About this Collection

This second volume of Aquaman and the Others, part of DC's New 52 era, collects issues #6-11 of the 2015 series. The team, including the Prisoner of War, the Operative, and Ya'Wara, faces a new threat tied to ancient Atlantean artifacts, forcing Aquaman to confront his own past and the alignment of Earth's mystical energies. The story delves deeper into the origins of the Others and their connection to the King of Atlantis.

In "Alignment: Earth, Part 1," Aquaman and the Others face a dire threat when Dominick breaks free from Gary Korec’s control—only for Korec to have already sent launch codes to Mayhem, triggering a nuclear missile strike the team may not survive. Written by Dan Jurgens and illustrated by Lan Medina, with inks by Allen Martinez and Wayne Faucher, colors by Matt Milla and Pete Pantazis, and letters by Rob Leigh, this pivotal issue unfolds with urgent stakes and escalating tension. The cover by Ivan Reis and Joe Prado captures the moment’s intensity.
