Award winning writer Geoff Johns reteams with GREEN LANTERN collaborator artist Ivan Reis to relaunch AQUAMAN!

Aquaman is back to challenge his status as a second-tier superhero. Maligned for years as the man who talks to fish, Arthur Curry stakes his claim as one of the most powerful heroes in the DC Universe in Aquaman Vol. 1: The Trench. As the King of the Seven Seas, Aquaman has sworn to protect his ocean home and there’s been no greater threat to date than what’s to come.
 
They are called the Trench. And they are hungry.
 
As thousands of carnivorous beasts emerge from the ocean’s depths, can Aquaman protect his people from this deadly new threat? And also the surface world that he now calls home?
 
This is Aquaman’s renaissance—a cutting-edge revival of the King of the Seven Seas featuring the creative team behind New York Times best-selling graphic novels Blackest Night and Justice League: Throne of Atlantis!

Praise for Aquaman Vol. 1: The Trench (The New 52)

"Actually, this might be [Geoff Johns's] most impressive feat to date. Genius."--USA Today

"Fresh."--Entertainment Weekly

"Every page drips with humor and all of it is aimed at Aquaman and his considerable character heritage, be it the orange shirt, the power to talk to fish or the second-string super-hero status."--Los Angeles Times Hero Complex

"It's a book that's once again funny, engaging and action-packed. You can't ask for much more than that, especially from a dude who talks to fish."--IGN

"Johns does what he does best here: revamping a character by reviving and modernizing what made Aquaman cool in the first place.... I loved this."--The Onion AV Club
