FIRST LOOK: AGENTS OF ATLAS #1
Agents of Atlas #1 will arrive in stores on August 2 from Marvel Comics. The issue is written by Jeff Parker, with by Leonard Kirk and a cover by Tomm Coker.
Here's how Marvel describes the book:
"Secret Wars, Civil Wars, Infinity Wars...years before these events, Marvel Comics was Atlas Comics with a wide variety of heroes spanning several genres including science-fiction and espionage. Now, in times of a new crisis, some of those heroes have reunited for one final mission, in Agents of Atlas #1.
"Led by FBI Special Agent Jimmy Woo, the Agents of Atlas were an odd assemblage of heroes that rescued a kidnapped President Eisenhower almost 50 years ago, disbanding quickly thereafter. Now, threats from the past begin to rise again and the Agents of Atlas must band together once more in all of their Golden Age glory.
"Comprised of a spy, a spaceman, a goddess, a robot, and a gorilla, the eccentric members of the Agents of Atlas may be the only thing that can save a world at peril from forces that even S.H.I.E.L.D couldn't handle.
It's the Golden Age reborn as these classic characters from Marvel's past resurface to show today's heroes how superheroing is done in Agents of Atlas #1."
Agents of Atlas #1 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.
