They knew Aquaman was alive… More than likely due to Superman or Green Lantern… Which is why Wonder Woman was freeing him…
What they didn’t know was what state he was in…

Your little rant against Flash is equally laughable considering the fact that Prof. Stine agreed with Flash… You know… The adult half of Firestorm…

Your posting of the non-canon potion of 203 is again laughable.

1) it was unlike Flash to stir trouble… Unless a person was Russian.

2) Aquaman could have easily been told by both Superman (unlikely) or Green Lantern (more likely)… They both disapproved of his comment too.

3) Flash decided to lend a little guidance in what it means to be a member AND friends with the people he works with and cares for. I doubt he stood about gloating to his team mates after he had to point out what it was to be a member of one.

4) The JLA sattilite has monitoring equipment… Aquaman could have reviewed what happened to him and saw the exchange.

5)The extra stuff for 203… Though amusing IS not canon. Using it proves nothing. Aquaman doesn’t explicitly say Flash is guilty of the decision about bringing Firestorm’s ego down a few pegs. That could have been either Superman, Green Lantern or Flash.

The rubix cube scene was because Perez wanted to show how fast Flash is… And did.
It wasn’t like he was all like… Look what I can do guys!

They always knew… Otherwise this line wouldn’t have been said to the infallible Firestorm…

…why do you think they call him the fastest man alive…

Your theories hold little water…

Speaking of water… If Aquaman bears a grudge of any sort towards Firestorm… It’s cause Firestorm was written like a douche bag…

His line about Mera in your non-canon scene just goes to prove that.

Your hotheaded hero did need a take down comics style… He got it.

Suck it up buttercup!
