Long may be reign!

This week is the start of the SINK ATLANTIS crossover?

Doesn’t he already have an appreciation thread?

Mods closed most of the long threads in hope that would speed the forums up. Clearly, that's not working. But as a symptom of that, most of the appreciation threads are now closed.

It is!

I admit I was a little meh of the crossover in the beginning but it feels so like it's been forever since Arthur went up against some villains outside his norm so I'm excited. Plus, I'm just happy to be rid of Rath.

I'm glad to see a new thread for Aquaman. I'm really hoping his movie is a financial and critical success. He is truly a great character and I think he still has a ton of potential. I also think his supporting cast is great.

I think he has the potential to have a great supporting cast, but outside of Mera his supporting cast is pretty much non existent. I think it's been one of the negatives of his titles since the new 52. And they're treatment of Garth and Arthur's relationship has been criminal. If they'd consistently feature Mera, Garth, Tula, Jackson and if you could also throw in Lorena and Lagoon Boy, you'd have a top notch supporting cast.

Don't forget "The Others" they were a pretty cool supporting cast for Arthur, I like the idea he has this forgotten history before he joined the league.

The fact that Aquaman still hasn't even met the new Aqualad yet is completely ridiculous.

Granted, these days we're lucky enough when Arthur and Garth get to exchange one or two words with each other.

No idea if this is a legit ad or not (probably not), but it should be true

I'm not really feeling it. I haven't read anything yet that's making me look forward to her run on Aquaman. Not a fan of the memory loss either.

I’ll get the first arc. If I don’t like it I’ll drop it after that.

Damn, as much as I hate everything I've read about the new direction for Arthur, that art is making me second guess sitting out. Maybe one issue. I'll leaf through it at my lcs to discren if I want to take a shot on another amnesiac relaunch that goes back to an iteration I don't care for.

I don't know much about Led Zeppelin, so that doesn't really do anything for me .

Blonde guy with a hammer and beard? Is DeConnick trying to write Thor ?

Is the woman at the end Mera?

Go listen to the Mothership Album and you can thank me later.

As for the article/preview I get what she's saying but Aquaman as Led Zeppelin? Her run maybe but if we were describing heroes as music Zeppelin would probably be more Batman like. The epicness feels like Aquaman but the introspectiveness and moodier tunes don't. Honestly I would pick CCR (Creedence Clearwater Revival) for Aquaman, probably no one's first choice due to the rockabilly and country feel to it but when you think about it he's basically a (Northern) country boy. Very working class type music that speaks out on social issues while being catchy and iconic. The music has a certain strong identity and comfort in it with a lot of emotional depth that I see in Aquaman.

Kinda funny typing that out when we are getting yet again another Aquaman story with memory loss and with no real identity.
