Maybe I'm blind but I have no fucking idea what you're talking about. It seems fine to me.

I'm liking it so far, only complaint would be that the recapy part took up a bit too much time this issue.
>>
Whatever happened to the other Arthur Curry Aquaman that was raised in a tank?
>>
I enjoyed it. Nice action-packed piece for this with some interesting small moments.

Manta's disguise was very cool. And, especially considering this is his plot to make Aquaman hated, it's awesome that this starts with the bombing of the embassy. I do wonder how that'll play into Aquaman being the "villain".
>>
>>83978308
It's nice and I guess that art works for this book compared to any other book besides maybe a green lantern one, so I can't get mad.

Good start, but I'm sure Abnett can do better

If she is British Navy why does she say Crikey an Australian word all the time?

OP again, support the industry! If you liked this, pick it up digitally or at your LCS, DC is trying to hold the line at 2.99.

I just love DC

they aparently forgot that mera is not from atlantis

and im not sure why Arthur is blaming orm over vulko

nice page otherwise

nice to see the goverment is officially acknowledging atlantis

my god, it actually is really good

i love the idea of tying to unite landand sea
really really loved the idea of Manta just destroying his plans

I want Mera so bad anons
>>
>>83978574
That's just for publicity purposes
>>
>>83978506
my best guess is worked on a lot of joint operations
or interacted with a lot of australians over the cricket

>>83978506
Abnett is a Brit, seems like a weird mistake to make

>>83978477
He said on a podcast that it was going to be fairly political and compared a couple issues to West Wing

he was a risky character there probably going to wait to see peoples reaction to him before revealing if he survived
i hate to say it but if we want to see more of him we may have to use social media

>>83978551
that makes sense
>>
>>83978699
it'll still stink.
>>
>>83978690
the people in the triangle were raised to hate Atlantis for trapping them there they managed to get mera out to go kill arthur but they fell in love instead
>>
>>83978719
is that why she can control water?

>>83978723
yeah

I care but it's still pretty early in the day Anon. All the summerfags are at school right now.

I loved that issue! Manta is such a great villain!

>>83978259
Nooo, not Sark! You can't introduce an actually intersting side character and then kill him off in the same issue!

>>83978308
Based Manta putting these filthy fishfuckers in their right place.

That doesn't make it any clearer. The hell is string cheese? Like the literal string cheese they made in Mouse Hunt?
>>
>>83979013
hes fine tis but a flesh wound

or maybe they will use his death to show to the world we lost something in this attack to dont blame us
>>
>>83978344

It seems too shiny and bright.

I mean it's serviceable, but it could be better.
>>
>>83979068
to be fair the station should be shiny they are showing off to the world
>>
>>83979013
I believe what I choose to believe!
Aquaman should get a good supporting cast besides Mera.
>>
>>83979044
It's just cheese made in a peelable stringy fashion so you can eat it without having to slice. I guess it is an American thing.
>>
>>83979068
Fits with the water/beach feeling.
>>
>>83979085
Eating straight cheese is weird.
>>
>>83979085
Real cheese shouldn't be peelable, I shudder to think what's in it.
>>
>>83979044
>>83979085
I have lived in multiple countries with string cheese. You guys are just idiots I guess.
>>
>>83979080
>Aquaman will never have a super suave ladies man as a bff
It's not too late Abnett, it was just a flesh wound right?
>>
>>83979080
i like that they made a refrence to his first new 52 issue with the diner worker in his rebirth issue
>>
>>83979123
Sorry I don't eat poison.
>>
>>83979145
like i said eariler there going to test peoples reactions to him before they decide if its a lethal wound it means we have to take to something many of us cant even navigate
social media
>>
>>83979116
Actually looking around online and it seems like it's just physically manipulated rather than chemically.
>>
>>83979146
I like that he kept the dog.
>>
>>83979169
Make him a suave bi bff? Try and get some tumblr outrage at DC killing a new bi character? The Dick Grayson of the sea.

>Abnett is a Brit, seems like a weird mistake to make
It's hardly a mistake, Britbongs say crikey too. Stupid cunt.
>>
>>83978202

The fuck?
>>
>>83978248
Does anyone in Britain say crickey?
>>
>>83978583
Eh, I've never been big on seafood.
or fish in general
or the sea

It's a wonder how I like Aquaman
>>
>>83978938
Damn we spent all this time talking about string cheese and it's actually different from cheese straws.

Cheese straws are a Caribbean thing (or at least that's where I tend to see it made and served, might have originated elsewhere). It's basically a crumblier cheese cracker that's piped onto the pan in elongated form before it's baked.
>>
>>83978264
manta pls

he was my husbando
>>
>>83979289
Ohh, I've even had those. They're pretty nice.
>>
RIP Sark, you could have been a good husbando
>>
>>83978233
God damn, that fucking Aquaman costume is shit. There was nothing wrong with the scale mail. That just looks like it's made out of a compressed, orange turd.

