Born beneath the waves was Prince Arthur Joseph Curry Jr. the heir to the throne of Atlantis and son of King Arthur Curry, Aquaman, and Queen Seraphina, rulers of the underwater kingdom. Yet Junior's earliest years were anything but peaceful.
Before he reached his first birthday, Black Manta, his father's greatest enemy, kidnapped the infant prince in an attempt to destroy everything Aquaman loved. Using Junior's royal blood in an ancient ritual, Black Manta sought to break the spell imprisoning the evil King Kordax and awaken the lost kingdom of Necrus and its army. Though the ritual threatened Atlantis and all Arthur loved, Aquaman defeated Black Manta, saving his son and ending the threat.
For a brief time, the royal family could hope for peace.
It would not last.
When Junior was two, a devastating war erupted across Atlantis, claiming countless lives and plunging the kingdom into conflict. Fearing they could not keep their son safe, Arthur and Seraphina made the heartbreaking decision to send him to the surface. They entrusted Junior to their closest friends, Billy Black and his wife, Sarah, who took him to the Quileute Reservation in La Push, Washington.
There, Junior begins a new life alongside his older adopted brother, Garth, growing up far from Atlantis and the legacy beneath the sea. For years, the truth of his heritage remains hidden as he becomes part of a family and a people who know nothing of the prince he was born to be.
But the past cannot remain buried forever.
As Junior grows older, secrets surrounding his birth, his family, Atlantis, and the war that separated him from his parents begin to surface. His life among the Quileute will bring friendships, rivalries, love, loss, and a connection to a world far greater than he ever imagined.
This is the story of Arthur Joseph Curry Jr.-the lost prince of Atlantis and the boy who would become a Quileute.
