On their April 1st (April fools day) they suggested Geoff Johns follow up to the upcoming Flashpoint would be “Fishpoint” focusing on Aquaman, in my head I envisioned a mini-series event the like of JLApe, but focusing on sea life rather than simians. The plot would revolve around a crazed atlantian geneticist who has been charged by the legion of doom (or the modern equivalent) to develop a device that unravels DNA reducing the victims to a protean sludge. When the JLA comes to stop him some sort of splicing-landmine goes off causing each member of the team to combine with various undersea creatures resulting in characters like “supershark”, “green angler-fish” and “bat-lobster and robin the prawn wonder”. And thus was inspired this sketch of wonder woman. Rather than go cliche and turn her into a straight up-mermaid I felt it would be fun to give her a seahorse tail. Then I added some tattoos much like Aqualad in young justice, or Disney’s Atlantis the lost empire, which if I were to color would have a glow to them. I may return to this theme sometime in the future because it is really fun.
The Geektress April fools day article may have been prophetic as I Just read that Geoff Johns will be taking over Aquaman after "Brightest Day". Perhaps I should forward this sketch on to him, Fish-point practically wrights itself
