Aquaman (1986) is a 4-issue Aquaman miniseries by DC Comics. It's the last major Pre-Crisis storyline for the character, and is notable for introducing Aquaman's blue camouflage costume as well as adding magic to the lore of Atlantis. It was written by Neal Pozner and illustrated by Craig Hamilton, Steve Montano, Joe Orlando, and Bob Lappan.When Aquaman's brother, Orm the Ocean Master, attacks and destroys his home of New Venice, he and Mera are shocked to discover Orm is much more powerful than he ever was before. In Atlantis, Vulko discovers the royal seal of Atlantis has been stolen and the likely culprits are from the isolationist, magical city of Thierna Na Oge.Aquaman is dispatched to retrieve the seal, but finds Thierna Na Oge is in the middle of a war not unlike his own. The tyrant king, Bres, has overthrown her sister Nuada and suspects him of having stolen their own artifact, the Lia Fail. As Aquaman struggles to keep up in a world suddenly filled with magic, he learns that overcoming his anger and superiority complex may be the key to saving both kingdoms and stopping Orm. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Aquaman (1986) (Comic Book) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Bres's magic is noted in-story as being stylish and flashy over substance, and she's only an effective tyrant because the other, more skilled mages of the conclave obey her and combine their energy with hers. | |

Adaptational Jerkass | |
| Aquaman (1986) (Comic Book) / int_a91078ea | comment |
Adaptational Jerkass: Aquaman's father Tom Curry is depicted here, and nowhere else, as a militant man who favored Arthur and left Orm in the shadows, seething with revenge. Aquaman himself is rather haughty and cruel in this series, building off of his Justice League Detroit characterization. A noted goal of the writers for this series was moving him past this mindset as he was felt to be too unlikable. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Aquaman and Nuada flee Thierna Na Oge as soon as possible, leaving it in Bres' hands since stopping Orm is more important. It isn't until Aquaman (1994) that Bres is overthrown. | |
