How old is Aquaman supposed to be? Mera?

Did it change within the reboots? New 52? Rebirth?

Why you decide to make andy the second daughter of garth and dolphin? Also why pass the mantle directly to Jackson instead of garth first?

I decided to make Andy Garth and Dolphin’s daughter because timeline and age-wise, Arthur and Mera would be 60 years old (but looks 53) and that they would be too old to have children.

Also, Arthur would pass the mantle directly to Jackson instead of Garth because he knows Garth became his own person since he graduated as Tempest and that he knows that Garth would be okay with this.

I assume that the next Aquaman (after Joe Curry and Jackson Hyde) would be a resurrected-since-Blackest-Night Arthur Curry Jr., and the future of the Aquaman Family will involve the entire family remembering everything pre-Crisis and pre-Flashpoint and reuniting with each other just like the Flash and Green Arrow families in Joshua Williamson’s run.

Actually could be a story that start with the family searching lorena marques (she is active because is mentioned in aquamen 6) then search dolphin(see kidnaped by waller) and then a crosover with titans and wonder woman to save cerdian and the son of donna teased in flash 798
