In "Once and Future," Arthur Curry reflects on his dual nature—born of the sea yet learning to breathe the air—before facing the Dweller in the Depths, a being who speaks of a future that feels eerily familiar. Written by Kurt Busiek and brought to life with striking art by Butch Guice, this issue blends memory and prophecy in a moment that lingers long after the final page. The cover by Butch Guice captures the weight of that encounter with haunting precision.
