Owner's Description
Issue #11 features "The Doom from Dimension Aqua", which starts out on a watery world known as Dimension Aqua, where a criminal named Leron seizes control of the kingdom, deposing the reigning queen, Mera. Mera is exiled and flees to the Earth dimension where she enlists the aid of Aquaman and Aqualad.
Leron pursues Mera to Atlantis and engages in battle with Aquaman, Aqualad, Mera and the water sprite, Quisp. He captures them all and brings them to Mera's homeland. But Aquaman discovers that traces of lead commonly found in oil, can remove the hard-water super-powers of people from Mera's home dimension. He makes use of this knowledge and succeeds in defeating Leron. Returning to Earth, Aquaman invites Mera to stay with him in Atlantis.
Issue #11 is a mini-key, in that it features the first appearance of Mera, who was a prominent figure in the Aquaman movies and played by the now infamous Amber Heard. Because of the black cover, it is a particularly tough issue to find in high grade and tends to be the most expensive of any Aquaman issue, excluding #1. The top copy in the census, a 9.4 Pacific Coast pedigree (now 1/2), recently came on the market and sold for about $30,000. While this copy was much cheaper, it is currently one of the four highest graded copies by CGC (now 6). We acquired the book in the September 19, 2019 CC auction.
