Welcome to the Atlantis Disambiguation project!
This page is to be used in the help of the disambiguation of Atlantis.
Over the next few weeks, the page Atlantis will become a disambiguation page. As it currently stands, the page includes (essentially) every instance of "Atlantis" in all of Marvel. This does not do service to the fact that there have been several locations that bore the name of Atlantis.
If you'd like to suggest changes, discuss, or find out more, please use the Talk page.
Many Atlantises[]
This is the proposed breakdown for the disambiguation:
- Atlantis (Pre-Cataclysmic Age) - Location template; Continent and empire in the Pre-Cataclysmic Age. This would also be the Atlantis that established Pangea and multiple colonies, some surviving the Great Cataclysm. Current Atlantis history up to and including Great Caclysm.
- Atlantis (Homo mermanus) - Organization; the "Empire of Atlantis" of the Atlanteans (Homo mermanus). Different from the physical locations of the city-state.
- Atlantis (Kamuu) - Location; first city ever established by Atlanteans (Homo mermanus) on ruins of original Atlantis. Founded by Kamuu (Atlantean) (Earth-616). AKA "City of Kamuu."
- Tha-Korr - Location; this was the Atlantis we saw in comics in the 40s. Most (but not all) appearances done. Used as homeland again starting at Namor, the Sub-Mariner #15 but this was dropped later on. Apparently. ARGH.
- Atlantis (Pacific) - Locaton; seen in Namor.
- Atlantis (Byrrah) - Location; founded by Byrrah following destruction of Tha-Korr; first seen in Fantastic Four Annual #1 but destroyed in Tales to Astonish #98. Mostly unseen because it's the Atlantis from 1958 until "10 years ago" on the sliding timescale.
- Atlantis (Modern) - Location; established by Namor in Sub-Mariner #7. The one we are most familiar with and the "go to" Atlantis for most modern stories.
- Maritanis - Location; an existing outpost of Atlantis that became "New Atlantis" for some after Atlantis Rising.
- Oceanus (Atlantis) - Location; first appeared in Agents of Atlas (Vol. 2) #6.
- New Atlantis (Atlantean Pillar) - Location; when the Atlanteans lived underneath Utopia. Page may be re-named.

"Other" Atlantises that are tied to the Pre-Cataclysmic Age Atlantis (Pre-Cataclysmic Age)
- New Atlantis (shrunken people and city) from Strange Worlds #2. Current name: New Atlantis (Miniature)
- Old Atlantis (underwater races survivors of the Fall of Atlantis, heirs of Old Atlantis). Current name: Peak (Antarctica) (to be split into Peak (Antarctica) (city), separate in comics and handbooks.
- For a known list survivors of Pre-Cataclysmic Atlantis, whether groups or individual, see Category:Survivors of Pre-Cataclysmic Atlantis
Other 616 Atlantises[]
"Other" Atlantises that are not directly tied to the one most commonly known are:
- Atlantis from "The Girl Behind the Glass!" in Astonishing #59. Current name: Atlantis (Domed City)
- Atlantis from Amazing Adventures #2 was retconned into Aquatica in Weird Wonder Tales #22 (May, 1977).
- Atlantis from Tuk's adventures (e.g. Captain America Comics #3). Set in "50,000 BC" (in the Pre-Cataclysmic Age but 30,000 years before Atlantis (Pre-Cataclysmic Age)). Current name: Atlantis (50,000 BC)
- Please note that sometimes an outpost of Atlantis (Homo mermanus) is mistakenly identified as "Atlantis" proper. For example, in Namor's return in Fantastic Four #4, he visited "Atlantis" but this was later revealed to be a colony/outpost near New York.
- If a colony or an outpost is unidentified, please add Colonies and Outposts of Atlantis as appearance/mention/etc. in the comics page.
- For a known list of colonies and outposts, see Category:Colonies and Outposts of Atlantis.
Other Reality Atlantises[]
Atlantis as depicted in alternate realities will require a bit more attention to determine which of the above locations might apply.
Earth-928[]
Beinge one of the more fully developed alternate realities, there are a few Atlantises:
- New Atlantis from Ravage 2099 #5; non-Atlanteans (Homo mermanus) aquatic people. Proposed name: New Atlantis (???)
- "New Atlantis Project" from Spider-Man 2099 #43. Current name: Nova Atlantea
- Atlantis from Earth-928. Appearances to be added to Atlantis (Modern) in Alternate Realities category.
Earth-1610[]
These should be listed in Atlantis (Modern).
