The new 52 Black Manta is awsome, right? what is your opnion on the old Black Manta origin vs the new one.
Black Manta
Character » Black Manta appears in 651 issues.
A notorious pirate and assassin, Black Manta is one of the most ruthless and feared super villains on Earth, and Aquaman's mortal enemy.
New 52 Black Manta Rocks!
I don't really know much of Pre-52 Manta, but I'm really loving the character in 52. Aquaman is one of my favorite current titles.
@Krissyjump: I feel the same way about the new Aquaman.
I prefer trades to actual comics so I buy very few comics on the monthly basis. I only buy comics when I really can't wait for the trade to come out. Aquaman is definately one of those comics for me.
P.S. Nice profile picture
I love the New 52 Black Manta. I think that any Aquaman run could potentially run into the light hearted and silly like I thought it used to be. Black Manta is stone cold bad guy that almost makes Aquaman comics grimmer and darker than most other DC comics, IMO. And it works. His origin also leaves some dirt on Aquaman who on the outside appears like a god almost.
I luv Black Manta, always have. the new 52 version is hella good. The Young Justice version is the best, no other version can touch it. The pre 52 Black Manta origin is bull shit. As far as I'm concerned the new 52 / YJ version is the only Black Manta period.
@justthatkid: second favorite villain for me
I know nothing of Black Manta any one have feats to show me
Give me a few minutes and I will upload all of them. I have all the issue =)

Thanks :3
@thecheesestabber: Ok! Lots of images inc! 99% of New 52 Black Manta is located within "The Others" story arc if you want to read it fully. He also got a villains month title.
First off, some cool pictures of Manta. One of the most badass looking villains ever.
Shooting his harpoon gun.
Killing The Seer (Ya'hina I think is her name? I forget, its hard to spell). And some random people.
Black Manta vs The Prisoner of War
Black Manta vs Aquaman Round 1
Black Manta vs Mera
Black Manta vs Aquaman Round 2 (and The Others - kills Vostock)
Black Manta vs Aquaman round 3 (and the Others)
Kills a Prison guard with a coin and hijacks a Helicopter
Fights through a tidal wave
And that should be everything of note! :)
Pretty cool so far in the New 52, though like most everyone, very little appearances.
@fallschirmjager: I always thought he was cool as a kid :D
*Hug*
@thecheesestabber: I think he's pretty underrated. His and Aquaman's history is pretty brutal
He was the one who ended up killing Aquaman and Mera's infant baby too =/
And yeah...looks so badass. Reis outdid himself with Manta.

Thats it! Tommrow Im buying Aquaman O.O
That particular event didn't happen in the New 52 - though.
But you should anyway. Easily one of the best DC books right now imo! :)
