Aquaman #6
In "Tyrant King," Aquaman steps into a storm of betrayal and magic as Jurok Byss and King Shark lead the Undercurrent in a desperate fight against Rath’s forces. When a transformed Kadaver unleashes a wave of sorcery turning Drift soldiers into monstrous allies, Aquaman must confront the chaos while Murk closes in to finish him. Meanwhile, Leot and Urcell’s bid to unseat Rath ignites a final, desperate power struggle beneath the sea—where the Abyssal Dark now answers to a king who has no intention of surrendering his throne. Written by Dan Abnett and illustrated by Robson Rocha, with inks by Daniel Henriques and Danny Miki, colors by Sunny Gho, and letters by Travis Lanham, the cover by Joshua Middleton captures the rising tide of conflict.
