In "Chapter Two: The Vanished Sun," the fragile peace of Poseidonis cracks as civil unrest spreads through the city's sealed domes. Shalako, leading his followers through hidden tunnels, seeks refuge in the ruins of Tritonis—where he channels the power of ancient, forgotten gods to forge a new, hardened sanctuary beneath the sea. Written by Peter David and brought to life with striking detail by Esteban Maroto (pencils and inks), this issue expands the mythos of Atlantis with haunting visuals and escalating tension, all rendered in Eric Kachelhofer’s evocative colors and Gaspar Saladino’s precise lettering. The cover, also by Maroto, captures the eerie grandeur of the sunken world.

Chapter Two: The Vanished Sun
21 pp · Fantasy

In "Chapter Two: The Vanished Sun," civil unrest fractures the fragile peace of Poseidonis, the domed city beneath the sea. Shalako, leading his followers through the dark tunnels to the ruins of Tritonis, wields forbidden power from the dark gods to forge a new, hard water dome—pushing the limits of what the underwater world can endure.

Chapter 3: Transfigurations
22 pp · Fantasy

In "Chapter 3: Transfigurations" from *The Atlantis Chronicles* #2, Orin’s desperate experiment with a serum that grants water-breathing ability ignites a transformation across Atlantis—first in himself, then in the city’s people. When the Tritonians accept the gift, their bodies change in ways that draw the wrath of Shalako, unleashing a curse that marks them with scales, and a deadly retribution follows.
