--Previous Message-- : Though I'm not fond of the new arcs : (replacement AQ and all) He writes it well. : It's just not my Aquaman. : : I recommend PAD's series 1-25 which were : outstanding. PAD was on until issue 46. I : loved all of his work. After that Larsen : sank the title with piss poor : charactizations and due to some part on the : editor Kevin Dooley. : : This current vol. #4 issues 1-14 sucked. It : had promise, but moved at a snails pace and : never seemed quite right for the title. When : the Sub Diego storyline broke, that's when : the title became very interesting and it was : still, when Arcrudi was writing it. I still : don't see why they were going to let it : drop. : : My main problem with the current creative : team is I don't want Conan under the sea. I : want Aquaman and if Conan the barbarian is : your cup of tea then by all means jump in : for a swim. : : P.S. Welcome to the board. Visit and post : often. : : -S- : : --Previous Message-- : Hell yeah I'd recommend Aquaman. Kurt Busiek : is really doing great things with the...lore : of Aquaman. What I mean by that is AQ is : kinda outta the picture right now and : there's a replacement (who's intresting : enough). This sounds like typical DC crap, I : know, but it was a stroke of genuis on KB's : part to take AQ away from the scene so's he : can focuse on who AQ is without dealing with : the telepathy, waterhand, Atlantis, and what : not. Each issue just keeps getting better : and better. And if you ever go to pick up : any back issues I'd recommend starting with : 15 on up of this volume and of course PAD's : from the previous volume. I'd stay away from : the first 12 issues of this volume they were : borderline crap. Started out good with great : ideas but...*shaking head* it all went to : shit. : : --Previous Message-- : Hi guys, I'm planning on picking up Aquaman : and just wanted to know how KB is portraying : Aquaman. I don't mind KB's writing as long : as he stays away from Thor! Anyways, do you : think it would be wise to pick the Aquaman : series up? : : I'm a Marvel (don't really like what Marvel : is doing right now) fan reintroducing myself : to the DC environment. Last time I read : Aquaman he was sporting a Blue uniform with : different waves on it. I believe this was a : 4 part mini! : : Thank You : : Skyclad : "Prince Of The Poverty Line" : : : : : :
