A strong second issue in a story arc that brings a lot of horror vibes. Read Full Review
This has been a really fun and different arc than a normal Aquaman story. I like what Abnett's doing and appreciate the horror elements he's added to make this arc feel so fresh. Read Full Review
We get a slightly horror-themed issue of Aquaman here, and it worked very well. Abnett teases an intriguing mystery and his mature, confident storytelling rubs off on the main character. Briones' art was excellent as well. Read Full Review
Mix Aquaman with a healthy dose of 1987's The Abyss and you basically have the "H2.0" storyline. The name is a little dumb, but the execution sure isn't. Read Full Review
The final pages ramp up the mystery even more by throwing a grim little curveball into the proceedings, and while this latest story definitely serves as a noticeable departure from the high-stakes political machinations of the early arc, this still remains a reasonably intriguing underwater horror diversion. Not quite Aquaman at his finest, but still a thoroughly enjoyable read. Read Full Review
This story is to be continued for at least another issue, which may its biggest crime. Not a wholly bad comic book, just not a lot more than what we got last issue. Maybe I shouldn't have so many expectations, but what can I say? I had a very entitled childhood. Read Full Review
A fun story and a fun take on Aquaman. Dan Abnett is doing a great job putting the characters in different storylines rather than sticking to the tried and true.
Dead Water was one of the highlights during the latter new52 Aquaman series. It's great to see him back, and H2.0 is gearing up to be one of the best arcs in Abnett's Aquaman run so far.
SCORE: 8
I just want to know... while Dead Water was beating the crap out of Aquaman.. why Aquaman thought that they should cut off it's escape routes... He didn't need to escape - he was winning. And then.. just by doing that.. it made him leave? Silly.
