Aquaman does not appear in this story except for the prophecy vision of the future where he dies.
The Deluge is a prophecy of a cataclysmic flood that will destroy both the Surface World and Atlantis. The Atlantean rebel group named "The Deluge" named themselves after this prophecy believing that only the surface world will be destroyed by the flood. The prophecy is said to be triggered by a "Fatal Queen" of Xebel blood after the death of the king. The Widowhood believes that Mera is destined to be this Fatal Queen.

- Synopsis
- N.E.M.O. forces, posing as Atlanteans, have attacked several American cities along the East Coast, with casualties in the thousands. In retaliation, President Obama declares war against Atlantis, and US forces begin to attack Atlantean targets. As Aquaman continues to try to find evidence to show that N.E.M.O. are the true perpetrators, the US plans to send the Aqua-Marines special task force on a covert mission to sneak into Atlantis to assassinate Aquaman. Things come to a head in Atlantis when the Justice League arrives to confront Arthur about the attacks on US cities.
- Reprints
The Aquamarines are a US special ops task force of genetically enhanced agents who have hardened skin, enhanced skeletons, enhanced musculature, and can breathe underwater. They were specifically modified in anticipation of using against Atlantis in the event that such action was deemed necessary.
The Agent Copeland depicted here is the dark-haired Copeland that appeared in issue #4, not the blond agent also identified as Copeland in that same issue, or the African American who was identified as Copeland in issue #3.

- Synopsis
- Aquaman convinces the Justice League that Atlantis is being framed by N.E.M.O. for the attacks on the US, and asks the League to go to the White House to ask the US for a cease-fire against Atlantis. Commander Stubbs, commanding a N.E.M.O. ship disguised as a US ship, leads an attack on Atlantis. Aquaman fights the N.E.M.O. ship but fails to capture any crew members alive to confess to N.E.M.O.'s involvement. Without proof of a third party behind the attacks, the US rejects the cease-fire option and orders the Aqua-Marines to Atlantis on a mission to assassinate Aquaman.

- Synopsis
- The Aquamarines infiltrate Atlantis on their mission to assassinate Aquaman. Arthur, with the help of Mera and Jurok Byss, is able to capture them, but High Lord Zeekil Neol and Elder Koah are killed in the attack and Seneschal Kae is critically injured. Sentiment among the Atlanteans is to retaliate against the US. Aquaman addresses his subjects and says he will make one last attempt to avoid war, but if he fails he will accept that war is inevitable and will step down as king of Atlantis. Aquaman then tracks a N.E.M.O. signal to their base and discovers that they are led by Black Manta.
