Aquaman #18
In "Superpower," Aquaman confronts the mystery of Warhead, a cybernetic warrior whose telepathic abilities were forged for battle but rebelled against orders to kill innocents. As Warhead seeks refuge and autonomy, he turns to Aquaman—drawn by their shared telepathic connection and a desire to protect what they value most. Written by Dan Abnett and illustrated by Scot Eaton, with inks by Wayne Faucher and colors by Gabe Eltaeb, this issue explores the weight of power and the cost of freedom, all framed by Brad Walker’s cover pencils and Andrew Hennessy’s inks.

Aquaman learns the secret of Warhead, a cybernetic being with telepathic powers programmed for war who resisted orders to kill innocents and rebelled against his leaders. He sought out Aquaman, who has similar telepathic powers but is not controlled by others. Through Aquaman, he learns of the military power of Atlantis, and he believes that if he controls Atlantis he could be safe from being controlled by others again.
