Product Description

Step into the atmospheric mystery of Aquaman #49 (1969), a standout Silver Age issue titled "As the Seas Die." In this environmentally-charged script by Steve Skeates, Arthur Curry travels to the frigid Alaskan coast to assist oceanographer Dan Davidson in investigating a chemical toxin decimating the local ecosystem. The plot thickens with industrial sabotage and the ominous arrival of Ocean Master in Atlantis, perfectly captured by Jim Aparo’s moody, sophisticated interior art.

This specific copy is in Very Fine (VF) condition, presenting a beautiful balance of structural integrity and visual brilliance. The Nick Cardy cover remains a centerpiece of late-60s DC design, and the addition of the "Scuba Man" humor page by John Costanza adds a touch of period-accurate charm. For the serious investor, a VF copy of this issue represents a high-tier addition to any Silver Age run.
