Aquaman Green Arrow: Deep Target #1 is absolutely a title you could walk by at your LCS. But you'll find yourself pleasantly surprised if you give it a chance. Read Full Review

This isn't like anything else DC is putting out"it's an oddity that never fails to surprise, and I'm curious what craziness awaits us in the next six issues. Read Full Review

Aquaman/Green Arrow - Deep Target #1 is a fun start to the team-up. As a first issue, the story is set up with a nice amount of mystery woven into the comic. Some premier issues can get bogged down with exposition, losing momentum quickly. However, Thomas does so differently, often resorting to letting the reader figure out what is happening on their own. The concept of the plot is ridiculous and chaotic, which is not a criticism at all. The madness of what is happening, with a unique duo working together, means that the book is energetic and unpredictable. Read Full Review

This one's a fun sci-fi adventure, with a concept that's more about the characters than a big high concept. The writing's fun, the art is great, and it's well worth picking up. Read Full Review

Aquaman/Green Arrow - Deep Target#1 feels like a book for nobody, with inconsistent and bland characters, but wonderfully rendering settings and vibrant colors. Hopefully in the next issue, with the premise and set-up out of the way, Thomas can dig into the characters of Oliver Queen and Arthur Curry, and reveal why this is a pairing the audience should care about.

This is a fun issue, with a fun premise that is more of a celebration than any sort of deep exploration of character. Fun comics are great and important. It doesn't quite hit the highest nostalgia moments, but it does show that Thomas is aware of the history of these characters. You'll enjoy Aquaman/ Green Arrow: Deep Target #1 in the way you enjoy an old Silver Age comic or adventure romp. Read Full Review

Aquaman and Green Lantern has a ton of potential, but this entry doesnt do a strong job of reaching those heights. Its even weaker at making a case for sticking with the mini-series. Read Full Review

For Aquaman fans, this might be an interesting premise, but it doesn't really seem to serve Green Arrow/Oliver Queen at all and it feels at times like Brandon Thomas doesn't really know where he's going with things. Ronan Cliquet's art is very nice, however, so even if the story feels messy, at least it's nice to look at. Read Full Review

This confusing and convoluted start took too long to get to our main characters, and did nothing with them once we got them.  I don't know who the target audience is for this book, I just know it isn't me. Read Full Review

So in. This just seems like some whacky bunch of non-canonical fun that I’m absolutely ready to be a part of. Reads like a breeze, the art is fantastic, and the premise is so comic book-ey. Give me more.

Brandon Thomas tosses us readers into a new, exciting team up book & it's great!

I've been waiting for Dc comics, film & tv to start doing more team up based stories & I'm happy that it seems to finally be happening. Thomas throws us into, what may seem confusing at first, a story that, for me, works. Arthur Curry & Oliver Queen are stuck within full blown Freaky Friday situation. Yes, they have the other's powers/abilities, but they even switched their entire social status, Arthur has Oliver's millions in wealth/cash, Oliver is the King of Atlantis, etc, & neither of them know what happened. And that's the big mystery of this story. What happened, who caused it, did either of us cause it, Did it happen before & if so, why is it happening again? All of this is set up even with the villain (s) that show up. But what has me invested in checking out #2 is that the story presents plenty of room for a lot of surprises. Guest appearances, new introductions, creative combinations of power/abilities and hopefully an awesome display of Oliver & Arthur's personalities. Fun 1st issue. more

No clue what's going on yet, but this is a lot of fun. I expected something a little more serious, but I'm pleasantly surprised by this one.

Good story so far. a buddy cop doubled with mystery is a heck of a pitch and I think these two characters are perfect choices for such a book, especially with Green Arrow as the king of team-ups. I'm hoping our villain can live up to the might of these two!

I don't know what is happening, if its out or in continuity, the art is ok and the book is really fun, interested in the next issue

It's incredibly ironic to hear Brandon Thomas have the real Aquaman, Arthur Curry, talk about Atlantis as what "belongs rightfully to him". To come up with that line while he's just as he's busy replacing him in Aquaman: Becoming shows a terrible lack of self-awareness. It's laughable but I can't say I'm surprised.

The story is as dumb as most stories from this guy. Sure, Ollie may have Arthur's powers but arrow-shooting accuracy isn't a super-power so no, it doesn't work like that. Then again, logic was never this guy's strongest suit as we've established. It's fairly obvious what is happening here in terms of the plot. I would've rated it lower but I liked the art and I like the two main characters, both have been treated pretty badly these last few years. Unfortunately, this book doesn't help them very much.

we spent half the issue with them needlessly and nonsensibly fighting. great.

I hope this gets better.
