im glad someone else see the value of having a character like lagoon boy on the show. we all know someone who is a little over the top i think and to me he does it to cover up his insecurities.

when you think about it he has 2 people to live up to in the team: 1. kaldur was the leader of the team and aquaman's first sidekick so he has some huge shoes to fill, that would make anyone insecure. 2. he also has to live up to conner, his girlfriend's ex who is basically perfect. speaking as someone who had to come after the first big love its really not easy to follow something like that.

to me its no big surprise that he acts the way he does
