Νέα ταινία της DC που όπως περιμέναμε όσοι έχουμε δει το Justice League: War, θα κλέβει την παράσταση ο Aquaman. Όπως βέβαια είχε γίνει και με το Flashpoint ο τίτλος θα περιέχει το όνομα Justice League για προφανείς λόγους. Η ταινία θα βασίζεται στην ιστορία Throne of Atlantis του new 52 που συναντάται στον τόμο 3 της σχετικής σειράς. Καταπληκτική ιστορία κατ'εμέ και η καλύτερη του new 52 με την Justice League μέχρι στιγμής, μετα το επικό Trinity War. Ο Matt Lanter δίνει την φωνή του στον βασιλιά της Ατλαντίδας. [imdb=tt3878542]

Τιμή καταλόγου: 16,50€ Το κείμενο στο οπισθόφυλλο: Ο ΑΛΛΟΤΙΝΟΣ ΚΑΙ ΜΕΛΛΟΝΤΙΚΟΣ ΒΑΣΙΛΙΑΣ Ο Άρθουρ Κάρι είναι διχασμένος ανάμεσα σε δύο κόσμους. Έξι χρόνια πριν, ήταν ο γιος ενός φαροφύλακα και κάτοικος της επιφάνειας. Ώσπου το πεπρωμένο του αποκαλύφθηκε και ο νεαρός Άρθουρ Κάρι διεκδίκησε το κληρονομικό του δικαίωμα: το θρόνο της Ατλαντίδας. Μα η βασιλεία του ήταν σύντομη. Όταν ο κόσμος της επιφάνειας βρέθηκε σε κίνδυνο, έγινε μέλος της ομάδας των υπερηρώων, της διάσημης Justice League, κι απαρνήθηκε το σκήπτρο του. Αλλά ακόμα και κάτω από την επιφάνεια της θάλασσας, το παρελθόν δεν μπορεί να παραμείνει θαμμένο. Μια μοχθηρή δύναμη οδηγεί τους δύο κόσμους του Άκουαμαν στη σύγκρουση. Ο Άρθουρ θα πρέπει να πάρει πίσω το θρόνο του, γνωρίζοντας πως, αν αποτύχει, δε θα χάσει μόνο το βασίλειό του αλλά και την ίδια του τη ζωή! Οι δημιουργοί GEOFF JOHNS, IVAN REIS, PAUL PELLETIER και PETE WOODS θα μας διηγηθούν μια συναρπαστική ιστορία σύγκρουσης και αμέτρητων προκλήσεων! ----------------------------------------- Να και η πρώτη καθαρόαιμη έκδοση του Άκουαμαν στην Ελλάδα! Στην ιστορία αυτού του τόμου φαίνεται να βασίζεται ένα σημαντικό μέρος της πλοκής της ταινίας που θα βγει σε λίγες ημέρες στους κινηματογράφους. Το plus εδώ είναι ότι εκτός από τον Άκουαμαν στην ιστορία συμμετέχουν και τα μέλη της Justice League, οπότε μέσα στις σελίδες της άψογης έκδοσης της Anubis θα δούμε και τους Σούπερμαν, Μπάτμαν, Γουόντερ Γούμαν και λοιπούς και μη εξαιρετέους συνδικαλισμένους υπερήρωες! Ο τόμος περιλαμβάνει τα τεύχη του Aquaman No.0, 14, 15 και 16 καθώς και του Justice League No.15, 16, 17, συνολικά 180 σελίδες! Το σκίτσο είναι εντυπωσιακό και η μόνη απορία που μπορεί να σας δημιουργηθεί είναι εάν το πάρετε χωρίς να το ξεφυλλίσετε και όταν πάτε να το διαβάσετε αντιληφθείτε ότι υπάρχει μια μικρή διαφορά στην εμφάνιση του Aquaman στο εξώφυλλο με το εσωτερικό του τεύχους: => Είδατε τι κάνει η υπερβολική ηλιοθεραπεία; Να προσέχουμε να μην το πάθουμε κι εμείς! Η έκδοση φαίνεται ιδανική για να μας προετοιμάσει για την επερχόμενη ταινία, ενώ δεν βλάπτει και η χρήση των σχετικών αξεσουάρ που μετατρέπουν την υπόθεση "Άκουαμαν" σε ανδρικό προνόμιο!

