Robson Rocha beautifully renders both the characters and the undersea atmosphere. There is a beautiful sense of scale and scope to the panels and the characters are wonderfully expressive. The final pages are amazing and the final image was thrilling. Read Full Review

Now, where's that underwater barber of which Aquaman is so desperately in need? Maybe for the wedding…. Read Full Review

The ending perked me up however. Orm makes an appearance and it is an awesome moment. It is also the cliffhanger moment of the issue. The next issue looks promising. I am looking forward to seeing how this continues. Read Full Review

So while the "new" Aquaman is still fun as a leading man, Aquaman #59 sails some choppy waters. Read Full Review

While I enjoyed the first half of this issue, the second half felt unfocused and forced.  Kelly Sue Deconnick ties a bunch of things into her story, but not everything fits perfectly.  Overall, this was a decent issue with great art, and I can deal with that, though I was hoping for more.

Prelude:
DeConnick's Aquaman has been consistently good recently, so let's see how this issue goes.

The Good:
I enjoyed Arthur and Orm's talk.

Rocha's art is good here.

Interesting development with Aqualad.

The Bad:
Black Manta is used yet again.

Misleading cover and synopsis.

Conclusion:
It's good but I'm tiring over using Black Manta again so soon.

It was fine.

not a big fan of the issues where Aquaman looks stupid but good ending I suppose

Meh, this just isn't too interesting. Every time the story has a chance to go in an unexpected direction, it slides right into the obvious.

I just don’t even care tbh.
