review:
'Aquaman, Vol. 1: Unspoken Water' by Kelly Sue DeConnick with art by Robson Rocha takes an amnesiac Arthur Curry and does interesting things with the character.

In the wake (no pun intended) of the Drowned Earth storyline, Aquaman has lost his memory of who he is. He washes up on the shore of a small fishing village and is rescued by a young woman named Callie. Now he's wearing familiar colors, but goes by the name of Andy. Callie and the rest of the people in the town are not who they seem to be at first, and as Andy/Arthur regains his memory, he finds himself in a cosmic fight.

I like this story arc. I like the idea of Aquaman more than some of the execution of that idea. Here, we get an interesting retooling. The art is also interesting in this, with some epic splash pages and just all around nice art.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
