Because the book is called Aquaman?

If Johns is worth anything as a writer, he'll try to make Aquaman interesting, rather than rely on a supporting cast. Those other characters would not exist without Aquaman, they are nothing without him.

Only if he goes a month without washing it. Or when he's been playing with an octopus.

Please don't tell me that aquaman is still living in a giant spire under an island full of metahumans, because that is whack.


I got no idea, I stopped paying attention to Aquaman around the time he got the stupid hook hand. :smt102

Black Manta should get the ongoing. Hell he's been trolling Aquaman for years and it's awesome.

Somebody needs to. But Johns would probably be involved only if he could use the original team, and it still looks like the Big Three might still be caught up in other $#!t for a little while longer.

I like when a book takes time to focus on the villain and gives us an inside look to their motivation. Bendis has done that Avengers a lot, and Bru's been doing it all along on Cap.
