June 27th: Happy wedding anniversary, Mera!

According to the 1976 DC Comics Calendar, June 27th marks the wedding anniversary of Queen Mera and King Arthur of Atlantis. This was a very special event, not only for the bride and groom, but also for the Justice League of America members, who were guests of honor along with the Teen Titans. These were very bright times for the royal couple. Here, some pictures from the wedding album.

The bride and guest Pricess Diana of Paradise Island.


Mera and guests The Atom, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, Flash and Batman. Aquaman disappeared for a little while; everyone was concerned that he got cold feet; but he was actually in a little mission with the Teen Titans, and made it back just in time for the ceremony. Art by the great George Pérez.


And hereby they are declared husband and wife... King and Queen. Classic art by Nick Cardy.
