COMICS: Geoff Johns To Exit AQUAMAN Along With Ivan Reis

Wow. Nobody was expecting that. This team made Aquaman interesting for a lot of people.

WHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really liked their Aquaman. I hope the next team can keep things interresting.

I think this is a strange move. For the first time ever Aquaman was cool. They needed more time on the book to really solidify Aquaman as a cool character.
Now he will just fade back into being a lame character

dammit. Hopefully Johns will carry that Aquaman over to Justice League, with Reis following. So far every characterization in JL has been bad, still not sure why either.

Man that sucks because Aquaman has been great! I'd rather he dropped from green lantern since we're just getting another war.

Another good question is where will Jim Lee end up?

Damn, I loved the geoff and Ivan run.

I'll drop the book as soon as Ivan leaves. He is one of my favourite artist.

And thus the ship will sink.

I'm happy as long as Johns stays away from Batman. I wish Paul Dini would write more story lines for Bats.

I was hoping Reis would go to JLA, but that sucks Johns is leaving. Probably will drop it once he goes.

What?! Man I am about to get the series and start it. I heard it was great. I mean, I've personally liked aquaman in general, but now that he is a million times better it stinks that the team who actually made aquaman cool is done with it. Dang.

Sucks, hope the next team can make it as good as it is, but I doubt it.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was making Aquaman cool again!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think Adam Hughes can draw one issue per month.

Jeff Lemire (Animal Man) is working on a new project, could it be Aquaman?

Well, I guess Aquaman will be cancelled now.

Too bad, Aquaman has been one of the better books in the new DCU. I agree with the comments about the Superman books, Supes should always have the best talent available to DC.

That sucks. I read the first issues of Aquaman and it was just what I love about Geoff Johns writing.

He needs to be longer on a title, just look what he did to Green Lantern... (I f[rickin] LOVE that, although there was stuff that was no THAT good, like War of the Green Laterns for example)

Aquaman had the potential to become really epic. I guess that's it...

Good news that Reis is going to draw JL though.

i personally got hooked on aquaman through brightest day. he was portrayed as a man really lost without a place. he has no place on land or sea, but he has his wife and i know its weird to talk about romance with comic books, but i saw their relationship as a strength of the character. the sea has always been romanticized and that worked.

the other half of that is the art. the way his suit was portrayed wasn't pointless orange shirt, but a very regal chain mail armor. it doesn't look any different in concept, but just that added detai,l the golden glow it was not only cool but badass. he looked like a king.

for the series itself Johns has been slowly building up a interesting backstory for Arthur. Channeling the characters anger and frustration and giving him a past that makes him less appealing from like a moral standpoint, you don't like his actions, but through his past i found that he has an arc. He has changed and for the better. Aquaman's past is not really tragic, but regrettable. It's an angle you don't' see often with characters unless they are full out anti heroes which Aquaman is not.

Finally, Johns has expanded the mythology like he has done with Green Lantern. Having me asking questions about the story, just being immersed. The world is still growing and the fact that he's leaving will cut short all the interesting things Johns has been building.

Aquaman is what we call a irredeemable comic. He's better off as a background character in JLA.

One of few good rirles in the New 52

The new 52 is shit
Marvel. NOW! is shit
Save us Indie Comics, you are our only hope.

Put on Snyder!!!!!!!!

FALSE INFORMATION!!! This was just a rumor and Johns tweeted this earlier today...

Hopefully they don't repeat the mistakes they made after Peter David's run on Aquaman. He turned Aquaman into a hardass and they undid it all with the very first issue after David left. The cover had Aquaman sitting on a clam throne with a seashell necklace and crown...

I'd rather he left JLA.
