Aquaman Artists Announced!

Courtesy of CBR:
The newly announced Aquaman series will re-team Geoff Johns with Brightest Day artists Ivan Reis and Joe Prado, the writer revealed today at WonderCon 2011 in San Francisco.

“I don’t think you can get much better in comics,” Johns said during the DC Nation panel. “Everything the do elevates the characters they work on, and we hope to do the same for Aquaman.”

Announced last weekend during MegaCon, the new Aquaman will mark the seventh series for the 70-year-old character. Although he was left dead with the cancellation of Sword of Atlantis in 2007, the sea king was resurrected during Blackest Night before going on to play a central role in the current Brightest Day series.

Johns has insisted that Aquaman is one of DC Comics’ A-list characters, telling Comic Book Resources in December that, “He’s got to be showcased like that, and he’s got to kick ass like Green Lantern or Batman or the entire Justice League.”

Aquaman #1 is expected to debut later this year.

I've said from the beginning that Ivan Reis needs to be on an Aquaman book!!!

The only thing that bugs me about that quote is that Superman isn't mentioned along with Green Lantern or Batman. Other than that while I probably won't buy the title I am down with Aquaman having his own title again. I consider him to be one of the "magnificent seven" that serve as the foundation of the entire DCU.