I get the feeling that they probably wanted to try a more natural, organic look for Aquaman's armor, but scales are literally nature's oldest form of natural armor.
>>
>>83979195
>The Dick Grayson of the sea.
I laughed, but I actually like the idea.
>>
>>83978241
Did they bring sharks, dolphins and turtles to the station just to impress guests?
>>
>>83978241
I really don't dig the paneling here.
>>
>>83979517
Or maybe the sea creatures live in the sea. You know... Where the station is located.
>>
>>83978308
Thanks OP!

Too bad it was pretty meh. Obviously better than Bunn's shit, but it just seems so generic. Yeah, yeah, humans fear Atlantis, Atlantis has contempt for humans, and Manta has a grudge. Yawn. It's retreading the most tired Aquaman story tropes, and not even in a very compelling way.
>>
>>83978310
With how directionless a lot of comics these days tend to be, just establishing a clear goal for both the main character and the villain is already a cut above.
>>
>>83979260
The writer is British.
>>
>>83978301
I wish they'd just drop Manta talking about Aquaman killing his father, like it's been so long he has blinding hated Aquaman that he forgot the reason to start with.
>>
>>83978705
Dude was pinned to a wall through his chest and then exploded at ground zero, man.
>>
>>83979658
That's the only thing I don't really like here.
>>
>>83979682
1. He is Atlantean
2. His wound was above most of his vitals. More collarbone-area
3. He was shown intact after the explosion.

This is easily survivable. It's almost like you people read comics without actually paying attention.
>>
>>83979658
>>83979692
I can only hope that they don't drag Aquaman killing Manta's dad out as a plotline without Aquaman pointing out that Manta's dad was a member of Manta's crew and they just got finished killing Aquaman's dad.

>>83979740
Just make it a recurring joke. Every arc sees Sark horrifically injured.
>>
>>83979223
i guess her taste is just a little shit

i get what you mean though coffee is far more "surface" then clams will ever be
>>
>>83979376
yeah i give it 2 months
>>
>>83979682
i thought so at first but the explosion missed him we see him still pined to the wall afterwards
>>
>>83979223
>>83979973
might be the dairy portion, her cup is pretty dark here
>>
>>83979658
i like to think that he was thinking about how much he hates aquaman and spent a while trying to remember why

he no longer cares but he thought it might be a good way to discredit him
>>
>>83979887
>Just make it a recurring joke. Every arc sees Sark horrifically injured.
even better make sure either sark or the british navy lady are injured and in hospital at all times so they never get the chance for a proper "cultural exchange"

as in one recovers from there injury's just as the other sustains some more of there own
sexual frustration could be interesting
>>
>>83980021
I like to think he has a little notebook full of villainous backgrounds that he goes through. Right now he's on, "Parent murdered by hero," up next is, "Best Friend of hero left to die."
>>
i just noticed sark was actually in aquamans rebirth issue as well
>>
>>83980063
doctor manhatten manipulated arthurs memorys to think he really did kill his father
>>
>>83978344
the style reminds me of MS paint desu
>>
>>83980106
You're right! I refuse to believe in his death.
>>
A little too much telling and not enough showing in this issue, I think. Would have been nice to see WHY the surface world fears Atlantis
>>
>>83978583
fuck yes.
I'd even eat people if it wasn't ilegal to try

I want to him to get with his British waifu and raise their hybrid children together.

Why am I shipping two characters who were just created. Damn you, Abnett!
>>
>>83981051
I think that's what's been irking me about Mera. Dislikes beards, dislikes chowder, but likes coffee and thinks that stupid star crown of hers is acceptable.

She may be a good wife, but she's got some shit taste all right.

So very true
I'm pretty sure she even prefers dogs over cats

Probably doesn't even like skub

You know Dean White's darker colors could really do wonders with this art.
But as it is the bright colors being out every single flaw with the line work.
No its not Booth Bad but it is poor.

I dream someday after his LONG run on Wonder Woman is done, Laim Sharp gets to do a dark serious Aquaman run.

Variant cover is wild looking.

>>83978211
Manta is so obsessed with him.
>>
>>83987401
Probably to make it clear that it's direct follow up from the Rebirth special
>>
>>83987401

Wally West coming back was billed as a Big Fucking Deal in the DC Rebirth issue, and Titans is the main book that's featuring him, and will presumably be following up on that aspect of the overarching Rebirth mystery.
>>
>>83987401
Wasn't it Titans Rebirth last week, though? I think this is the proper Titans 01.

It was still in this month, so they're still running ads for the Rebirth issue.

Nice thinking anon. Sark would be a fucking great permanent addition to the Aquaman story.

I already think of him as someone who's always super charming (especially to the ladies of both land and sea) and super loyal to Aquaman/Mera. Then we get that moment when someones threatening those he cares for and he's a super badass fighter as well.

Save our new husbando Abnett.

I wish DC would stop with this shit. It reeks of insecurity. Just show people genuinely finding him impressive, cool, and even hot.

Dude's a badass warrior-king whose powers are comparable to Golden Age Superman on land.

>>84017220
aww it was a nice pairing
>>
>>84017433
to be fair they do have people finding him hot quite often

May as well ask ITT. How was the run after Johns?
>>
>>84017433
To be fair the Rebirths were meant to be more like jumping on points for new readers.
>>
>>84017681
Parker's run was good

Bunn's was meh
>>
>>84017743
True.

