Ando’s sidekick juice is also of questionable utility, particularly if there’s no other super around… Or worse yet, if the other super is the enemy.
I wonder if Ando can supercharge anyone. I mean if he can make the dast girl run even faster, why can’t he make a normal person run pretty darn fast? I suspect he hasn’t learned the full capabilities of his power yet.
I mean really–he WORKS in a COMIC BOOK STORE and he hasn’t committed suicide after figuring out he’s basically Aquaman? Kids today have no pride…
Are you kidding? I’d be un-scuba diving all I could. Except for the saline poisoning thing. 
Water breathing has a nice reverse evolutionary vibe to it, and it’s not as lame as Molly ‘Expedia’ Walker’s.
Angela’s is really weak. Cryptic prophecy dreams? Maybe you just eat a lot of spicy stuff, lady.
He’s Aquaman without the charisma and communication with fish.
or super strength.
As far as we know, he might only be an okay swimmer.
Um, the great bone structure … he’s got lookism going for him,which some find charismatic in nature.
I’m fully expecting that as well as being the poster boy for showing how Innocent People Will Suffer from this Mutant Registration Act, we will also get a scene in which he nonetheless somehow saves the day in the most contrived set of circumstances ever. Bit like the good old days of the New Mutants in which a suspicous number of plots hinged on Doug Ramsay being able to translate stuff just in time!
He’s Craig Ferguson as Aquaman!
You know, it just occurred to me as we slag his semi-useless “power” that the explanation of locking these guys up for the good of mankind is awfully thin when it includes locking someone up who can breathe underwater. Yeah, that’s far too dangerous - he might…go swimming!
Lame? Via the comics, Sylar now has the power to sign and/or review contracts with his mind. That original host sounds like someone the government could have recruited to review tedious legislation.
I’m thinking they’re going to a* 5 Years Gone* variant of the world, so look for Mo and Matt to get co-opted into the program somehow. All they have to do to get Mohinder is wave a shiny lab in his face; but now that he has some ability to protect himself, he may grow a pair.
Or the orange shirt.
He said he was on the swim team in high school. If he was a great swimmer, he’d be on a collegiate or masters’ swim team still. So, I’m voting “okay, not good” swimmer.
Actually, I’m voting “writers are sloppy, didn’t do any research other than thinking it would be amusing if Aquaman was on the swim team”. 'Cause we all know it’s true.
That also describes every episode of SuperFriends with Aquaman, like, ever. It is traditional for every Aquaman appearance to mysteriously give him something to do so the viewers don’t start wondering what kind of lame power is Heart, anyway.
Smallville, as I recall, stuck in a giant lake out by the mountains and forests of Kansas, when Aquaman showed up there. I fully expect Comic Store Fish Guy to save the day by… swimming… somewhere… maybe in India, or something.
In my mind swimming guy reminds me of Night Boat from the Simpsons.
The current Heroes on-line graphic novel does show that yes, Alex Woolsly was on the swin team:
