Review Aquaman #6

An enjoyable issue, Aquaman #6 has an action-oriented
agenda that has little to do with delving deep into angsty character development and more to do with finally returning to the sea. And that's just fine.

The issue closes the first arc with action in the form of Aquaman fighting Superman, as Arthur takes out his considerable frustration regarding his treatment by the surface world on Clark. Ever the gentleman, Clark takes best shots from Arthur and Mera in this issue and gets knocked on his rear. But there is a limit to Big Blue's patience, even though Arthur is right in his assertion that he was framed and something much more awful is really orchestrating events.

For more on this fun book, check out my review for Comic Book Resources.

Show Guide 2017

http://vintagetruckmagazine.com/show-guide-2/
If you're a subscriber to Vintage Truck, Antique Power, or Vintage Fire Truck & Equipment, you receive the annual Show Guide as a supplement. (Non-subscribers can order a copy.) The Show Guide is a compilation of shows around the country (and Canada) that are devoted toward or simply welcome antique tractors or trucks or fire trucks and related equipment.

What's so special about that?

Event organizers can submit the information for their show for FREE! And if you've ever tackled the Herculean task of putting on a car show, antique power show, or service vehicle show, you know that every source of free publicity is a welcome relief for promotion budgets that are never big enough.

You can place your show in the 2017 Show Guide now. The deadline is November 4, so don't delay and please spread the word to other show organizers you know. Submit your information HERE. It's easy, and it's free.
