Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis
DC · 2006–2007 · 18 issues
About the series
In the wake of DC's Infinite Crisis, this 2006–2007 series reimagined Aquaman’s mythos with a sword-and-sorcery bent, following a new, amnesiac hero named Arthur Joseph Curry as he navigated a transformed Atlantis. Written primarily by Kurt Busiek and Tad Williams, with art from Shawn McManus and Butch Guice, the book blended high fantasy with superheroics, exploring the legacy of the original Aquaman through a darker, more mystical lens. Though short-lived at 18 issues, it remains a distinctive chapter that reshaped the character’s world for a new era.
