dark_noldor's Aquaman #68 - Blood Realm review

    Conclusion

    It´s the last chapter of the war between Cerdia, Aquaman and his evil brother, the Ocean Master. Jurgens tries to portrait Aquaman as a just, rigtheous, honorable leader, and even it was gullible to believe that an angry mob would stop and listen to him, Arthur´s speech was good and characterized himself as hero, as a man with honor, worthy of being Atlantis´king (and perhaps to continue with his dream of pacific coexistence). The final fight between Aquaman and Ocean Master was good, especially because of the art, had some nice dialogues too, but the ending wasn´t as I expected, since it was way too easy in count of what Orm showed in the last issue, but it was a fitting end for this arc story. It was good seeing Aquaman embracing a new family or a new way of thinking that he has to put behind some times his duties as king and give more atention to those he loves (maybe that´s a hint that him and Mera will get back together). I really liked the narrative techinique that Jurgens used in this arc story, telling the story in the future, from an outside perspective of whom participated in these events; the interactions of Garth and his grand daughter were very good. Amazing art, decent dialogues and an interesting narrative with good characters and an entertaining plot, this first experience with Aquaman´s sea world was very good and I recommend this!
