Pomoxis embarks upon another daring plan to seize control of Atlantis. He works with the surface pirate Captain Clay and provides him with a special variety of seafood.

While the heroes attempt to calm down the destructive sea creatures, Pomoxis makes his move and takes command of Atlantis. When Aquaman returns, Pomoxis arrests both him and Aqualad and throws them into a dungeon. Aquaman uses his telepathy to summon the sea beasts to aid him.

When an Atlantean is menaced by a great two-headed beast, Aquaman rescues the man, and meets a newcomer—Kaltor, an Atlantean who trained him in the use of his powers when he was a teenager. Now Kaltor claims that his fighting strength has waned, and makes Aquaman swear a sacred oath to destroy the two-headed monster. But Kaltor's daughter Starene arrives, and is sorrowful that her father has made Aquaman swear the oath. Later, the monster kidnaps Mera, but Aquaman refuses to let Aqualad destroy it, opting to capture it instead. As the Sea King had deduced, the two-headed beast soon metamorphoses into Kaltor. The Atlantean tells Aquaman that since being exposed to strange fumes in an underwater mine, he has been transformed periodically into the monster, and fears the next change will be permanent. Kaltor becomes the beast again, and after Aquaman finds Mera, the Sea King steels himself and slays the creature. But the monster transforms back into a living Kaltor, who is reunited with his daughter Starene. Aquaman says that the "death" of the monster was evidently the antidote to Kaltor's curse.

Aquaman learns from an Atlantean doctor that Mera, who is about to deliver his child, will be doomed by a hereditary disease that runs in Aquaman's family (as will the baby) if she does not receive an antidote made from an anemone root in the Gulf of Terrors, far from Atlantis. The Sea King and Aqualad complete a perilous odyssey to the gulf and get the antidote from an exiled criminal of Atlantis, Sinquo. Mera receives the antidote in time and safely bears their son, Arthur Curry Jr., alias "Aquababy." However, Aquababy has been given strange powers by the serum, which threaten Atlantis. Aquaman opines that Sinquo added something to the serum that gave his son the out-of-control powers. The Atlanteans demand that Aquababy be taken away from the city, and Aquaman, Mera, Aqualad and Aquababy go into exile. But when the mutant Horrkas attack the family, Aquababy blasts them away, exhausting his powers in the process. Thus, Aquaman and his family are able to return to Atlantis.
