Fictional character biography

Atlan kidnaps Aqualad, taking him to his home dimension to teach him the secrets of his mystical heritage. There, three or four years pass though far less time passes in Aqualad's home dimension. He returns, much more powerful, and takes on the name of Tempest.

Atlan assists in the defeat of "Rhombus", a villain who desires to harm Deep Blue. Later, after asserting her genetic heritage, Atlan seemingly takes Deep Blue to another dimension.

Atlan is present, along with many other Atlantean defenders, when the Spectre destroys Atlantis during an attack by the Secret Society of Supervillains. His fate is unknown.
