Not a huge Aquaman fan, but...

it bothers me that he was used prominently in this show's intros (although excluded from the big logo picture) and then never appeared in any of the stories. If the producers wanted Aquaman out of the stories, they should have left him out of the intros too. ["Legendary Super Powers Show" has at least two other intro inconsistencies. The Brainiac in the opening sequence is the green android that Brainiac originally was, not the obvious robot he is in this show. And Flash popped up in the opener (although in the background) but then never appeared in any of the stories.]

I AM an Aquaman fan, and I agree wholeheartedly. Why put him in the intro if you're going to exclude him from the series? Same with the Flash. The "Reflection in Crime" episode with the Mirror Master could have used the Flash. And one episode where Aquaman would have been useful was "Mask of Mystery" when Lex Luthor traps the SuperFriends in a sinking tanker at sea.

Flash and Aquaman in the opening is odd, but the old Brainiac design is shown briefly when he explains his change, so I suppose he didn't change it until after the opening lol.
