The Atlantis Chronicles (1990)[I]:
- King and his brother, scientist and priest, an unreliable narrator, and like any history, it is a composition of flaws and man’s attempt at decisions. By the end the city is below the waves, the end of one nightmare.
- Thanks to King Orin they can breathe underwater now. Tritonis has killed its evil king after he cursed them with an aquatic (legs) transformation, though the son Dardenus is at large.

- Continue. Btw, the T’s are now fully mermaid. [Kordax the bastard monster son, a product of Dardenus’ rape]. There’s a great monster below.
- Kordax who can control the sea creatures attacks. Starts with a very useful recap. Battle devolves into chaos. [Cave of Evil].
- An Egyptian tale of the Atlantean invasion of terra firma.
- Years fast forward. Still strife in Atlantis. By the end, there is the death of a king, and possibly a queen, and a lost son (to be named Orin [aka Aquaman methinks]) who is destined to be great.
Time and Tide (1993-4):
- [Flash, Trickster] Introduction to Earth, being called a Hero, and not trusting air-breathers.
- Remembering Aq’s dolphin upbringing.
- Remembering Aq’s stay in Alaska.
- In Atlantis, and first meeting with Ocean Master (nb. prophesied half-brother to Orin, who is from land, but who will forever battle Orin for the destiny of Atlantis).
Aquaman (1994):
- [Garth (Aqualad), Charybdis, Dolphin]
- [ditto] Charbydis was trying to remove Aq’s powers, and use sunk nuclear submarines to poison the world; in defeating C, Aq loses his hand to piranhas.

[I] “Aquaman, …, is a superhero and the ruler of the seas. As the king of Atlantis and other undersea territories, he technically controls most of the planet. His abilities include super-strength, durability, super-speed, staying underwater indefinitely, and telepathy, which he uses to communicate with sea-life. His aquatic nature means he requires water regularly at the risk of dehydration, although he is perfectly capable of staying on land for extended periods”.
