aquaman doesn't have time to develop inner League relationships like everyone else does, I'd totally buy it with little explanation.

He has a hot as fuck redhead waifu willing to do anything to him. ANYTHING. Who needs friends?

Also, he and Martian Manhunter were pals during JLA.
>>93147013
Some writers paired these two. if not for Mera, I think they would end up together.
>>
>>93147060
This is what I always assumed, dude's too busy to be having adventures in space with GL or something
>>
Aquafamily has Mera, Tempest, Aqualad (Jackson), and just regained Dolphin. He used to have Aquagirls I (Tula) and II (Lorena Marquez, Aqua-sidekick of Tim's generation) pre-Flashpoint.

Otherwise he's bros with Martian Manhunter and should really be best buds with Wondy to complete the circle of World's Finest (Supes/Bats) and Brave and the Bold (Lantern/Flash). So you have three pairs of two heroes each of the Big Seven who always hold their own solo books (IE, Supes/Bats/WW/Flash/GL/Aqua).
>>
>>93146873
Hasn't that been a thing for Aquaman in the last few years? That he's not really close to anyone in the superhero community which makes him come off as kind of a loner even though he's actually a pretty friendly guy.
>>
>>93147206
I suppose. and the movies seem to be going for that angle.

It's hard to not be a loner when anyone you get close to ends up dead in front of your eyes with the same nemesis standing over them again and again.

Oh, this is a Black Manta thread now.

His friendship with Wondy is cute.
>>
>>93146924

Topo is his octopus pal. He's not his pet any more than Jimmy is Superman's. This distinction is important to me.
>>
>>93148770
Do they ever interact? Like at all. I can't remember any scene with them talking. You'd think Ollie would have a lot of opinions to share about monarchies.

The late 90's two issue arc of Wonder Woman where the two team up is literally the worst story in Wonder Woman history.

You could swap that for the much more broad "love interest" and the answer would still be no.
