About Black Manta
His lethal high-tech suit allows him to survive underwater and adapt to any number of situations with an arsenal of destructive weaponry. Despite his prominence, Manta remains an enigmatic figure, his identity and his origins kept secret. The motivation for his villainy is a deep-seated hatred for the sea due to a personal vendetta against Aquaman. He has also been a member of O.G.R.E., the Injustice League and the Secret Society of Super-Villains.
