24 Hour Comics Reviewing Day, Hour Twenty: Agents of Atlas #3

Agents of Atlas #3AGENTS OF ATLAS #3: This comic is fun. Like Eternals, this is another mid-miniseries issue that slows down the action for a massive infodump, but there's enough forward movement and travelin' around for the Agents to make it forgiveable. (It'll definitely read better in the trade, however). This is one of the more dense Marvel reads in the past month, so I feel I'm definitely getting my money's worth: this ain't a comic you can read once in ten minutes; take your time and savor every talkin' monkey, conveniently-tressed Venus panel. Any comic that covers Africa, Uranus (tee hee), San Francisco and Atlantis in one issue and manages to get in an extending esophagus sight gag is tops in this little bull's book. And whee! Namora's still alive? Hooray! (turns to the last page) Uh...nevermind.
