In leiu of an actual review (yes, real life is still very hectic) we thought you'd like to know about an Aquaman 101 sale on comixology, starting 19th May (Saturday). The comics are all 99 cents each (dirt cheap, about 50p in English money) for 3 days.
Aquaman is the King of Atlantis. He gets a lot of teasing in popular culture, which really isn't right because he's a great character. He's has several incarnations over the years - clean cut King, husband and father, bearded, hook handed, water handed, back to clean cut, grumpy, heroic, fun loving...he's done it all. He's been in Smallville, as a sort of frat boy version.
Here's the promo poster for the sale:
If you click the picture it should get bigger and more readable.
I particularly recommend any title from 1986 onwards, particularly the ones titles 1994 to 2001, written by Peter David. The 2003 to 2006 issues are also well worth picking up for the Sub Diego storyline, where San Diego falls into the sea, issues 15-20.
Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis has beautiful art and a real dreamy feel to it.
Flashpoint: Emperor Aquaman was awful. Don't bother with that.
If you want to read any more of him, there is currently an ongoing Aquaman series, also available on comixology. Also check our Aquaman and Justice League tags for other books with him in.
It's generally worth checking out Comixology's sales as they regularly have good stuff for rock bottom prices.