Παράλληλα λοιπόν με την προβολή της ταινίας, ένα ακόμα τευχάκι με τον Aquaman από την Anubis. Πρόκειται για το εισαγωγικό Rebirth του Aquaman και περιλαμβάνει τα Rebirth #1 και Rebirth #2. Τίποτε άλλο από μιά μονομαχία με τον Black Manta. Συμπαθητικό προς καλό σχέδιο, το σενάριο στην πεπατημένη, δεν ξεχωρίζει για κάτι. Συνίσταται πάντως σε αυτούς που γνωρίζουν τα βασικά του Aquaman, δεν θέλει ιδιαίτερες γνώσεις.

The comic medium had a lot to celebrate last weekend. Not only did Iron Man 3 usher in blockbuster season with our favorite exoskeletal superhero, but Saturday saw all of the major publishers unleash a metric ton of pro bono product on Free Comic Book Day. With all of these reminders of how fabulous the printed and digital panel can be, Paste decided to sit down and take inventory of the titles that make our Wednesday comic shop jaunts an addictive necessity. After discussing our favorite Marvel Comics yesterday, we’re shifting our attention to the other half of the Big Two to address the best books from DC. While the following list represents our favorite titles here at Paste, we’d love to hear what you’ve been enjoying in the comments below. 10. All-Star Western Writers: Justin Gray, Jimmy Palmiotti Artists: Moritat, Others There’s a leisurely sense of adventure and spontaneity that drives All-Star Western, which is odd considering that Jonah Hex is possibly one of the DCU’s most humorless characters. For example, last month’s issue #19 introduced the time-traveling goofball Booster Gold into the gritty mix, potentially setting up the title’s upcoming shift to modern times as hinted at during C2E2. It’s all in keeping with the colorful directions this title wanders into, as exemplified by Hex’s past dalliances with the Wayne ancestors and Amadeus Arkham. But Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti instill such a solid, unmovable foundation in their grizzled lead, that this title can experiment with as many left-field settings as it wants and still maintain its unmistakable identity. (Sean Edgar) 9. Green Arrow Writer: Jeff Lemire Artist: Andrea Sorrentino And that’s what we call a turnaround. After a lukewarm start in the New 52, Green Arrow has bounced back with style and substance under the stewardship of Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino. In three issues, the pair have laid the foundation of a crafty noir by knocking trust fund brat Oliver Queen from his skyscraper throne onto the street where he battles sociopathic archers. Lemire grounds his characters with the sensitivity and introspection that defines all of his work regardless of genre, but Sorrentino’s heavy line work and Marcelo Maiolo’s bold color choices really make this series fly. (Sean Edgar) 8. Batwoman Writers: J.H. Williams III, W. Haden Blackman Artists: J.H. Williams III, Trevor McCarthy, Others Ambush Bug would probably be on this list if J.H. Williams III set his pencil to him. Williams’ ingenious layouts and rich textures make any title shine, and Batwoman is still the belle of the ball compared to any other comic art available today. Fortunately, Williams and cowriter W. Haden Blackman have also created an absorbing lead in Kate Kane, a pioneering gay icon with a resilient spirit. While Batwoman’s team-up with Wonder Woman to fight Lovecraftian monsters was an undeniable high point, the book has confidently maintained its quality with new penciller Trevor McCarthy and a new arc focusing on the looming government group, The D.E.O., led by the eerie Mr. Bones. (Sean Edgar) 7. Aquaman Writer: Geoff Johns Artists: Paul Pelletier, Others After resurrecting Barry Allen and Hal Jordan, Geoff Johns has become to discarded comic characters what Quentin Tarantino is to forgotten ‘70s actors. With the New 52 launch, Johns performed a different sort of resurrection — bringing glory and coolness back to a character who spent the past 40 years as little more than an easy punchline. Johns writes Aquaman (or Arthur Curry) as a deeply conflicted character, a man torn between his Atlantean allegiance and human heritage. If doubters still existed earlier this year, the exhilarating, action-packed storyline “Throne of Atlantis” shut them up. Moreover, Arthur’s relationship with his wife Mera makes for one of the most amusing pairings in comics in quite some time. (Mark Rozeman) 6. Animal Man Writer: Jeff Lemire Artists: Steve Pugh, Others It’s not easy to take on an obscure character that heavyweight Grant Morrison breathed life into during the ‘80s, but Jeff Lemire does a more than admirable job with his New 52 incarnation of Animal Man. Protagonist Buddy