There's an inevitable problem here in that this is the climax of the current story arc, and there aren't terribly many ways it can go by this point. It starts out well, though, with an issue written from the villain's perspective, and giving some insight into what drives him, even as we see his sanity crumbling. Then he turns into an insane, inhuman, creature, blunting any moral question as to how he should be dealt with. Even so, we do see Aquaman struggling with his conscience for a while, but that fades once it becomes clear how far Rath has descended.
As the political intrigue is swept away to make room for the final confrontation, there's a fair bit of Atlanteans saying “well, even he wouldn't dare to... oh, he just has,” and a battle that's quite well done as such things go, but we know where it will end up. Having said which, there's an interesting cliffhanger at the end, and Abnett does a good job with some of the supporting cast, so it perhaps works as well as could be expected.
