First Look at the cover for AQUAMAN #8

You’ve already seen artist Ivan Reis’ character designs for The Operative, Vostok-X and Ya’Wara as part of the lead-up to the launch of AQUAMAN’s new storyline, “The Others.” This Wednesday, the wait is over as “The Others” makes its inaugural splash in AQUAMAN #7.
 
“Aquaman vs. The Others! Ya’wara, the Operative, Vostok-X, P.O.W. -- if these are allies from Aquaman’s past, why is the Sea King in such terrible danger?” teased series editor Pat McCallum about the upcoming arc. “It’s a pivotal chapter in the story that will shatter Aquaman’s world!”
 
To continue the building excitement for “The Others,” take a first look below at the cover for AQUAMAN #8 by Ivan Reis and Joe Prado. 


GEOFF JOHNS ON “THE OTHERS” IN AQUAMAN

“Conceived in a controlled test aboard a Russian space station, the man known as Vostok-X was genetically designed to be the perfect cosmonaut. Heightened endurance, enhanced strength and intelligence and most importantly to the scientists overseeing the project, he was psychologically programmed through intense experimentation to embrace human isolationism. Vostok struggles with making emotional connections with other people. 


“He is equipped with a jetpack that enables him to fly, though not at tremendous speeds, and a helmet that allows its wearer to breathe in any environment. 

“Vostok-X was the tenth attempt at creating the perfect cosmonaut. The others are said not to have survived.


"Vostok-X has not been seen for years.”
