History
Along with Justice Guild teammates Batwoman, Superwoman and Wonderous Man, Aquawoman was brought to the House of Heroes to aid in the battle against The Gentry.[2] During the The Multiversity, Aquawoman joined the Justice Incarnate.
According to herself, the sea queen is the strongest native life-form on her world.[3] She's also the mentor to Aquagirl.[4]
When the Supermen of the multiverse were being hunted by the Prophecy, the Justice League Incarnate met with Kal-El (New Earth) and Kal-L (Earth-30). Aquawoman and The League warned the Supermen of the incoming danger and aided them to find Kong Kenan, the Super-Man of China.[5] The group returned to the House of Heroes, where Superman took the Ultima Thule to the Prophecy to enact his plan as bait, as well as creating a beacon where the other captured Supermen were taken.[6] The House later received a signal from the Thule, and Red Racer mentions to the group that was their only vessel and building another one would take thousands of years; so he sacrificed himself to build a new one, shocking everyone, but luckily his plan worked and they managed to save the Supermen.[7]
