His popularity is higher now, but I think a lot of the initial success after the new 52 is because Johns and Reis were put on the book.
He can't control water per se, but Aqualad (new and old) can (see Young Justice). Heck, as the comic book panel someone posted above says, he doesn't even talk to sea animals so much as compel them to obey.
He's not exactly a lightweight, but compared to Superman, Batman, Gal Gadot, a guy who can make green constructs, a guy who's super fast and can run through time, and a guy who has all the powers of Superman plus can turn intangible/invisible but is afraid of fire, he loses out (He's arguably more useful than the second wave, though: a guy who can shrink, a guy who shoots arrows, and a guy who has wings).

The fact we are debating Aquaman because he is going to be in a movie, is pretty awesome for fans IMO.

Terrible design, building is too short. Yet another fail for this so-called film.

Actually, it is a fail. Lex always fancies himself as the biggest thing in Metropolis and enjoys towering over anyone. Unless the film explains that his building was totaled by the Wayne satellite debris during the Zod-Superman fight, that building is stupid. I also don't care for the X logo.

Whatever the verdict, that is not Linda Carter's daughter, Jessica Altman. That is an actress named Ashley Tesoro.
You can find a few more shots of her that were taken the same day, here.

You know, there isn't really anything wrong with this guy. He just doesn't measure up for some reason. Somebody else can make the jokes he tells a little funnier. He could use a little help in the wardrobe department. He loses a lot of women to the taller, more handsome, more suave guys (and/or the bad-boy types). Or maybe he's all of those qualities, yet somehow isn't quite Mister Right Enough for the leading lady, who prefers the Protagonist's flaws.
A nice guy, finishing last

In an essay about character actors of the 1930s and '40s, Luc Sante described Ralph Bellamy as "the other guy, the extra man, the school pal you forgot about until you saw his obituary, and then missed him without knowing why." Asked what his ex-wife's new fiance looked like in "His Girl Friday," Cary Grant cracked, "He looks like Ralph Bellamy." Long after he ceased to be played by Bellamy himself, "the Ralph Bellamy character" has remained a staple of romantic comedies.

Short version: Aquaman/Cyclops is lame.

I have never heard anyone call Cyclops lame before. Sure, he isn't a Wolverine level of popularity, but he is still one of the more popular X-Men. A lame X-Man would be someone like Jubilee or Dazzler.
Also, saying that neither Cyclops nor Aquaman can get the girl is wrong. Both are married. Jean Grey may be attracted to Wolverine, but she prefers Cyclops and married him. Aquaman is married to Mera.

Ralph Bellamy was Randolph Duke, the one who had a heart attack on the stock exchange floor... while the suave, sexier Don Ameche got to have a character-defining eruption of self-righteous indignation and went on to breakdance in Cocoon, winning an Academy Award. AHA! Anti-semitism...

Is Cyclops still hooking up with Emma Frost?
