D.C Comics Underrated Characters
     In reviewing the D.C. Comics, I have grown very fond of its entertainment, characters, and story line in general. Being extremely underexposed, in this review I plan to shed light on those characters that have been left hanging in the balance. Characters such as Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Black Adam and Green Lantern to name a few, never gained the notoriety that they were so deserving of. It is my expectation, that by exposing their greatness, many others who have been kept in the dark will begin to share in the same passion that I have for these characters while continuing to help make D.C. Comics one of the best in its time currently. Arthur Curry (Aquaman) is a legend in his time. Making his debut in 1941, not only is he a key member of the justice league, but has gained the title of being called the king of Atlantis. As a top contender, Aquaman has definitely been coined as one who can combat anyone or anything that comes his way. His strength and perseverance sets him apart from the rest amongst the justice league. His ability to defeat anyone under and above water proves that he is a true force that shouldn’t be messed with. With a very dangerous nature, this Golden Tridents stands 6 foot 7inches tall; he could be seen defeating Batman with very little effort being displayed.       Another character that has been underrepresented in the comic world is a personality known as Martin Manhunter (J’onn J’onzz). As an original member of the justice league, he first appeared in1955 and has since proven himself of being one of the founders who was responsible for not only watching over the watch tower to ensure that no danger reaches others but also telepathically reaching out to other members of the justice league on earth to warn of the invaders that would try to rule the world. With his tenacious nature, his sole duty is to utilize his superpowers to protect the lives of others. His superpowers includes: encompassing superhuman strength, a great deal of speed, very limited invulnerability, invisibility, super intelligence, telekinesis, and being telepathic too. As a great superhero, Manhunter has been coined as being the middle man for humans to rely on for protection. He’s been around for a long time as he utilizes all of his powers for good to protect and severe people who otherwise would be in danger. Most times he uses his shape shifting ability to become anything he’s thinking of becoming at that time. .      Being ranked the 16 th greatest comic book villain, Teth Adam (Black Adam), making his first appearace in 1945, was a champion that turned bad. Starting out as a slave, he was on a mission after being given certain powers and him utilizing them, he becomes stricken with greed and makes it his mission to fight for what he believes he deserves. In his quest to conquer and rule anything magical gives him the ability to try to destroy anything that gets in the way of him accomplishing this goal. He is a very vicious person who not only sole his powers from his nephew Aman after helping to save him from the raiders as well as from ancient Egyptian gods such as Shu, Heru, Amon, Zehuti, Aton, and Mehen. All of these gods when put together help to spell out the name Shazam and provide Black Adam with powers that are comparable to that of Captain Marvel. Even though Black Adam is a power struck villain, he despises slavery and has a true conscious. He has also fought twice to save the lives that exist on earth and who Black Adam powers encompassed super speed, super strength, the ability to flight, invulnerability, being super human, having a healing factor, magic, and intelligence. Nevertheless, the majority of Black Adam’s fights were always against Shazam. This is interesting because not only did he acquire his powers that spelled out Shazam, but this unsolved conflict that existed amongst the two was ongoing. The best fight recorded took place between he and Shazam and Superman. He ultimately lost this battle but showed enough courage to stand alone while fighting the two at the same time. This fight was totally amazing in the world of comics. Therefore, showing just how much of a superhero he truly is.    Lastly, Hal Jordan (the Green Lantern), was one of the very first human beings to ever be inducted into the green lantern world. The Green Lantern has been around for over 70 years after making its first appearance back in 1940. He is also regarded as being the best green lantern that has ever walked the face of earth. As one of the founding members of the justice league, the green lantern the power rings were bestowed upon him as a dying alien named Abin Sur crashed his starship in a California desert. He was chosen because he had the ability to overcome great fear. During the time that the power rings chose Hal, he found out about all of the amazing things the power rings were capable of doing. His main job was to protect all life forms that existed amongst sectors 2814. Can you imagine being given a powerful ring; having a person put it on your finger and you not even realizing how unstoppable you’ve just become. The power ring is the most powerful weapon on earth and he was chosen to wear it; what an honor! The Green Lantern stands out because of his ring any and everything he wishes for or thinks
of, is granted before his very eyes. With the alien Technology, he is unstoppable. I can recall watching an episode where Batman and Green Lantern fought Superman. During this episode, the Green Lantern was able to trap Batman, but ultimately lost the battle due to his selfish behaviors. He realized a valuable lesson; it is always better to work as a team than alone.   As I conclude, I hope that you’ve enjoyed reading about a few characters, who for the longest, have been kept behind the scenes and forgotten. I think that the characters in which I chose to bring exposure to, are awesome. They have brought a lot to either D.C. Comics or to the justice league in general. Whether being a great superhero or a villain, these are just a few characters I think are really powerful but just get over shadowed by the greats like superman and wonder woman and batman and some other members of D.C comics. Their contributions to the world have been phenomenal.