>>84017764
What issues fall under Parker's run?
>>
>>84017743
i was going to say thats fucking wrong but thinking about it your right

the rebirth special itself is for bringing back old readers but the character rebirths are slightly more new guy targeted
>>
>>84017764
i dident really mind bunns run that much

i actually have a theory about that though i first read it as a trade and apparently the main problem people had was the mera stuff so maybe the story is a lot worse when you are reading a bit of it each month rather then all at once
>>
>>84017789
>What issues fall under Parker's run?
26-40 I believe?

>>84018829
>i dident really mind bunns run that much
it's not horrible but it's not that great either

Bunn said himself he wasn't putting that much effort into it since people were shitting on it from the get go and it shows

>>84018906
Even Brevoort made fun of him at a Marvel panel for his poorly received Aquaman run.
>>
>>84020434
you can't say that and not post it

>>83978191
that cover is misleading

i get the feeling it was made with the trade in mind

as much as i love this i do hope they go with something slightly more like the clark and lois one have the heros in costume but still a little more serious it will work better with that couple

still they have managed to get the perfect tone for the last 2 couples im sure they can manage it again

what to put in the royal wedding special

>establish the black cannery/green arrow wedding is canon most villans wont be game to try again so you can have just manta attack and get fucking curb stomped
>somebody comments that this event is getting a lot of attention lieutenant stubbs comments that this is nothing for a royal wedding
>have a decent amount of background atlantiens
>retcon mantas villain month issue so they can finally get him out and invite him to the wedding (or at least have him show up leading up to it having him at the event would probably cause problems) (this is probably just me wanting that retconed in general though)
>if barda and mr miracle show up again have a motherbox loudly ping during a silent moment
>remember this is a royal wedding dignitary's everywhere
>dont forget arthurs schoolfriends and assorted folks from amnesty bay
>lex manages to get himself on the guestlist somehow but he doesent cause any problems
>have that detective chick that was fauning over mera sad to see her well and truely off the market
>all the magical heros teleporting in at once through the same portal hole
not that they all entered at once but even with there different varietys of teleportation spells theres enough going there at once the universe just shoves them all out together

optional subplots
>constintine doesent want to go to the wedding but eventualy the assorted magical heros presure him into it dont focus on the why they are doing it or it falls apart though he gives them the slip on the journy there though
that actually gives me an idea for the more important stuff

Then again, I wouldn't want her to become shit once they started pushing her either, like Harley Quinn.

Jesus fuck, I can't believe this thread is still up.

Honestly? I trust Johns with Mera and Aquaman as a whole. I have some issues with his run but altogether I really loved it and it's probably the best Aquaman run in years and precisely what the character needed.

I literally just finished it the other day. Read it over the period of a few days. It's not long at all. Like everything Johns does, it's not perfect, but it's still pretty damn good. Probably the best Aquaman run in years.

I'm surprised Arthur didn't adopt the kid on spot.

Parker's New 52 run is good too, as is Abnett's short run before this.
Ignore Bunn though.

If Bunn's run didn't exist then Aquaman would probably have the best consistent quality New 52 runs. Or at least one of the best.

Say what you will about Arthur, but he always gets the best girls. His highschool sweetheart seems cool.

>>84100895
She's a perfect waifu in every other way, so it's okay for her to have one flaw.
>>
>>84100824
Thank you so much anon.

>>84096938
Actual Superman already knows about the destiny of this baby so I wonder if this time he will intervene to stop it of happening...
>>
>>84095544
BTW amazing child bearing hips, she has not been mother post-N52, right?
>>
>>84100849
Why is Arthur's kingdom so empty?

>>84095544
Yellow isn't really her color

This was just after some major conflict had been going on in Atlantis. The final fight between Arthur and the villain was pretty cool
>>
This thread has been for damn near a week

>>84102824
Only 4 more replies tho
>>
what does aquaman eat? is he a vegetarian? does he eat steak? does he eat other fish making him on some level a cannibal ?
>>
>>84103126
He does eat fish

I disagree
>>
>>84103126
Why would he be a cannibal eating fish just because he lives in the ocean. He's not part fish and besides fish live in the ocean and they eat other fish too. People live on land and eat land based animals like cows and pigs.

>MUH FADDER!!

Bleh, lazy writing. Manta works much better when his motive is ambiguous, or non existent.
>>
>>84103262
his dad was a merman or some shit and his mom was human.
so,him eating fish while being half fish, would be like a human eating human from time to time. thats strange
>>
>>84103663
You know nothing about the character, do you?
>>
>>84103663
Nop, his mom was a Atlantean princess and his dad was just human, the Atlanteans even were originally earth dwellers...
>>
>>84103246
Sexy.
>>
I love that this storytime almost made it to next Wednesday.

Sometimes you're alright, /co/.
>>
>>84103246
I don't like it. Her classic outfit is pretty much perfect.

I don't HATE it though, I just don't care for it.
>>
>>84104835
Thank you.
