synopsis
Falling under the aromatic spell of a strange sea flower, Mera becomes the prisoner of an evil underwater war lord. To rescue Mera, Aquaman and Aqualad must journey to a strange new waterworld where no one has gone before. Captured by the war lord's minions, Aquaman is forced into mortal combat against a multi-headed Hydra. Thank goodness that Aqualad is free to lead an army of seahorses to the rescue. "War of the Water Worlds" later became the basis for a popular Aquaman video game.
