    In the Shadowy Depths of Atlantis last edited by Xoloilot on 11/15/20 05:51AM View full history

    Aquaman settles back in New Venice until it is suddenly and totally destroyed by Ocean Master. The tragedy catapults Aquaman back to Atlantis, where he discovers that ancient talismans dating back to Arion's time are missing!

    Ocean Master (Orm) attacks Aquaman's home in New Venice. Orm is now much stronger and has Aquaman on the ropes but then disappears in order to further torment Aquaman with the knowledge he can kill him at any time. Meanwhile the people of Atlantis are rebelling against Aquaman's former policies. Unfortunately this could result in a war with the surface world and to make matter worse the Thierna Na Oge people are believed to have stolen the the seal of rule in Atlantis. Without this it seems likely that war is inevitable. Aquaman tries to retrieve the seal and has to wear a new costume so that he can not be recognized by the people that have him as well as it is a black ops mission that the current king of Atlantis Vulko can not be tied to.

     There only one thing of note in this book and that is the new Aquaman costume seen on the cover.  Other than that is is just an uneventful book.  Not particularly exciting or bad.  I gave it two and a half stars.  Aquaman is distracted by Ocean Master (Orm) as his land on home is destroyed.  The whole battle is just odd and not quite right.  First Mera scolds him like he is goofing around with Orm instead of preventing the destruction of the town.  Like, Aquaman could just ignore him.  Then ...
