For my last entry in highlighting merpeople in animation, here are the Atlanteans from Seasons 1 - 3 of the Young Justice TV series. These DC Comics characters are various species of aquatic humanoids from the undersea realm of Atlantis, rules over by King Orin (Arthur Curry/Aquaman) and Queen Mera. Pictured here are: Aqualad (Kaldur’ahm); Kaldur’s mother Sha’lain’a & foster father Calvin Durham (middle right); Dolphin (seen with Kaldur in the bottom right corner); Wyynde (top right corner); Tula/Aquagirl (seen with Kaldur at top middle); Garth/Tempest (two middle images); Topo (bottom left corner); mermaid Lori Lemaris; and La’gaan (aka Lagoon Boy, pictured middle left and at bottom).
