Lot Overview:
A king betrayed. A throne in chaos. A hero redefined.

This 3-issue lot launches Peter David’s iconic 1994 Aquaman run, where the King of Atlantis ditches the orange spandex in favor of armor, attitude, and a harpoon hand. Starting with issue #1, Arthur faces:

• Rebellion in Atlantis

• Deep-sea political intrigue

• Brutal confrontations with enemies and allies alike

• A much darker, more mythic rebranding of Aquaman’s legacy

If you only know the character from Super Friends… this is the run that shattered that image for good.

Condition Notes (VF/NM Estimate):

• Covers: Glossy and vibrant, minimal surface wear

• Spines: Tight bindings, may have 1–2 faint stress lines

• Corners: Sharp with very light edge softening

• Interior Pages: White, crisp, unmarred

• Bagged & boarded individually

Why This Set Still Reigns:

• Ground-zero for modern Aquaman mythology

• VF/NM = excellent condition for display, resale, or grading

• Issue #1 features key visual redesign and major tonal shift

• A fan-favorite era that heavily inspired DC Rebirth and elements of the Aquaman film

From the Reaper’s throne room — blood, betrayal, and saltwater rage.
