Aquaman, Volume 1: The Drowning (Rebirth) by Dan Abnett
4.0
I enjoyed this story. I felt like the new 52 was a better start, but very few can compare to Geoff Johns 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 halves.
I don't really understand why comic books set up their good guys to fight each other over and over. It seems people love seeing the good guys fight each other as much as they like seeing them fight bad guys. I get tired of it. It's quite the trend right now. oh well. I never seem to be on trend, or rarely. Hey, not everyone can be.
Usually, a country will either try and resolve a situation peacefully or maybe go to war, but they don't seem to take the approach of locking up the president or King of a nation. I think this was a strange reaction. It just seems like a set-up to me and if an embassy blows up, usually the government tries to figure out who did it, not closing it down and cutting off diplomatic ties. Anyway...
I think this was a good story. I had fun reading it and I will continue on with it. I think Aquaman is still one of my favorite in the DC wheelhouse. Well, if they don't continue to ruin her character, Wonder Woman is my favorite, but they have messed with her and she's not as shiny, but the movie got her right, to bad the NEW 52 did not.
