"Part One:" Aquaman... what can I say... under-rated in many things... over rated in even more. He can talk to fish and is the king of Atlantis. One of the founding Justice League members. In the world of Flashpoint, he's a despot.
Summary: This will be brief... it wasn't that good. and it jumped around in time. 8 months-We see sunken Rome, as Aquaman admires the world that he has sunken. 11 months- We see Geo Force, king of Markovia, who after losing his sister, Terra to Wonder Woman's armies forge a treaty with the Atlanteans. Present- Aquaman is preparing for war with the Amazons, with a nuke. Apparently, Terra did not die, and was recruited by the Amazons and killed Mera, Aquaman's wife. 10 months- geo Force meets with Mera to forge his treaty. We find out here that Aquaman originally was to marry Wonder Woman, but had her mother killed at the wedding. Present-We see that the treaty with Mera was a lie, and it was a trap to trick Geo Force into becoming a weapon for them. Aquaman plans to use Geoforce to trigger the nuke and sink all of Brittain, killing the Amazons. 8 months ago- We see Rome destroyed and sunk by Geo Force's powers wepaonized by Aquaman. Present- Aquaman plans on killing Terra, and then killing Geo Force once its all over.
High Points: It ended.
Low Points: I started it... downhill from there.
Verdict: D-. Listen... stop trying to make Aquaman a badass. Without some form of tragedy, it doesn't work. At all. Any messages for DC, James?
