Aquaman Actually Killed Black Manta's Dad in Aquaman # 10

Aquaman # 10 really did prove that Aquaman murdered Black Manta's father which was the second part of their lifelong feud.

The scene is played out in flashback while Aquaman and Black Manta are fighting. Just like what Shin has been telling Mera; the vicious hatred these two men share started when Manta tried to take Arthur which caused his dad's heartattack.

Left without a father, Aquaman tracked down Black Manta and found his ship anchored to a wreckage which he was salvaging.

Unfortunately for both Arthur and Manta, it was actually Manta's dad that gets killed by Arthur's anger instead of Black Manta himself. 

Oh and there was one other interesting panel from Aquaman # 10; we get to see how vicious Arthur really is when he slices Manta's face...

What I'm truly pleased about the New 52 relaunch is the fact that they don't have an Aqualad at all. I'm not against the YJ Aqualad but its just that its too weird to see Aqualad at such a time when were only scratching the surface of who is Aquaman and what has he done so far in the new DCU.
