He is Arthur Curry--Aquaman. King of Atlantis. Member of the Justice
League. World leader. Superhero. A bridge between the surface world and
the world below. And to far too many humans, the dictator of a rogue
state. But Arthur and his beloved fiancée, Mera, are determined to prove
to humankind that Atlantis can be a force for peace and justice.
Yet even as Aquaman strives to improve his public image, dark forces
rise from the depths to crush his hopes and dreams. A cabal of Atlantean
terrorists have declared war on their king and the surface world alike.
And the killer known as Black Manta will stop at nothing to settle his
blood feud with the hero he hates above all else.
Can Aquaman stop the tide of distrust and bloodshed? Or to save the
world, will he sacrifice himself?
