You have hundreds of champions to defend a few land masses. I protect the other seventy percent of the world...and there is only one of me. I have responsibilities you cannot even dream of.

— King Arthur of Atlantis

Arthur Curry once served as the superhero known as Aquaman, but in later years surrendered his title to his former protege, Garth, to become the ruler of Atlantis.

History

By the time the Justice League made their appearance in arresting rogue metahumans, Superman and Wonder Woman paid him a visit to request that an underwater colony be set up for rogue meta-humans that refused to reform and become part of the Justice League. Arthur turned down the request on the grounds that he would not allow the oceans he governed to be burdened with refuse from the surface.
