Aquaman DVD Collection Coming to DVD
Actually, upon rereading the advertisement it is not coming to DVD, it is alrady out on DVD having been released on October 23rd. Yes, the classic late 1960's DC Comics animated short subjects that featured Aquaman are now out on DVD and it has been a long time coming. I remember watching these shorts on UHF TV in the 1970's and have to say that although Marvel received a ton of accolades for their superhero television programs, DC really received the short end of the stick as their superhero programming was generally quite excellent. (Well, up until the Legion of Superhero nonsense of the 1970's that was outrageously watered down by parental complaints about 'violence') These late 1960's animated subjects were FAR closer to the true spirit of the comic books where the bad guys get clobbered by the good guys...all in a good natured way designed to teach a clear morality lesson that properly defined heroes and villains. These were very well produced animated programs and it is great to seem them get a cool DVD release. More power to DC!
