Commanding the resources of a magical, high-tech, globe-spanning empire actually is something no other Leaguer can do; Wonder Woman's royalty, but she's rarely treated as having serious political power, even among the Amazons.
Since this League is missing J'onn, it would also make sense to play up the fact that Aquaman's telepathy can affect non-sea life as well. But "Watch me control this giant sea monster!!! And then stab somebody with my sharp trident!!!" is never going to be very impressive when Superman's blowing up mountains on the next page.
