Aquaman, Volume 7: Exiled by Cullen Bunn, Trevor McCarthy
1.0

Ever read a comic so bad you had to stop? Welcome to Aquaman: Volume 7 Exhiled. Cullen Bunn takes over. This might have been good because the last writer was just making 'Okayish" stories. So why not give a new writer a shot? Inject some life into a series that needed it. WRONG. This is the wrong kind of shot the series needed. It's edgy, over the top, silliness. Aquaman is getting attacked by his own people including Mara for the dumbest fucking reason. Once I got to the reveal I stopped reading (about 5 issues in) and just threw this one back into the Library bin.

What I liked: Nothing.

What I didn't like: Everything. Dumb dialog. Aquaman being "edgy and funny" but neither really. Mera being dumb as fuck. The whole empire of atlantis being stupid. The idea behind this is just really weird and doesn't make sense. The art is very very ugly.

Yeah. This might be one of the worst comics I've read this year. This is a must SKIP.
