Failing to defeat Aquaman the first time, Black Manta, still driven by the need to avenge his father's death, will stop at nothing to destroy Aquaman once and for all. This time Black Manta, possessing the power of the mythical Black Trident, which unleashes an ancient and malevolent force, is more fearsome than ever.
To defeat him, Aquaman will turn to his imprisoned brother Orm, the former king of Atlantis, to forge an unlikely alliance. Together they must put aside their differences to protect their kingdom and save Aquaman's family, and the world, from irreversible destruction.
