Ten Thoughts About Ten Comics – Mara, Glory, Emily And The Strangers, All Star Western, X-Men Legacy, Batman Inc, Dollar Bill, Aquaman, Justice League Dark, Angel And Faith
And then launch a sequel… In Aquaman, we meet the new members of the Justice League Black Lightning, Vixen, but no sign of Goldrush though I guess they are saving her for the actual series itself… It's quite entertaining to read John Constantine being written out of character in Justice League Dark… when it's meant to be[...]
Is Atlantis Meant To Be Israel? (Justice League And Aquaman Spoilers)
A response that's "ten times harder" and "your people" seem to be the biggest giveaway here, in this conversation with Batman in Aquaman #15 (which you should also make sure you read after Justice League #15). Or course, another reading may see Atlantis as Palestine Or Iran Or the USA itself Cold War aspects given a[...]
And Finally… The Rotworld Starro (Swamp Thing #14 Spoilers)
If you have, maybe it's time to take a second look… Yes yes, William Arcane is the Rotworld Aquaman, but even better, he's riding on Starro, which is the frst New 52 appearance of the mind controlling Starfish villain Does that mean, when everything gets reset, he'll be in the immediate future of the New 52?     [...]
Twelve Thoughts About Twelve Comics – New Mutants, Fashion Beast, Justice League Dark, Aquaman, Revival, New Deadwardians, Happy, Fatale, Hit Girl, Swamp Thing, A Plus X and Invincible
Though, as Jenny Sparks was created as a bit Constantiney, is Constanine becoming a little Sparky? Aquaman is a bit down on his Hallowe'en costume Come on Aquaman, one of the rules of cosplay is that you commit to the character! Revival goes for a little but of revolutionary struggle and conspiracy You know, compared to the[...]
Nope, Ardian Syaf Is The New Aquaman Artist (UPDATE x3)
Eddy Barrows it seems is, yes, just the cover artist on Aquaman #15. Taking over on the interiors from Ivan Reis and Joe Prado as they move to Justice League with issue 15, is Ardian Syaf, who drew the first year of the New 52 Batgirl, and Red Lanterns #0. In other news, it looks like Fabian[...]
Is Eddy Barrows The New Artist On Aquaman?
Ivan Reis and Joe Prado are leaving Aquaman to work on Justice League, with their Aquaman writer, Geoff Johns. But who will replace Reis and Prado on the book they made their own? The issue 15 cover for Aquaman, kicking off an Aquaman/Justice League crossover, looks very much like Eddy Barrows, or Eduardo Barros Now, DC sometimes[...]

Monday Trending Topics: Aquamania Plus One
It's been just over a year since New 52 Aquaman first trended on BC, in response to a preview of Aquaman #1 pages by Ivan Reis and Geoff Johns  Good sales, critical acclaim, and at least a month or two during which the book outsold every Marvel title, and the character still has more than[...]

Fourteen Thoughts About Thirteen Comics: Justice League, Spider-Men, Batman Inc, Before Watchmen, Hit Girl, Supreme, Savage Dragon, Aquaman, Prophet, Incredible Hulk, Fatale, Amazing Spider-Man And Amazing Fantasy
Being imprisoned from continuity for ten years will do that to a superman. Reading Aquaman, it is telling just how far Ivan Reis has come And how much his style suits certain types of inkers There are two on this book, Joe Prado and Andy Lanning Andy has a harder, thicker, more rounded style that loses[...]
Wednesday Trending Topics: DC Unsubbed
 Everybody likes Aquaman But: Which means Justice League International readers will miss the final two issues of that comic, and unless they object, will receive issues of Superman instead And subscribers to Aquaman will be switched to Justice League (and pocket the difference in price) and Justice League Dark subscribers will, bizarrely, be switched to Batman:[...]
DC Stops Subscriptions For Aquaman, JL Dark,  JLI And Swamp Thing With Issue 10 (UPDATE)
And subscribers to Aquaman will be switched to Justice League (and pocket the difference in price) and Justice League Dark subscribers will, bizarrely, be switched to Batman: The Dark Knight. It's an odd decision, especially considering Aquaman is such a top seller Does it reflect DC's plans for these titles? And any reason that JLI subscribers[...]

And now some of the spinoff books of the crossover have joined the series in that much prized top ten of comic books selling in the North American direct market… Which means, finally, Aquaman is being outsold by both Uncanny X-Men and Avengers It's taken until April 2012.

And you don;t have to turn your comic around to read this one. You see, this is the kind of conversation I have with my wife, just as Aquaman has with Mera Though usually about going to the comic shop rather than seeing a body. And in Battle Scars, Sergeant Marcus Johnson doesn't just look like Nick[...]
An Open Letter To Geoff Johns About DC-Iranians
A similar letter has been sent to Aquaman editor Pat McCallum. Dear Mr Johns, After reading Aquaman #7, I felt the need to share my thoughts on a topic close to my heart To that end, allow me to very briefly share my background with you: I'm an Iranian-American writer, a lifelong fan of the medium of[...]

Ten Thoughts About Ten Comics Today – Aquaman, BPRD, Morning Glories, Justice League Dark, New Avengers, Angel And Faith, New Deadwardians, Cover Girl, FF, The Twelve
This week's Aquaman shows me why I'm wrong, with his beautiful portrayal of a seer seeing her own impending death floating in front of her Stunning. Equally, the opening double page spread of New Avengers #23, in which Mike Deodato has created a mangaesque explosive attack, with the kind of caption narrative that feels unfamiliar, but[...]
Blue Beetle And Lagoon Boy To Join Young Justice
But it seems that the new Blue Beetle and Lagoon Boy, created by Erik Larsen in Aquaman, will be joining Young Justice in the second season of the TV show. Action Figure Insider caught the spot on the side of the box for new Young Justice toys. Only main characters make the livery, it seems… [...]
Friday Trending Topics: Aquaman Catches The Wave

Aquaman Vs Darkseid – SPOILERS
Much of the Aquaman relaunch has been seen to be an attempt at revitalising the character, moving away from the mockable baggage of previous comics and Seinfeld/Big Bang Theory references alike. And it worked Not only did I cast Samuel Jackson in the role in my mind, but his fifth issue outsold every Marvel comic book[...]
