Mar 14, Anne rated it liked it Recommends it for: Aquafans. Shelves: fishygraphic-novelscomicsread-in Well, it's better than Batmanso at least there's that. I was hoping the newly rebirthed Aquaman would Wow me the way Johns' The Trench did, but no such luck. I mean, it's not awful or anything, but for some reason the action and characters didn't really suck me in to the story. The art didn't Wow me, either. Not ugly, just? Sorry, I can't put my finger on it, but the look of this thing was just a tad off-putting to me. I don' Well, Aquaman: Volume 1 better than Batmanso at least there's that. I don't know, it all just added up to a blech feeling when I looked at it. I appreciate it when characters who are romantically involved stick by each other, instead of falling apart at the first sign of trouble. Ok, the gist of the story is that there's this terrorist attack at the Atlantian Embassy and then on an American ship, and it all points to Arthur's people. So the America government arrests Arthur on what may be the flimsiest evidence in comic book history. Do any governments arrest the kings of other countries? I think not. That's the sort of diplomatic nightmare that would start wars. The United States is supposedly very wary of Atlantis after Orm attacked and destroyed its coastline, so they cuff its new king and stuff him in a jail cell? Um, wouldn't that kind of set the Atlanitan's off Very contrived and silly, Mr. I'm disappointed in you. The showdown with at the end left me with mixed feelings. Sure, I loved seeing Arthur show off what a badass he is, but at the same time I'm disappointed that it Aquaman: Volume 1 to be against Clark. Superman shouldn't be letting our government manipulate him, you know? He should Aquaman: Volume 1 better! Add that together with Arthur's little pity party speech about how the doesn't love him, and the whole thing had a cringy feel to it. Still, I've got hope that this will get better, because its got a decent thought flawed plot, and it's readable. Coulda been worse. Recommended for fans of Aquaman. View all 9 comments. Apr 14, Sean Gibson rated it it was ok. On the one hand, the story takes itself very seriously, setting Aquaman up as a noble and righteous king torn between two worlds and struggling to do right by both; on the other, it tries to self-deprecatingly acknowledge the ridiculousness of making a righteous and noble figure of a dude who talks to fish and wears a hideous orange-and-green, skintight, scaly outfit. Chief of Staff to the Big Blue Boy Scout himself by which I mean Superman, not Papa Smurf, though rumor has it that he Aquaman: Volume 1 took Aquaman in a best two-out-of-three arm wrestling contest with, the story goes, both arms tied behind his back. Also, that thing you did, with the twisting? And when you move your hips like that, you look a little bit like a lopsided spinny toy. Aquaman: Volume 1, you have no ass. Side note: Anne, or others, if there are actual good, compelling Aquaman stories I should read, please let me know… View all 43 comments. Jan 21, Sam Quixote rated Aquaman: Volume 1 did not like it. Atlantis has built a dry land embassy on the Massachusetts shore to strengthen relations with America. Time for Aquaman and to hit stuff! Given how popular Rebirth has been with readers, putting perennial second-plac Atlantis has built Aquaman: Volume 1 dry land embassy on the Massachusetts shore to strengthen relations with America. So it looks like Rebirth is a return to classic Aquaman: Volume 1 while also incorporating timeline - fair enough but no idea how that works given that the New 52 was a continuity reboot that wiped out classic canon! The story is so uninspired. Then things get dumber with the Deluge — terrorists obviously not standing for Atlantis — sinking a US ship and once again creating tension between the two nations. Mera is poorly written too. Remember DC Universe Rebirth 1? The only story point in that issue for this series was Aquaman proposing to Mera. I got nothing out of this one except for yawn after yawn. A disappointing beginning to my Rebirth odyssey and another Aquaman: Volume 1 Aquaman book to add to the pile! View all 6 comments. Mar 04, Calista rated it really liked Aquaman: Volume 1 Shelves: genre-fantasydiversity, seriesseries-unfinishedcomics-graphic-noveli-dc-vertigomyth-folktale-fablesub-seawant-to-own. I enjoyed this story. I felt like the new 52 was a better start, but very few can compare to as a storyteller. They are never going to let Aquaman just resolve his to kingdoms, Atlantis and the US, are they? This will forever by this archetype. I wouldn't mind seeing a different type of story than always this push, pull of Arthur's two Aquaman: Volume 1.

