Bane of Kings writes a review of the second volume of Geoff Johns’s Aquaman series. Even though the Hardcover is not yet released yet, all have been read as individual issues apart from #0, which is not included in this review but included in the graphic novel.

Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the first comics round-up for May.
“After the excellent Rebirth, No Fear sadly fails fails to stir any interest. IDW,s G.I.Joe reboot goes full steam ahead with Chuck Dixon’s second G.I.Joe volume while Mike Costa and Christos Gage turn out an absolute cracker with the first volume of Cobra. And against all expectations, the Captain Marvel reboot disappoints spectacularly.” ~Shadowhawk
“Aquaman is consistent whilst Justice League falters, and Superior Spider-man has a really strong opening four issues.” ” ~Bane of Kings