Baker draws his powers from — you probably guessed this already — the animals around him. He’s an established hero/animal rights activist, nearly the opposite of his ultra-humble, almost embarrassing beginnings in Morrison’s tale. But unlike so many other major superheroes, Buddy Baker’s motives and well-being (and really his everything) hinges on his family. That’s why his layover in the hellish realm of “Rotworld,” the massive 18-issue Swamp Thing/Animal Man crossover arc, was so engaging yet emotionally draining, especially with the story’s devastating fallout. Whether Baker’s in superhero garb or street clothes, whether the issue is action-packed or a domestic crawl, you’ll be equally engaged in the world Lemire’s crafted, and that’s more than anyone could have ever hoped for from a hero with a name as generic as “Animal Man.” (Tyler Kane) 5. Fables Writer: Bill Willingham Artists: Mark Buckingham, Others The characters who populate Fables are family at this point. Eleven years into Bill Willingham and Mark Buckingham’s lavish serial about old European folklore icons assimilating into life outside of the storybook, it’s hard to remember a time when Bigby, Snow, and the rest of the old Fabletown crew weren’t growing alongside our own lives. It’s this constant evolution and development that makes Vertigo’s flagship title such a rarity in today’s transient landscape. The current arc about an old flame returned to haunt Snow White taps into the best attributes of the series: a deep mythology, memorable villains, and a tenacious princess who takes more than an apple to bring down. Here’s to another 128 issues. (Sean Edgar) 4. Dial H Writer: China Mieville Artist: Alberto Ponticelli Dial H recalls Vertigo’s prehistory, when the groundbreaking imprint’s launch titles were still published with the DC logo and a “mature readers” disclaimer on the cover. That’s not just because of the beautiful Brian Bolland covers — fantasy novelist China Mieville infuses a cult DC concept with big ideas that are sometimes crazy, sometimes unsettling, but always inventive and unexpected. If Dial H existed in 1991, it would be as beloved today as Grant Morrison’s Doom Patrol or Peter Milligan’s Shade, the Changing Man. (Garrett Martin) 3. Batman, Incorporated Writer: Grant Morrison Artist: Chris Burnham Grant Morrison introduced the best new addition to the Batman family in decades at the start of his epic run, but earlier this year he took Damian Wayne away from us in the pages of Batman, Incorporated #8. It’s the emotional highpoint of Morrison’s seven years of writing Batman, and although the hub-bub surrounding Damian’s death was maybe a little maudlin, the issue itself handled the moment with both power and grace. Morrison’s time with Batman hasn’t been perfect, but the biggest kinks happened years ago (I’m pretty sure I’ve moved four times since that rough all-text issue). With Batman, Incorporated, he’s wrapping up his story in style. (Garrett Martin) 2. Wonder Woman Writer: Brian Azzarello Artists: Cliff Chiang, Tony Akins Gail Simone’s fantastic run on Wonder Woman in the late 2000s proved that Diana of the Amazons still had some life in her yet. Brian Azzarello’s version of the character further proved that Wonder Woman is so much more than the token female member of The Justice League. In Azzarello’s hands, Diana demonstrates the brooding intensity of Batman while retaining the lively spunk of Buffy Summers. Fans of Greek mythology will also get a grand kick out of Azzarello’s incorporation of Zeus, Hermes, Hera and Poseidon into his storylines. Boasting one of the best supporting casts in the New 52 universe, Wonder Woman is a rip-roaringly fun adventure book that expertly mixes action with an ample amount of heart. (Mark Rozeman) 1. Batman Writer: Scott Snyder Artists: Greg Capullo, Others Between “The Black Mirror” and “Night of the Owls” arcs, Scott Snyder has easily risen alongside the likes of Frank Miller, Denny O’ Neil, Paul Dini, Jeph Loeb, and Grant Morrison as one of the all-time great Batman writers. And, so far, he shows no sign of slowing down. Whereas “Night of the Owls” brilliantly expanded upon the mythology of the Wayne family and Gotham, the fantastic “Death of the Family” arc took a trip down memory lane, with The Joker forcing Batman to relive notable moments from their past conflicts. With a current arc involving the shapeshifting Clayface and the new “Zero Year” storyline approaching, Snyder has made Batman the go-to series of The New 52. Like an enthralling TV show, each comic sucks you in and leaves you desperate for more upon finishing the last page.
