Aquaman #73

In "Power Game," Aquaman breaks free from Valgos' control and confronts the villain directly, but the victory comes with unsettling consequences—while the threat is ended, Tempest vanishes without a trace and Dolphin witnesses something deeply disturbing. Written by Dan Jurgens and illustrated by Steve Epting, with inks by Norm Rapmund and colors by Noelle Giddings and Digital Chameleon, this 2000 issue delivers a tense, character-driven moment in Aquaman’s story. The cover, a striking piece by Mike Kaluta, captures the moment’s intensity.
