File this under "HUH"???

I found this interesting listing of comics, but frustratingly the titles of the comics are unreadable or hidden.  What's worse is the weird descriptions that make no sense, but they do point out many of the disability related comics out there, old and new:


Can you guess who they're talking about here:
The adventures of the mutant bastard child of a sailor and a mermaid. 


Another hint:
Disability Superpower: His grappling-hook hand and, later, his magical water hand. 

OK, OK, I gotta give you a hint. Even though you STILL might not recognize him:

  2. It's worth noting that as of his resurrection in Brightest Day, this character now has his hand back. Of course, since the hook-hand later became a malleable gold construct, and then a water hand, it was hardly a handicap.

  3. And he's lost a hand again. The other hand, but he's back to being one-handed.

    Aquaman's hand is the new Professor Xavier's spine.
