Synopsis:
Aquaman locates the Maarzons and discovers that they worship Black Manta as their god. He concludes that Black Manta must have kidnapped Mera, and a fight begins. Black Manta really had nothing to do with Mera's disappearance, but he uses Aquaman's suspicion to force his advantage in the fight. Aquaman triumphs and forces his opponent to flee. Black Manta then admits that he lied about kidnapping Mera. Aquaman then must flee the area before he is attacked by the Maarzons.

Meanwhile, back in Atlantis Aquagirl becomes concerned that Narkran, the acting king, is becoming a tyrant. She turns to Aqualad for help, but the Atlantean doctors refuse to allow her to see him as his injuries have grown worse.
