Ok .... Why does Lobell continue to try to team people up with The REDHOOD?? I enjoyed the Bizzaro & Artemis team up but once they left and he became “RED HOOD OUTLAW” I began to enjoy RH 1000 times more! As the issues went on and RH was alone solving things , he was at the height of being one of DC’s badass hero’s. But these last two issues , with him teaming up and then running the ice club with a gang of women , really watered down the Dark, mysterious and tactical ability the RH is about! I’m happy this line is over and hope and pray Lobell gets RH back to being .... An OUTLAW !! Right now Slade Wilson is running with the Teen Titans , it would have been so much more interesting if RH would have had issues blending in with that story! And at this point Robin is a more like what RH was! ............I’m Patiently waiting !

So it’s 5 issues in on a new story line and writer and I have to say that I’m disappointed in the direction that this series is going. I did have high hopes for Ahmed and thought his ideas would continue to build Miles Morales character. Miles is growing up since Bendis which I understand, but has the reality of the world around Miles changed as well? My point is , Miles is in BK , where everyone knows crime is out of control! But when Miles steps out of the Jamaican Beef patty Grocery store ( which was Lame) and saw two gangs shooting it out , why would Ahmed write in an Asian type gang and tombstones goons ... aren’t we in Brooklyn??? Then when Miles takes action and grabs the goon , he mouths off to Miles in a curse line which was repeated through out the issue! ( boring)To top it off , the goon was a White guy who Ahmed made talk in a ghetto thug gangster tone!! With so many issues going on in the City of NY and especially Brooklyn ..... this is the best you come up with?? But it wasn’t all bad as I love the crossover at the end with Shuri and am holding out to see if one of Marvels new favorite Hero’s gets a storyline that better suits him! Until then I will cross my fingers while waiting for #6

I have to say , once the last series ended and we got a writer switch , I thought the title was doomed! But I tip my hat to Deconnick who has given us a story that re-energizes AQUAMAN! Showing the ancient history of this character and of Atlantis has given us a breath of fresh air and has made AQUAMAN my #1 DC comic to read and look forward to!
