AQUAMAN: THE ATLANTIS CHRONICLES DELUXE EDITION tells of Orin and Shalako, their descendants, and how a once-great civilization rose and fell like the tides, producing heroes and villains and culminating in the birth of the man who would grow to become the King and champion–Aquaman. When the continent of Atlantis was struck by a meteor, the surviving cities of Poseidonis and Tritonis used an unusual combination of science and magic to protect the people. While King Orin had faith in the science that let his people thrive underwater, his brother, King Shalako, rejected science in favor of worshipping dark powers, setting up a conflict that would mark all who followed. Only Aquaman can resolve the clashing of the two cities! Collecting THE ATLANTIS CHRONICLES #1-7, this sprawling generational saga is written by Peter David (AQUAMAN, YOUNG JUSTICE, SUPERGIRL) and illustrated by the Spanish artist Esteban Maroto (AMETHYST, ZATANNA, Creepy, Eerie).

Discover how the King of Atlantis came to be the benevolent ruler of the legendary kingdom through the storytelling of Eisner-award winning author, Peter David. Since his dramatic debut in the 1940s, Aquaman has gone from admired hero to legendary icon. Able to breathe both in air and water, the King of the Seven Seas has fought villainy from the deepest depths of the oceans to the outer limits of the galaxy. This volume collects AQUAMAN: TIME AND TIDE as well as AQUAMAN #0-8 and tells of how this scorned baby of Atlantis became one of the greatest heroes in the world. From his abandonment on a reef to his upbringing by a dolphin to his first encounter with surface dwellers, this book chronicles the origin and ascension of the mythical figure known as Aquaman.
