Continuing with this theme, what five pairs of brothers have, at various times in history (or pre-history), been shown to be in conflict over the fate or throne of Atlantis?

That's two...the other sets are all from the Atlantis Chronicles mini-series, which fills in some Atlantean history between those two points.

I'm not much help with this one. For what it's worth to other guessers, I recall an Orin being mentioned.

Are you counting the Marvel version of Atlantis?

Good shout Emily, but Chaim said that "the other sets are all from the Atlantis Chronicles mini-series"
"...not having to believe in a thing to be interested in it and not having to explain a thing to appreciate the wonder of it."

The first three are correct, the last one is not. Orin is one of the other two pairs, but Atlan was not a sibling, he was a distant descendant (and not a member of the other pair, either. The other pair were Atlan's two brothers, Atlan was sort of a neutral party in that generation's fight).

I seem to be making a habit of stumping people. The other two pairs are:
Orin and Shalako (Atlantis Chronicles # 1-2) Kraken and Haumond (Atlantis Chronicles # 5-7)
Myg can take the next turn, as last responder.

Fickles said in another thread that the Atlantis Chronicles was worth picking up.

It definitely is. Very Peter David - subtle humor, lots of personality-based drama. And if you've read his Aquaman without having read this first, you're missing quite a bit.

Hmmm... Daniel Moonstar has to force Jack, Cyndi and Jemail to work together in order to get free. Why?

They have been merged together into a single monstrous gestalt being?

They were not merged into a single monstrous gestalt being (though this is somewhat true) and they were not trapped in the astral plane

Soooooo close> Technically you are correct in the broad sense. But I'm looking for specifics

There's the old standard of them all being trapped 8n devices that only negate they're own powers, but not the power of others.
