Originally released in 1993 (and collected as a trade paperback in 1995), Aquaman: Time & Tide was writer Peter David's attempt to make Aquaman a viable character in the DC Universe. That's no mean feat when you consider how many series the character has been unable to sustain over the years. I'm not even sure this revamp was necessary in light of the underrated 1989 Aquaman limited series and Legend of Aquaman one-shot, but I gave Time & Tide a chance because I really do love the Aquaman character ...

A lot of people have given Aquaman a shot, and here Peter David has a crack at it himself. No-one seems to be able to do a lot with it, however.
Aquaman changes to be more standoffish, snootier, more regal. e.g. he becomes a bit more like Namor, the Sub-Mariner, even if not quite as much a wanker as that.

Peter David has written some of those most intriguing comic book story lines throughout the years and this is just one of the many. I enjoyed the silver-age feeling comic art created by a newcomer at the time, Kirk Jarvinen. This trade paperback has survived many years and will continue to do so because of the great team up created by DC.

If you're looking to discover the origins of Aquaman as imagined by Peter David, this is a fine book. Here you'll meet baby Aquaman raised by dolphins, you'll discover how he got his name, and how he came to be a hero. If you're looking for political intrigue from Atlantis, a lot of villans, and action then this book is not for you. This is Aquaman when he had both arms, was clean-shaven, and was just starting out.
