Year Four[]
After Superman was told by Ares to convince Zeus's brothers to join forces with him, Poseidon is later seen at Themyscira, summoning a giant wave of water. Wonder Woman demands her uncle as to why he is threatening the Amazons. Poseidon replies that quarrel is only for the Gods of Olympus. Eros and Hermes told him if he dares to challenge Zeus, in which Poseidon replies that the messenger of the gods shall not interfere, demanding them to abandon his brother's foolish pursuit. Hermes told him that he can't demand things despite being the ruler of the seas. Growing tired of them, Poseidon then orders Superman to use his heat vision to knock them out, he claims that he stands with the Kryptonian.
While both Wonder Woman and Superman argued about his stance with Poseidon, one of the Amazonians fired an arrow against Poseidon, causing the large wave to come upon the island, until Aquaman and Mera arrived and uses their hydrokinesis to control the waves. Poseidon demands Aquaman to return to his kingdom and his quarrel is with the gods who imposes their will on mortals. Aquaman replies that he is not letting his wrath cause a catalyst for environmental damage. Diana also calls out his hypocrisy that the needless force has led to jeopardize her people, causing Poseidon to swing his trident onto her, sending her underwater.
Aquaman then drags Poseidon, engaging in an underwater fight. The two fought with their tridents but Aquaman was stabbed with Poseidon's trident, causing Mera to interfere as well. Poseidon was impressed by her mastery over water but still thinks it's not enough before pummeling Mera with a concussive hit. Aquman then drags him underwater, stabbing him with a trident and feeding him to a shark, stating that he is nothing but fish food. Mera who is unable to control the water by herself causes her to lose control and lets the wave go, dragging Superman, Wonder Woman, Atlas, Apollo, Eros, and Hermes underwater, although the Insurgents and the Flash have saved the other people.
Zeus then appears, demanding Poseidon to withdraw, which he concedes. He then asks why did he sided with Superman if he is that easily manipulated by Ares. Poseidon replies that he does this to his own accord. Zeus angrily asks if he defies his choice, which he responded back with "no all-father", and left.
