Aquaman Will Return
I wouldn't have believed it if it had been foretold:
Holiday Season 2022
and still no sequel released
to follow up on the landmark hit movie
greatest success in its genre*, in 2018:
James Wan's AQUAMAN
* said genre being not strictly super-heroics
but much more than that: epic fantasy, too!
Something that binds all of it: myth, legend,
modern-day make-believe...
In brief: something far beyond the limited scope
of mere superheroic shenanigans!
However, even after the film's release,
this many years later, some infinitesimal minds
do not admit it - heck, they don't even see it...!
But that is another story...
With the wave of changes (!) set in motion now
by the other James (Gunn - not Wan!)
one thing is for sure: AQUAMAN WILL RETURN
...only Jason Momoa might not return as him!
Maybe we will finally get (again, actually)
a classic, "accurate" (Aquarate?) depiction
as we did -twice- on the small screen already
when Alan Ritchson played the part - then reprised it
after Justin Hartley (inset) briefly played that part for a
tentative series pilot spun off the CW's Smallville!
There are idiots on the net that still believe
that such a pilot was never done - that the stills
and excerpts from it are fake!
Poor, hopeless wetrats...
Making Momoa a simple Lobo
would open the floodgates to a far more
faithful depiction of the entire Aqua Saga
starting with the Sea King himself;
whose 80th Anniversary was, in fact, in 2021.
It will be close to two years overdue
-both the film's release and this book, below-
when St. Valentine's Day 2023 rolls around...!!
Until then...
Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas
and some Acqua Di Parma with that!
Emilio Pucci will say GRAZIE.
Tell him Luciano sent you!
