Poseidon was first mentioned in "Civil War" #5 (December 2006).

Poseidon appeared in the episode of Justice League "The Terror Beyond"," featuring the Justice League.The ruler of an ancient Atlantis, King Poseidon battled the demons called the "Old Ones." Knowing that the only way to defeat them for good was to gather all of the mystical energy on Earth, Poseidon gathered all of this energy into a mystical object named the Trident. Using this new weapon, Poseidon forced the Old Ones away from Earth for good.

In exchange for this new power, Atlantis sunk below the seas as the mystical energy that once held it up now resided in the Trident.
