The stage is set for Aquaman vs. Black Manta: Round 3.
Upon awakening on Shin’s ship, he agreed to show the scientist where the underwater kingdom was in exchange for his help in seeking revenge on Arthur.
In case you need a refresher, Black Manta (real name David Hyde) was thrown off a cliff during his second confrontation with Arthur Curry in Aquaman, but rather than dying, he was rescued by Randall Park’s Dr. Stephen Shin, a marine biologist who’s desperate to find Atlantis.
