The titular Crimson Monster is a creature from another dimension, capable of shooting dangerous bolts of acid at its enemies. Like most of the other horrific creatures in the "Aquaman" saga, this one decides to destroy Atlantis and everyone in it. Aquaman is eager and willing to do battle against the Crimson Monster, but this time he cannot count on backup from Aqualad, who has been knocked on conscious. Sufferin' sawfish! How is THIS adventure going to turn out? ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
