Aquaman #41

In "Babewatch," Aquaman finds himself unexpectedly pursued by the powerful Maxima, who’s less interested in world domination than in claiming the sea king as her own. When his female allies step in to rescue him, the Atlanteans are left both baffled and disgruntled—especially as Maxima’s attention turns from villainy to something far more personal. Written by Peter David and brought to life by Jim Calafiore’s dynamic art, with inks by Mark McKenna and colors by Tom McCraw, this 1998 issue features a cover by Brian Stelfreeze that captures the moment’s absurd tension.
