Looking good! Can't wait for the first issue.

Hopefully all the great word of mouth the mini-series had, as well as the strength of Jeff's name and previous work will make the book a smash hit. Thankfully the tie-in with Dark Reign should help. As well as future appearances by the Avengers and X-Men. Can't wait to see the Agents butt heads with old Osborn.

Also, who would have thought a relative nobody such as "Man Mountain Marko" would appear in two places in less than a month. Given his appearance in X-Men: Manifest Destiny #5 as well as here.

Who's that guy with the super-strong abilities that seems to be working for S.H.I.E.L.D. in those picks?

Wow, that is awesome artwork! More could have been said about Carlos, but the pictures speak for themselves!

Man Mountain Marko. He's used to be Silvermane's old right hand man.

There's a lettered version of the preview in the back of several books right now.

I think his face is just red from rage.

I just want to say (again) that I cannot believe how utterly beautiful Carlo Pagulayan's art is on this.......

Yeah. I was worried when they said Leonard Kirk was busy with the current Excalibur book.

But I think Carlo's art is great.Though I certainly wouldn't mind LK doing an Annual or something.

it really is good , i especially like how he draws Namora totally ripped, but still feminine, that's a hard balance for a lot of comic book artists. and his M11 in that spread rocks!

While I shall miss the dream team of Parker/Kirk, I am looking forward to this! Agents of Atlas rule! Finally a team I care about (that's not in space) that has an ongoing.

Ditto!

the art looks a-mazing and in Parker I trust.

If you guys want to read the best X-Men title in years, go pick up back issues of X-Men: First Class. There are LOL moments in every issue...and no continuity to mess up!

Been following it from day 1. Jeff's the best writer working at Marvel today.

I always get a kick when Man Mountain Marko shows up. He seems like such an obscure character, and yet he still has managed to pop up every few years or so for the past four decades.
