"Geoff Johns has described the approach he took to Aquaman as a &amp;quot;risk&amp;quot;. The Justice League writer is working with long-time collaborator Ivan Reis on the title in DC Comics&amp;#039; New 52. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re psyched for Aquaman,&amp;quot; Johns told IGN. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m glad people got what we were doing. &amp;quot;We took a bit of a risk going with a slightly different approach than the traditional superhero book and I think it worked. &amp;quot;I wanted to make it all about the characters first. When you focus more on character interactions, a character&amp;#039;s humour comes out. &amp;quot;I just wanted to make the books a little bit different. If I was just going to write the same books, then it wasn&amp;#039;t going to be a challenge or something new to me. &amp;quot;I wanted to look at every book and approach it differently than I would have prior to the relaunch. I think humour is definitely something that there is a time and a place for, and I think humour really grows out of characters.&amp;quot; Johns said with this in mind he decided to make Aquaman about the hero&amp;#039;s interactions with people in the outside world rather than only other superheroes. Aquaman #3 was released earlier this week. &amp;gt; DC Comics reveals crossover plans "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
