But, i guess i should've known it was bound to happen at some point considering the poor numbers on the book. Though it sucks not having Orin as the main character of the book, the blow is lessened by the fact the he is still playing a major part, and his character is the most interesting part of the book still IMO. And comics pretty much always revert to the status quo, so we can rest assured that he'll be bac some day. Hopefully soon. --Previous Message--

I've always seen the fact that Aquaman didn't have a "replacement character" as a good thing myself. Especially considering pretty much every major hero has had one at some point. It show that he was unique, that there can only be one Aquaman.
: Kurt Busiek has stated he won't be bringin old
: AQ back but I have no doubt he'll be back
: sometime. He's just going through a phase
: that nearly every other hero at DC and
: Marvel has...the replacement phase. It's a
: staple of comics and now our beloved is
: joining the ranks of the elite by having it
: done (about damn time if you ask me) not to
: mention KB is giving AQ a much needed
: quickening by taking Atlantis, the
: telepathy, the hand, the costume and all the
: other distractions out of the picture and
: focusing on AQ lore and his place in the
: DCU. My only hope is that this replacement
: is more like a Azrael then a Kyle Rayner and
: it doesn't take 10 damn years to get AQ
: back.
