What's new? Black Manta is trying to get the old Atlantean relics from "The others", a team of which Aquaman used to be a member. These four issues pack a whole lot of action, while still leaving some room for character developement, as Aquaman's past and his relationship with Black Manta is explored. The members of The Others don't really get much exposition, sadly, but they do have their own moments, heck, even Mera gets to do badass stuff.
The art? Ivan Reis continues to grow on me. His art is fantastic, seriously, there's really not much else to say, since I've not a single complaint about it! And if you are into it, there are loads of fights in these four issues, and they look fantastic, Black Manta and Aquaman still the show, but even the others get their, smaller, chances to shine.
I really have no complaints about these four issues. The pacing is fine, there's a lot of action, there's backstory... It has anything you could want... Except Nightwing, there's no Nightwing in here.
Easily 10 Aqualads out of 10.
