    The Dead King brings the Heat.

    The Good

    This title is probably one of the most consistent titles on the shelves, and this story just keeps getting better. Everything is going downhill for Aquaman at the moment, with the attack on Atlantis, the attempt to free Orm and the issue with the Dead King it seems like the king of Atlantis won't be able to make it out of this alive. The art is superb and unlike others on the interweb, I really like the cover. There is one scene which shows you how powerful Aquaman really is.

    The Bad

    As mentioned previously, there is A LOT of things going on, and with the way things are laid out it can get really confusing, the panels seem packed tightly and that is just the real problem to me.

    The Verdict

    Overall, I really enjoyed the issue and Johns keeps this story going so well, and frankly I am excited for next month.

      This review originally went up on my blog here. This is part of a double review of issues #22-23.I keep saying this and I never get tired of it: Geoff Johns’ two years on Aquaman for the New 52 have been nothing short of phenomenal. From the very first issue, he has been turning out a great story and has worked with artists who’ve really gone the lengths to make Aquaman come across as a badass, kickass, and really fun character to read about. It wasn’t until the Throne of Atlantis crossover with...
