Even the covers look flat and lifeless. The ones that are supposed to have dynamic poses don't look like they even carry weight or impact. Shame.
Final issue, leading directly into the Aquamen #1 launch! It’s villain versus villain as Black Manta fights to stop Devil Ray, whose eyes are set on Atlantis but whose ambitions might very well bring about the end of the world. Will Manta finally be able to own his roots, his power, and his flaws to save Atlantis…and himself?
Black Manta #6 may be over, but Black Manta will be seen next in the Aquamen book coming out on February 22. I'll for sure be reading. So, see you then! Read Full Review
Brown crafts a well written series finale that includes a lead in to the upcoming Aquamen series. Read Full Review
Black Manta sails into its final issue keeping the same energy it's had all along, adding new levels and insights to the rough around the edges title character without sacrificing who or what he is along the way. This series shows how to go about tackling a book that is about a pretty hardcore villain while also speaking to relevant topical issues with some superhero flair. Read Full Review
The ending comes off somewhat abrupt, but it did wrap up the subplots to a reasonable degree. Brown leaves plenty of possibilities open for further stories for Black Manta, maybe some of which will be explored in Aquamen? Read Full Review
It's the final issue before this series spins out into Aquamen in two weeks, and the conclusion of Black Manta's adventure is compelling if a bit overstuffed. Read Full Review
Black Manta #6, despite its somewhat abrupt ending that leaves a great many of loose ends, is somehow better than the entire run of the series to date. Read Full Review
meh. It's okay tbh. not worth your time reading this.
I honestly came into this review expecting to have a ripe racist review to make fun of because this is ComicBookRoundUp after all, but literally no one has reviewed this book. And you know, that's fair. The art and the writing on display are worthy of abandonment. I really didn't enjoy this series, and I hope Aquamen is much, much better.
painful dialogue
