The Brain is a genius-level villain bent on defeating Aquaman and destroying Atlantis. HistoryEditThe Brain once created a sonic brainwave device that blocked Aquaman's ability to control sea creatures. The Brain was also able to use the device to brainwash Aqualad. He gave the teen super strength and then ordered him to attack Aquaman. A strong bump to the head from Imp restored Aqualad to himself ("The Brain, the Brave and the Bold").Sometime later, The Brain forged an uneasy alliance with Black Manta and Queen Vassa. Known as the Trio of Terror, he hoped their combined talents would be enough to defeat Aquaman and destroy Atlantis. The Brain captured Aquaman and held him in a water-filled glass coffin where he planned to crystalize all the salt in the water and entomb the hero forever.
