Nope, Ardian Syaf Is The New Aquaman Artist (UPDATE x3)

Eddy Barrows it seems is, yes, just the cover artist on Aquaman #15.

Taking over on the interiors from Ivan Reis and Joe Prado as they move to Justice League with issue 15, is Ardian Syaf, who drew the first year of the New 52 Batgirl, and Red Lanterns #0.

In other news, it looks like Fabian Nicieza has been drafted in to script Hawkman #15 from Rob Liefeld's plots, after Rob's Twitter-public flameout. Rob's previous scripter, Mark Poulton, is no longer on the book.

Here are the solicitations and covers for DC in December so far…
