About the author
I write comic books! Growing up, I always wanted to write comics, but I ended up trying my hand at fiction first. I got my MFA from Columbia University, published a book of short stories with The Dial Press in 2006 called Voodoo Heart, then finally broke into comics in 2009 and haven't looked back since. I've worked extensively for DC Comics, writing such titles as Batman, Detective Comics, Justice League, the comic event books DC Dark Knights Metal and Death Metal, and Swamp Thing, among others. I've also created a number of series with some great co-creators and partners -- books like We Have Demons, Clear, Night of the Ghoul, Nocterra, American Vampire, Wytches, the Wake, AD: After Death, and more... I live in NY with my wife, Jeanie and our three boys. I am also a big fan of Elvis Presley.

If Aquaman has often been the brunt of jokes in the DC universe, here he stands out and is celebrated in a way that he deserves.... a fitting culmination to the great run he has had over the past two years and a real boon to the often troubled Justice League brand.
The Plot: Aquaman, Wonder Woman, other Justice League members are searching are searching for a rumored Graveyard of the Gods. As legend tells this is the place the where gods would dispose of there human form, but it's rumored Poseidon the actual god is down there. They find a graveyard of ships from the past that got lost in there searching. When they arrive they find something they did not expect, they find the entrance to the Graveyard of the Gods is opened with a trail of heat signatures. It is reveals that the Legion of Doom have released alien gods of the ocean from other planets that were trapped by Aquaman's ancestors and they want revenge on earth. They start by a massive flood of the Earth then they release a new Kraken that infects the flooded waters where if the breathe in the water it turns you into a controllable sea creature who's goal is to drive you into the waters to change more. Evacuations have started in Gotham with people going to the highest towers to get flown to higher ground, Jim Gordon in an emotional scene is dragged down to the water by sea creatures as he saves a family. Superman has a force wall over Metropolis that keeps most of the water back. Atlantis is the first place hit having only Mera and an imprisoned Ocean Master survive. Aquaman rushes full steam ahead and is easily defeated not knowing the true power of his enemies and his powers are taken and given to Black Manta Aquaman's greatest foe and member of the League of Doom. Can the justice league survive and can a powerless Aquaman prevail a Drowned Earth?
What I Liked: The writing and theme work is so good the overall theme for Aquaman is exploring new oceans and ideas, plotting and finding the unknown. The Sea creature reminded me of Cthulhu like creatures and there were nods to the Trench. I liked that Flash get's infected but is able to stave it off longer than anyone due to his metabolism. Jim Gordon turned into a sea creature is powerful and to his character. Ocean Master's dialogue to Mera that convinces her to trust him to fight for Atlantis. The ending is pretty good and satisfying, there's a real nice double cross at the end. Really nice character study on Aquaman in the Graveyard of the Gods.
What I Disliked: The art especially the wide drawings closeup are just fine but 80% I was just turned off by the art. There needed to be a synopsis especially on the Teen Titan book I was very lost on what they were doing and it took me a couple of pages to get oriented, I was a little bummed to only see one of those characters do anything further in the novel.
Recommendations: If you are up on current comics then you should definitely read this. If you are not you might be lost for a little bit because there is no real synopsis, but the writing is really good and it doesn't take too long. If you're a fan of Scott Snyder's writing like in the Court of Owls, End Game, and White Knight then this is a great graphic novel that shows off his skills. I rated Aquaman & Justice League: Drowned Earth 4 out of 5 stars.
I also like the material the book was made from cause it was hardcover and the paper is like newspaper but stronger.
I think what docked a star for me was some of the inconsistency in the art and story. There's one issue smack-dab in the middle where the art goes from regular to green tones where there's a lot of floating heads (yeah, it's as weird as it sounds). It just didn't mesh with the rest of the story. And then when the art switched back, it's as if that issue never happened. It was kind of confusing. Maybe it was a special edition? But I couldn't find anywhere where it said that (I could totally have missed it though).
But other than that, I did really like the story! It was fun and fast-paced with lots of action.

Overall though the book quality is good and I'd recommend it if you have checked the content and ensured minimal overlap.
Haven't read it yet so might amend this review once I've read it
Merci! c'est toujours un plaisir d'acheter avec AMAZON!!!
Story runs smooth and good thing is that you don't need much of a previous story foundation to know what's exactly going on. Sure, some points are confusing like how Batman lost his arms and legs and who is Jarro and if I am not wrong he called Batman, Dad :O except few questions its a simple, understandable and pretty enjoyable read.
Batman.. a always go getter and no quitter. DC's excessive use of Joker in Batman story is one of the reason why I quit reading Batman. Here Batman goes by his name and in most of the book I felt like it is a Batman story until Aquaman properly arrived. Batman is everywhere... connecting with other, giving instructions, fighting Lex in Lex's suit, defeating Sinestro and Joker, saving Wonder Woman from Cheetah, help in launching Atlantis, putting his life to save Totality, try to stop death Kracken et cetera.
Another as usual moto of villains. Again few villains try to destroy the world. They nearly succeeded in it and turned the whole human race and meta-human race into some giant fish monsters. I never understand how come Green Lanterns never hear of these kind of threats. They have been in cosmos for mighty numbers of years and yet when these kinds of threats come their history database fails.
Aquaman Saves All. Surely, it was bound to happen but he seemed pretty weak here. In most of the book he literally did nothing except his impressive ideology and high sacrifice in the end. After movie, I have been developing a taste for Aquaman comic books. This is my first experience of any book where Aquaman got that much footage. It is a good experience but I hope for better.
I may be biased but I don't want any writer to portray Superman weak against any deity or god or human. He nearly was killed. That's seems bit impossible that any random villain can come and just beat the hell out of him.
Story was good. I wouldn't say it's great epic or a must read but definitely enjoyable. On some pages art is funny but overall it's beautiful.
Its hard to decided what should be the rating but I would settle with overall 3/5.
At some point, there are too many subplots and things to do that sounded a bit artificial.
It is worth reading, sure, but not my best read from the Justice League.
