In 2011, DC Comics opted to do something unprecedented. They cancelled their entire lineup of comics and rebooted their universe, setting every comic back to issue Number One. Fifty-two titles launched, referred to as the New 52. Now, since that first month, titles have been canceled, and new ones have replaced them, but I wanted to take a look back at the original 52 and rank the best books from that list.

I will be taking the entire run of these comics into consideration. So the nineteen issues of I, Vampire and the 50 issues of Green Lantern both have the same weight.

So, let's turn back the clock to 2011, when none of us had seen the majesty of the Avengers, and those New Year’s sunglasses with the year on them had just started to look really stupid.

10. Aquaman

For the Number Ten spot, I was seriously divided between this book and Green Lantern, and for similar reasons.

Both were series that started out incredibly under Geoff Johns and Ivan Reis and slowly dropped in quality after their departure. Buuuuuuut because the post-Johns Aquaman is better and because the New 52 Green Lantern book was really just an epilogue to Johns's previous six years on the character, Aquaman earns this place.

I love Aquaman, but it’s hard to attract interest in him, because he's such a target for mockery. The book's real strength was in the relationship between Aquaman and his wife, Mera. As a relationship book with some superheroing, it worked incredibly well.

Although I do have to take issue with the scene where Aquaman claims he "doesn't talk to fish". Because, pal, you TOTALLY talk to fish.
