It may feature a cast of mostly unknown characters, but "Agents of Atlas" continues to generate positive buzz. With issue #3 of the series hitting stores tomorrow, we checked in with writer Jeff Parker.

Okay, in "panel 3" (the bit with the VidWindow) on page 16 - http://images.comicbookresources.com/previews/marvelcomics/agentsofatlas/issue03/AOATLAS003016.jpg - does Marvel Boy look a lot more like Marvel "Girl" to anyone else? Not just the hair that's longer only in that panel, but the body type, face & posture too.

Looks obviously like a chick to me.

One of the best book in years. I never thought I would enjoy it as much as I have, given the fact that I'm mostly an X-Men fan. But the book is really refreshing, intelligent, and downright fun to read. Hopefully there are more minis and maybe even an ongoing in the future. Hopefully since both the writer and artist love Gorilla Man, he's not the one taking the dirt nap in Issue #4. I will not be a happy camper if so. :(

That's because it IS a chick. There is, of course, a perfectly logical explanation, but I'll leave that for you to find out.

Yes. I had a total geek moment at seeing it in the comic as well. :D

Agents of Atlas #3 was the best book of the week.

Of course I only got two books this week, but still... it was.

I have the book, but I missed it on the first read-through. I just now caught it on the scan.
