Character pronunciation

[Hado]

With the JLA movie rumours swirling a discussion between myself and a co-worker occurred today that left me curious. I've never been a big DC fan so I thought it just best to ask.

 

The rumored villian Darkseid, is it pronounced Dark-Side or Dark-Seed?

Would that make Terrax an amalgamation of the two? Thanos and Darkseid...not Dice .

To take this thread further, how do you Americans pronounce Sub-Mariner and Aquaman?

 

Is it Sub-Mar-reener or Sub-Ma-rinner?

 

I was recently watching Big Bag Theory and Howard pronounces Aquaman as 'Arqua Man'?

 

Just curious. (You guys sometimes talk funny!!)

[Hado]

I've always said Sub-mare-inner

[Dr. Balls]

I say it Dice-axe

 

I always thought it was Die Sex.
