King Shark Reading Order
This reading order is designed to give an outline of major storylines featuring King Shark (Nanaue) throughout DC Comics. It does not encompass every one of his appearances, but is an outline of the major ones and the stories that affect them.
The continuity details relating to each specific storyline are explained in the “Review” of each storyline. Every “Review” link will provide a detailed continuity breakdown of that story and will explain any reference the story makes to other aspects of the DC Universe. All of this can be found under the “Continuity” section of each link.
New 52
At the beginning of the New 52, the DC Universe was reset. Past King Shark stories were retconned and King Shark was reintroduced as a member of the Suicide Squad. His adventures in this era were almost exclusively tied to the Suicide Squad and he only made cameo appearances outside the Squad’s missions.