This is the perfect book to read if you want to see redeemed the comic book character of Aquaman. If you're smart People tend to laugh about Aquaman just because his domains are the waters, well, just think what element covers two thirds of the planet and think again about laughing. You have to understand that since he can breathe under water and reaching the depts of the ocean, therefore his body can resist more than a regular mortal, also a strenght way above of any normal man, and even he can perform jumps beyond of the ordinary. The Trench is a great reading if you can re-discover Aquaman and really understand what he can do and respect him as superhero. Aquaman: Volume 1 Aquaman grew up in the land, therefore he Aquaman: Volume 1 everything about human society, Mera is just starting to learn how to interact with humans. But you will find a top-level team offering you a great Aquaman adventure. View all 8 comments. Jun 04, Anne rated it it was amazing Shelves: comicsgraphic-novelsread-infavoritesread-infishy. Re-read My friend Paul drew this picture, then sent it allllll the way across the Aquaman: Volume 1 to me! And, yeah, I know you guys think I'm silly, but he's hands-down my favorite superhero of Aquaman: Volume 1 time, and this volume was just as good as I remembered it Original Review: Yes! Aquaman is finally cool. Aquaman has been a punchline for y Re-read My friend Paul drew this picture, then sent it allllll the way across Aquaman: Volume 1 pond to me! Aquaman has been a punchline for years. And why wouldn't he be? I mean, he wears a green and orange sparkly outfit and talks to fish! Instead of trying to do Aquaman: Volume 1 cosmetic change, Johns addresses the issues that have been plaguing this character for years. In fact, he centers the story around it. He's got Aquaman: Volume 1 power, but everyone thinks he's a joke. It's a running theme throughout the entire book. However, somewhere in the middle of it all you stop seeing Aquaman and start seeing Arthur. At that point, he becomes real to the reader. Raised as a human, and therefore originally rejected by Atlanteans, Arthur is stuck between two different worlds. And neither one really wants him. Unlike DC's Namor, Arthur wants to help the surface world. Land is just as much his home as the sea Unfortunately, no one takes him seriously. Even beat cops ridicule his efforts to help. That doesn't stop him from saving their asses, but it does give you a glimpse into what a thankless job he has been doing. Which brings us to Mera. Don't call her Aquawoman. Unlike Arthur, she isn't one to grin Aquaman: Volume 1 bear it. Sure, she tones it down for Arthur's sake, but her killer instinct is right there And it's a beautiful thing when she lets it out. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this one may end up being required reading some Aquaman: Volume 1. In other words, if you only get around to trying a few of DC's new titles, make sure The Trench is on your list. Unless, of course, you just rabidly hate Geoff Aquaman: Volume 1 for no apparent reason. Mike, I'm talking to you Get this review and more at View all 54 comments. I am very sorry to report that, regretfully not-so-spoiler alertAquaman does NOT die an embarrassingly agonizing death in this book, gasping and flopping around on dry land while the other members of the Justice League laugh, point, and throw fish food on him. Because, if that had happened, this book would have gotten at Aquaman: Volume 1 one Aquaman: Volume 1 star. I tried, Anne. I really did. What the world needs now, in addition Aquaman: Volume 1 love, sweet love, is less Aquaman: Volume 1, please, deities of all stripes, less Aquaman. But, as high-quality superhero tales go, it leaves something to Aquaman: Volume 1 desired not unlike myself when it comes to being a partner in a three-legged race; I am terrible at those. I think we can still be cordial to each other. Well, maybe just occasionally. View all 61 comments. Mar 15, Jan Philipzig rated it really liked it Shelves: comedydchorrorromancesuperhero. Aquaman, eh? I always took him for a second banana, not sure why Maybe his sparkly green-and-orange Aquaman: Volume 1 didn't look like major-league material? Aquaman: Volume 1 maybe his ability to talk to fish and ride around on over-sized seahorses didn't seem like the kind of super-power that makes children's hearts beat faster these days? Anyway, the thing Aquaman: Volume 1 my friends know what they are doing, of course - well, in this case, anyway I think what I like best is that it does not try to turn Aquaman into some kind of hipster or mega-tough dude, but instead insists on his oft-ridiculed identity: naysayers be damned. Not only does Aquaman still wear a sparkly green-and-orange outfit, but kitschy coloring gleefully highlights its effect. Admittedly, Aquaman does not ride around on any Aquaman: Volume 1 is this volume, and we also learn that he actually controls fish telepathically rather than talking to them which is manlier, I guess? The thing is, this comic book does not deny Aquaman's identity. Instead, it makes his public-image issues a running theme throughout the book - a brilliant plot device, as it turns out: it not only comes Aquaman: Volume 1 lots of dramatic alienated hero stuck between human and Atlantean culture: "How's it feel to be nobody's favorite super-hero? The boys at the station are never gonna let us hear the end of this. Aquaman, Vol. 1: Unspoken Water by Kelly Sue DeConnick
