Back in the States, Mera confronts Shin about his history with Aquaman. Shin says he was rescued by Tom Curry, Aquaman's father, after an expedition went wrong. Years later Curry brought Arthur to Shin to get help understanding Arthur's developing powers. Curry told Shin how Arthur came to be and Shin argued that he should go public with the knowledge that Atlantis exists. Curry cut Shin off, and Shin went public anyway but couldn't prove anything.

Desperate to salvage his credibility, Shin hired Black Manta to get a sample of Arthur's blood. In the fight, Tom Curry suffered a heart attack and died three days later. In revenge, Shin said that Arthur killed Manta's father.
