Jackson has gotten everything he always wanted since he became part of Aquaman's family but things might change abruptly once that something strange happens in Atlantis.
For one, I'm really glad to have a book focusing on more Aquaman characters. Mind you, I wasn't particularly impressed with Black Manta's recent title, but I've liked most of the work that Brandon Thomas has created recently and I'm all for supporting more LGBT books so I'm totally on board with the premise of Jackson getting a starring role.
There's a very positive vibe going on right from the beginning showing how well-liked Jackson is around the community, not only from superheroes but from his own home. Is especially enjoyable to see how nicely the protagonist interacts with the rest of the Aquafamily and Thomas is able to depict all of them pretty appropriately along with a nice dose of humour to complement the dialogue.
And of course, Jackson's sexuality is also explored with the appearance of a new love interest that might cause a bit of drama with his mother but is all in a very light manner. The whole positive vibe might be a bit on the nose but this is all in purpose to contrast to what happens at the end of the chapter and makes me wonder what's going on now.
Diego Olortegui handles the pencils and his work is beautiful with gorgeous and expressive characters along with a vibrant style that follows the story perfectly.
Good beginning, can't wait for the next one.
