Aquaman is rapidly approaching and while there was some speculation among fans that Warner Bros. might consider delaying the movie due to strong competition from both Bumblebee and the PG-13 rated cut of Deadpool 2, that five-minute preview made it clear that's not happening. As the studio continues to promote the movie, some cool variant comic book covers have now been revealed.

These are all illustrated by different artists, including Francis Manapul, Francesco Mattina, Lucio Parillo, Ben Oliver, Dale Keown, and Nicola Scott. They'll be available as part of the Justice League: Drowned Earth crossover event and are sure to be highly sought after, especially as many put the spotlight on Jason Momoa in the comic accurate costume we saw in live-action at the end of the trailer.

Aquaman variant covers


Aquaman and Mera will be fighting side by side for the vast majority of this movie and that promises to be fun to see, especially after Justice League failed to utilise Amber Heard in a satisfying manner.

Many fans believe that Jason Momoa will only wear the classic costume in the movie's final scene but it's been so heavily featured in marketing materials and merchandise, it's surely going to play a big role.

Warner Bros. has realised that strong female characters are a safe bet at the box office and something fans want to see, so don't be surprised if Mera gets a huge amount of screentime in Aquaman.

For years, Aquaman has been treated as a joke but Warner Bros. is really pushing the narrative that Arthur Curry is a bona fide badass, hence why the hero is flanked by sharks on this cover.

Arthur Curry won't be decked out in his classic comic book duds for all of the movie, that's for sure. How do we know that? Well, for the most part, we've seen him wearing no shirt and just some jeans!
 
JUSTICE LEAGUE/AQUAMAN: DROWNED EARTH


This is such a gorgeous piece of artwork that Warner Bros. should strongly consider using it as an official theatrical poster. The studio screwed up by not putting Aquaman in this suit in Justice League.

Seeing that first one and realizing those are movie costumes and not just a comic page makes me realize how much this movie is doing right with the visuals.

@Mark45 - except for all of the CGI we've seen in the trailers so far? It's just as bad as the rhinos in black panther

@RocknRolla - what?!



You [frick]in take that back! Sure its definitely not photo realistic, but what it is is REALLY [frick]ING COOL TO LOOK AT! Best visuals I've seen from any movie in a long time, and perhaps THE MOST COMIC ACCURATE VISUALS TO DATE!

Take it back, damn you. TAKE IT BACK!!!

Is he part Klingon in that first one?

They hit her with the Worf's Triangle to create a true hero to unite the seas, land, and space!

Seeing Jason Momoa's Aquaman drawn as a comic book style makes me realise how bad of a miscast in the looks department he is for Aquaman, but I'm willing to forgive it if this film blows me out of the water (I think it will)

I still dont get why people are all pissy about Aquabro. I think it's a great and fresh take. Everyone praised Ragnarok turning Thor into a parody of himself, they basically told Chris Hemsworth to just be his normal charming funny self because nobody liked the comics accurate Thor except as eye candy, and it worked because Ragnarok was great largely due to them completely changing up the characters dynamic and just letting Hemsworth be Hemsworth. Then the same thing happens with Aquaman and its outrage and Aquabro and bitching about how it's a stupid decision. In my opinion both changes improved the character. I like Thor more since Ragnarok and now I actually like Aquaman since Moama made the role his.

People just need to stop bitching lol

@ArthurFleck - Well for me I care more about Aquaman way more than I do Thor, so it's just my bias showing. I know some people say he's meant to look a little bit like Peter David's Aquaman, but I dislike that version too.

I really don't have THAT much of a problem with the personality since it can change and he can become more mature and stoic (or not). It's the look that bothers me.

@BlindWedjat - fair enough. I have a different opinion but I can see where you are coming from.

In time and with the success of Aquaman no one will recall that Aquaman was originally a Tall White Guy with a Blonde Hair. For a whole new generation of fans...THIS will be the Aquaman now and going forward.

It’s one of the genius moves of going with lesser known I lcharacters. You can do pretty much whatever you like with their designs and the GA won’t know the difference. As long as it’s a good movie it will be accepted and adopted as the genuine article.

Look at MCU and how they reworked Scarlett Witch, Antman, The Wasp, Thor’s Personality. All for the better than their CB counterparts.

Don’t be the old guy at the end of bar screaming about the past.
