You get to reboot Aquaman any way you like, with one caveat - he cannot ever become king of Atlantis. What would you do? This is starting entire universe fresh, from ground up.
I've never enjoyed the politics involved with him ruling. And it's kinda colonialist, when he wasn't raised there, and they are bad and have to be "fixed" by him. But mostly, I don't like the political storylines. But I can never figure out what I would want to do with him.
