The Aquaman from Atlantis
An Atlantean criminal named Pomoxis lures Aquaman into a trap. He uses a device which sends the sea king backwards in time some 2,500 years. Aquaman encounters the armies of Greece, who mistake him for the sea god, Poseidon). Meanwhile in the present, Pomoxis attempts to conquer Atlantis by dressing up as Aquaman. Aqualad realizes Pomoxis is not his mentor, and fights against him until such time that Aquaman can return to the present. Commanding an army of fish, the two heroes manage to defeat Pomoxis' battalion and restore order to Atlantis.
