BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON


Written by J. Michael Straczynski Art by Christ Weston & Garry Leach. Unlike anything else that Marvel is currently publishing.
Twelve B-List heroes from the 'Atlas' (World War II) era of Marvel history are found alive kept in suspended animation in Germany since the end of the war. It's the classic 'fish out of water' as they cope with the modern world after their reawakening.
Highly recommended for anyone that enjoys clean art & storytelling.
Gorgeous, meticulous artwork.
No pin-ups to be found here!

I give it 8 out of 10 Grahams
