Aquaman | The Comics Pals Book Club

In anticipation of the Aquaman film, we chose to read Geoff John's Aquaman for this month's Book Club! Johns redefines the King of the Seas for the modern era and pits him against foes - both old and new - that force him to tackle his past and determine his place in the world, both on land and in the seas.
