Emperor Aquaman #21 Preview

 

Lolanna may be Mera's mother. Yet Arthur's mother-in-law insists that her daughter is a traitor for loving the King of Atlantis. In her hatred of Arthur, the Crimson Queen deceived him, imprisoned him, and attempted to kill him. Then, she manipulated a god into attacking him. 

Everyone worries Arthur has taken on too much. Yet after competing in the Omega Tournament to free reality from Darkseid's domination, Arthur knows cannot back down. Darkseid will return to take back what was briefly his. And this time, the Omega Tournament will seem like child's play. How will the Crimson Queen attack Arthur next? And is Lolanna willing to go as far as Poseidon to usurp Arthur's power?
