Always happy to read backstory of key characters, especially female ones that may have been introduced intially only as side characters to male leads. I don't have much background on Aquaman beyond the film, but thankfully the politics of the various kingdoms and important players was clearly laid out, yet it never felt too exposition heavy. The emphasis on the right to choose is a strange contrast to the state of being royalty and fated to rule, but the striving for change and peace among previously warring factions is way more appealing than epic action scenes.
