The volume includes issues #0, #14-17, and material from Justice League #20-21, as the King of Atlantis must defend his crown and his kingdom against a devastating coup.
In "Throne of Atlantis Prologue," Aquaman faces the truth behind a devastating betrayal as he uncovers Vulko’s role in provoking the war with the surface world. With the fate of Atlantis hanging in the balance, Arthur must confront both his brother Orm and the treachery within his own court. Written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Ivan Reis with dynamic inks by Joe Prado, Paul Pelletier, and Sean Parsons, this pivotal issue builds toward a throne reclaimed—though not without deeper shadows ahead. The cover by Lucio Parrillo captures the epic scale of the conflict in striking detail.
In the depths of the ocean, Aquaman confronts Orm about his intentions toward the surface world, while on land, Amanda Waller maneuvers to enlist Black Manta for the Suicide Squad.
In "Throne of Atlantis Chapter One," a mysterious missile test gone awry sends shockwaves through the ocean, triggering devastating tidal waves that flood Boston and Metropolis. Aquaman, sensing the unnatural force behind the attack, realizes the true threat may not come from above—but from the depths, where Atlantis stirs with long-buried intentions.
In "Throne of Atlantis Part Two," Aquaman, Batman, and Mera race against time to save Gotham from catastrophic flooding caused by Atlantean forces. With Vulko revealing Orm’s vendetta against the surface world, the Justice League faces a choice: intervene or let Arthur try to end the conflict before it escalates further.
In "Throne of Atlantis Chapter Three: Friends and Enemies," Aquaman finds himself torn between stopping a war and protecting his kingdom, leading to a tense clash with Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman as he tries to prevent a full-scale conflict. With Orm summoning Atlantean forces to counter the League, the situation spirals—forcing Cyborg to call in help before the battle consumes them all.
In "Throne of Atlantis Chapter Four," Cyborg receives a crucial upgrade from his father, enabling him to dive deep and rescue the captured League members from Orm’s grasp. As Aquaman and Batman venture into the terrifying unknown of the Trench, Cyborg’s newly enhanced abilities face their first true test in the brutal battle for Boston.
In the fifth chapter of *Aquaman: War for the Throne*, Arthur Curry faces a devastating truth—Vulko orchestrated the missile strike that plunged Atlantis into war. As the battle rages between Ocean Master’s forces and the reinforcements, the Justice League arrives to shift the tide, leading to a final confrontation between Arthur and Orm. With Orm defeated and the throne within reach, Arthur turns his focus to the man who betrayed him.
