In "The Others," Arthur and Mera seek answers about an Atlantean artifact from the Trench when Ya'wara, a mysterious warrior from the secretive group The Others, arrives with deadly intent—she believes Stephen Shin is responsible for the murder of Kahina the Seer, one of their own. As old alliances surface and the past resurfaces, Arthur must navigate the shifting loyalties of those who once stood beside him, all while the truth behind Kahina’s death remains buried beneath the sea.

In "The Others Chapter Three," Black Manta's relentless pursuit of the Prisoner of War collides with Arthur and Ya'wara’s desperate fight against Manta’s forces in the Amazon. As tensions rise beneath the surface, Dr. Shin uncovers long-buried ties to Arthur, Thomas Curry, and the man who would become Black Manta—revealing a past that reshapes everything.

In "The Others Chapter Four," Jo infiltrates Black Manta’s hidden base in a high-stakes mission to track him down. As Arthur and Ya’Wara intervene when Manta attacks a prisoner, the tension escalates—Arthur pursues Manta while Mera learns the painful truth about her husband’s past, revealed by Dr. Shin: Arthur’s father was killed by Manta years ago, and in a moment of rage, Arthur unknowingly caused Manta’s father’s death.

In "The Others Chapter Five," Aquaman and his mysterious allies regroup to pursue Black Manta, whose latest move takes a deadly turn when he captures Shin and brings him to the tomb of the Dead King of Atlantis, seeking the location of a long-lost Atlantean artifact.

In "The Others Chapter Six," Aquaman races to stop Black Manta from wielding a dangerous Atlantean artifact, plunging the underwater realm into chaos. As the battle intensifies, The Others and Mera arrive to aid Arthur, leading to a desperate confrontation where Vostok makes the ultimate sacrifice to protect him.

In "The Others Conclusion," Aquaman and the Others close in on Black Manta for a final showdown, but not before Manta slips a powerful artifact into the hands of a shadowy Atlantean faction with their own designs on Arthur’s throne. The hunt reaches its climax, but the real danger may have only just begun.
