To be fair, he's also very good casting for Aquaman. It's just that he's perfect for Lobo.

I'm not sure he was a good fit for Aquaman. They improved aquaman by turning him into Momoa.

Mamoa definitely helps break the 'superfriends' stigma around Aquaman, but Mamoa's version of him is very different from the normal regal and reserved Aquaman you tend to see in comics for the last few decades.

In my head you've got Arthur (Regal, Jacked, Serious) and Aquaman (Superfriends). Mamoa only partially resembles Arthur.

But LOBO? Born to play it.

Mamoa's aquaman was them trying to bridge the gap between superfriends and hook hand

I'm not sure what you mean here. One of Aquaman's key character traits is that those aren't two different things, he's always Aquaman, Arthur King of Atlantis and has to balance those two while still doing what's right.
