DC / Hanna-Barbera: Aquaman/Jabberjaw Special #1

In short, this was not the book I expected it to be, and I couldn't be happier to be so wrong. Read Full Review

This book services both fans of Aquaman and Sealab 2021, with both a humorous and action packed vibe. So be sure to check this one out. Read Full Review

This wasn't as intense or serious as some of the other DC/HB team-ups, but Abnett found just the right note to strike in capturing the spirit of Jabberjaw and the King of Atlantis. Read Full Review

Just a fun issue all around with no weak spots. Read Full Review

A fun crossover if I ever saw one. Read Full Review

Aquaman Jabberjaw Special #1 is a fun and pleasing issue with a decent bonus story about heroism. The Special's message of desegregation is simple, but it shines with adding humor and compassion. Read Full Review

Dan Abnett's sea-based crossover goes beyond the basic comparisons between these two characters to explore some deeper themes that reside in both franchises. A healthy amount of laughs and solid artwork are let down by some pacing issues and an entirely unnecessary backup. Read Full Review

Ultimately I was supremely underwhelmed with this special. Read Full Review

So much fun! I just need a bowl of Froot Loops, giant spoon, and my PJs to make it a complete return to my Saturday morning rituals. Jabberjaw was one of my faves.

There are generally two types of silly comics - those that are just silly, and those who embrace their silliness and use it to elevate themselves to new heights. Aquaman paired with Jabberjaw is a match made in heaven - you can't help but enjoy it and its goofiness. Most definitely a great, unexpected team-up, I hope Arthur and Neptunes will cross paths sometime in the future!
