"Throne of Atlantis" is a 2012–2013 comic book storyline created and published by DC Comics. The story arc consists of six issues from DC's Justice League and Aquaman publications,[1] functioning in part as a larger buildup towards the "Trinity War" event.[2] The plot was written by Geoff Johns, with art by Ivan Reis and Paul Pelletier.
In the story, believing Atlantis to be under attack, King Orm declares war on the surface world. Aquaman's allegiances are torn between his brother and the Justice League, while the latter group finds itself overwhelmed as the East Coast of the United States is swallowed by the ocean and the Atlantean royal troops march against humankind.
The storyline was loosely adapted into a 2015 animated film, Justice League: Throne of Atlantis.
