BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON
I can sum up this comic in one sentence 'the most perfect re-launch title ever made'.
I could not see anyway to improve on this comic book.
* Reintroduced you to a characters powers/history/motivation in an entertaining way.
* The hero of the book performed heroic deeds! (a rarity)
* Best costume redesign of entire launch (looks like original)
* A sub-plot to further intrigue you (remember those?)
Made all 3 of my boys read it (none had EVER read Aquaman before - in fact, all 3 had considered him lame) all 3 loved it and asked when #2 is coming in.
This is what every DC team SHOULD have accomplished with their re-launch. Johns & Reis covered all the bases and I insist that you try this comic!
