Arion Lord of Atlantis 1982 - Newsstand #15

Arion #15: "The Weaver of Dreams"

This issue is famous for introducing (or rather, deeply fleshing out) one of the most unique antagonists in DC’s magical history: The Weaver.

The Plot Highlights:

• The Introduction of the Weaver: Unlike Garn Daanuth, who wants to rule Atlantis, the Weaver is an ancient, multi-dimensional entity that views reality as a tapestry to be unraveled and re-sewn. This shifts the series from "Sword and Sorcery" into "Cosmic Fantasy."
• Arion’s Mental Toll: Following the "Deadly Dreams" of issue #14, Arion realizes that his mind has been "thinned" by his constant use of high-level magic, making him a perfect target for the Weaver’s influence.
• The Return of Wyynde: While the previous two issues focused heavily on Arion and Chian, Wyynde gets some great character moments here, proving his loyalty even as the world starts to literally "unravel" around them.
