Aquaman #23.1

In "Sea Change," Black Manta finds himself imprisoned at Belle Reve as Amanda Waller attempts to recruit him for the Suicide Squad. When the Crime Syndicate orchestrates a massive breakout, claiming the Justice League is dead, Black Manta is forced to confront a world without Aquaman—until a personal betrayal ignites a new fire for vengeance. Written by Geoff Johns and Tony Bedard, with art by Claude St. Aubin and colors by Blond, this pivotal issue unfolds with tense drama and rising stakes. The cover by Paul Pelletier and Sean Parsons captures the moment’s intensity.
