Trivia[]
- Similar to how Aquarius is based off Aquaman and Namor, Aquaria seems to be based off Mera from DC Comics and Namora from Marvel.
- In the comics, Queen Aquaria was supposed to marry Invincible, a detail mentioned in the show. However, the show decided to eliminate that storyline. Unlike the show's approach, Queen Aquaria was open to the idea of marrying Invincible. Ultimately, Mark helps an Atlantean who loves the Queen defeat the Depth Dweller, allowing him to marry Queen Aquaria instead.
