Until this one, my favorite was the Batman/Brother Power the Geek story.<br /><br />JMS gets Aquaman. I loved the line where he said that water makes up 70% of the planet and to settle for the 30% would be insane.<br /><br />And that full-page panel of Aquaman summoning all the fish...that was worth the price of admission alone.Randynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-19466466584861147942010-03-22T08:32:46.256-04:002010-03-22T08:32:46.256-04:00Finally got to a comic shop in Columbus (Comic Tow...Finally got to a comic shop in Columbus (Comic Town) on Sunday.

It was interesting to see Arthur be the more physical of the two heroes, while The Demon kept to the background for most of the story, offering up his commentary/rhymes when necessary, until just the right moment when he unleashed his own might. Very cool stuff.Josh Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04898824567492925741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-17022942321711015352010-03-22T04:22:03.201-04:002010-03-22T04:22:03.201-04:00Rob said: "I really liked how all of this sto...Rob said: "I really liked how all of this story took place at dawn, or at night; it gives the feeling that this is taking place in some quiet little corner of the DC Universe.

It's a small thing but done right it does so much for making readers understand why he's one of the 'Big 7'.<br /><br />Glad to be a part of the 'blog team-up too, if there's another Aquaman one in the works you can count me in!IADWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08339648236279349271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-34986206038431994092010-03-22T00:58:03.228-04:002010-03-22T00:58:03.228-04:00If Straczynski wrote an Aquaman series, I think th...If Straczynski wrote an Aquaman series, I think that would be such a blessing. He's such a talented writer adn I can only imagine the stories he has in his head for the character.<br /><br />This issue is one of the best comics I've ever read. I loved it so much.
