Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

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.

Absolutely awesome! DC is the king when it comes to comics
I have not yet read Scott Snyder’s justice league run except for this event because I’m waiting for the deluxe edition that’s coming out in December. Now that being said there is a small amount of stuff in here that I’m not sure exactly what’s going on because I haven’t read the rest of his run yet. Now that being said the story is pretty self contained in that you can just jump right and completely enjoy the story like I did. I’m not going to preface the story because most of the other reviews on here have plus you get a run down in the book description so you should basically know what it’s about. With all that out of the way I highly highly recommend this book. The story itself is so much fun, think of it as a summer blockbuster of epic proportions. I am a little biased because I’m a huge aquaman fan as the characters new 52 comics got me back in to comics and made me fall in love all over again with comics. If you’re reading this then I’m sure you’re also a comic fan and I’ll tell you DC is where it’s at with comics these days. DC’s comics to me are just so much more fun and the story’s are so much better than anything marvel has produced in the past decade. If you love superheroes or just comics with great story’s in general pick this one up as I said earlier it’s a summer superhero blockbuster without the long lines and overpriced drinks.

Oh, my. DC has had its ups and downs over the last couple of years, but it has done Aquaman proud... This is a truly epic story... pretty good by the standards of Justice League and absolutely amazing for the story of Aquaman. Decent art, some shining moments for Flash and Batman, but Mera, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman... the heroes of legend and myth are shining stars here. Like many of the great Aquaman stories, it delves into the mythos of Atlantis and the role of the gods and explores how myth has often been twisted over time.

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.

Aquaman and Justice League: Drowned Earth by Scott Snyder is an epic tale of alien gods of oceans determined to see Earth's ocean waters raise and drown the earth, after the oceans on their home planets have dries up or frozen over. Scott Snyder uses the type of story telling that I fell in love with his writing in the first place like his Court of Owls run on Batman, where he starts with a theme and then reinforces it in flashbacks and present action, what I love is there is an over arcing theme but also an individual comic theme as well, he handles this better than anyone in comics, it reminds me a lot of what Joss Whedon did on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel so well in the TV storytelling landscape. This novel feature to many character's to name them all, If you read DC's Metal comics or graphic novel's this story is still dealing with those changes like Atlantis is no on the surface not at the bottom of the sea. I have not read DC's Metal, I read Dark Days: The Road to Metal and was not a fan, you can find that review here https://readingwithmyeyes.wordpress.c... but this work does a good job of catching you up and actually got me excited to finally explore those titles. A thanks to netgalley and DC comic's for letting me download this title, (Note : I was not able to open this title and had to purchase it) I'm an honest reviewer and did not let this reflect in my view at all of this title. It was released on April 16th of 2019.

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 like the story cause it reminded me of a justice league animated series episode. It added more to the aquaman mythology than we originally know. It was really great finding out that there is other gods of the sea.

I also like the material the book was made from cause it was hardcover and the paper is like newspaper but stronger.

Synder’s Justice League epic continues, into a nice crossover with Aquaman during Drowned Earth. Apparently there is at least one mini tie-in issue with Titans that isn’t in this book, but I don’t believe it’s necessary to enjoy this. Snyder continues his epic run, and art by Francis Manapul is beautiful as always. Definitely a worthy read for fans of the DC Universe.

The story was solid, with high stakes and lots of alien battles--just what you would expect from a Justice League comic. I especially liked the parts with Mera--she's just so, so cool. The parts with Aquaman and Batman were pretty awesome as well; I connected to their stories a lot better than some of the other characters.

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lot of overlap
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 5, 2021
A note to anyone buying this it overlaps a lot with vol 2 of justice leauge by Scott snider - I didn't notice till I received it, it does however contain the aquaman issues and one of the books contains a titans issue. I think this was more of an event than a general justice leauege title

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

Reviewed in India on September 9, 2019
I read it two times. Mostly I read comic books two or three times before deciding what I actually fell about it. It became better in the second go.

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.

Reviewed in Canada on December 25, 2019
I liked the overall story... but did not feel very engaged in it. Sometimes you read a story which is good and keeps you hooked, and sometimes you read a story which is good and that's all. This arch was for me one of those stories.
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.
