nszerdy's Aquaman #2 - The Trench, Part Two review

Aqua-Wow!

I never knew Aquaman was so incredibly amazing! Jeoff Johns writing and Ivan Reis artwork come together really really well in this second issue and I love that it is getting incredibly violent and that Mera isn't the typical helpless girl, she definitely holds her own.

My favorite thing about this series so far is that Johns has touched on all the stereo-types or cliches of Aquaman and then shows you how this is not that character--and yet controls the dialogue well enough-to sometimes play up those cliches as a great moment of humor or one of aggrevation on Aquaman or Mera's behalf.

Bottom line: Impressive entertainment!
