Aqualad



Aqualad was the teenage sidekick of Aquaman during the '60s. He was also a member of the Teen Titans.

He rode on a giant seahorse named Imp, and he had a pet walrus named Tusky.

In the Comics
Aqualad is the son of King Thar and Queen Berra of Tritonis, the sister city of Aquaman's home Posidonis. When Thar's brother, Zath, led a revolt with his followers, the Idyllists, Thar was killed, and Berra was banished to Posidonis. When Garth (Aqualad's real name) was born, he was left to die becuase of his purple eyes, which was seen as a sign of genetic inferiority. However, he was saved by Aquaman's biological father, Atlan, who raised him as his own. After leaving Atlan, Aqualad met Atlan's son, Aquaman, whom he rescued from certain death. Grateful for what he had done, Aquaman made Aqualad his sidekick.
