Empire of the Stars

ALL HAIL EMPEROR AQUAMAN, as the iconic DC hero enters a new era courtesy of the superstar team of writer Jeremy Adams and artist John Timms!

Jump into a fresh start for the king of Atlantis...and beyond! After the events of DC K.O., Aquaman finds himself on a journey of self-discovery where he must launch a brand-new mission imbued by Omega Energy—the very essence of conquest.

To reach across the stars with the power of the Blue, our king must first defeat the Crimson Queen and free his friends and family from her evil clutches.

Joining Aquaman are familiar and unfamiliar faces, including King Shark, who has pledged his loyalty to Arthur and joined the ranks of the King’s Guard—the Shiver.

But as they step into the Blue Gate and travel to worlds beyond, these beasts may have bitten off more than they can chew! Plus, Hal Jordan joins Emperor Aquaman for a jailbreak among the stars!

What is Arthur’s ominous connection to the Omega that threatened to tear apart the very fabric of reality in the K.O. tournament? And what does it mean to rule with absolute power? Jeremy Adams and John Timms continue their acclaimed reinvention of DC’s aquatic epic, blending heroism, legacy, and myth into one immersive, high-stakes saga that pushes Aquaman to his limits.
