Aquaman Vol. 3: Crown of Atlantis (Rebirth) by Dan Abnett

4.0

This starts out strong with the villain Warhead showing up. He is able to telepathically control people and he has these people attacking Aquaman. It's great action and I think the villain is great. The next bit of story is Aquaman is asked to investigate some strange happening in the water. There are horrible monsters at this research center that are killers. Aquaman finds that it's a gate to a planet of water, a whole different world.

This is a good story. It takes up most of the book. The marine fighters who can turn into sharks are there. They are pretty odd. There is a lot of fighting and then a resolution to the plot.

Then the plot goes stupid. I think they have had Arthur fight in Atlantis for his throne 2 or 3 times already since the New 52 started. Well, they are doing it once again. This story is so overdone and boring at this point. How many times can Arthur fight for the Throne of Atlantis before he just stops. This is ridiculous. I am not looking forward to the next volume because of this. Ugh, really. I hope this story line doesn't take too many issues to resolve. I'm hating it already. That is only one issue in this volume and the rest of the story was good. I was pleased with this, but I do hope it gets better in the future and not worse and I would love a new storyline that hasn't been done to death.
