Arthur can remember who he was and his only memories are the ones from the people he just met but soon he will realize they all are connected to a bigger purpose.
A new direction for the series begins and to be honest is not that different from previous ones.
Kelly Sue DeConnick opens her run by following the new status quo created for the character during the last crossover Drowned Earth. Now Arthur lives under a few new names (curiously enough, all of them beginning with the letter "A") and is trying to help the people who found him. There's a certain amount of mythology being developed here and, interestingly enough, is pretty different from the usual connected to Atlantis which was heavily implemented during Dan Abnett's run which gives this new story a kinda fresh start.
But let's be real, is not the first time that Aquaman is forced to be away from Atlantis to find a new life. This has happened several times in the past and in fact, it also happened recently during Abnett's run so, while some of the ideas have a bit of a novelty, the overall feel of the arc is rather familiar.
Robson Rocha handles the art and is pretty solid thanks to his clear storytelling and expressive characters.
This is still well-written and has a decent set-up but I still wouldn't call it particularly great nor original. Let's see how it continues though.
