A moody, powerful page that perfectly captures the weight of the crown! Returning to Atlantis after a long time on the surface, Aquaman finds the city conquered by an army which is secretly controlled by giant jellyfish. Though he rallied the people and forced the conquering army out of the city, he was forced to kill Mera who attacked him viciously, blaming him for the death of her son. Additionally, though Atlantis is free of invaders, they are now surrounded and under siege. Here, we see Aquaman taking the throne for the first time since all of this began, reflecting on whether he's done any good at all. The all-star art team is firing on all cylinders on this impactful page. Pencil and ink on DC Comics art board. 11 1/4" x 16 3/4".
