This was my first time reading this series. I've read raves about this one in multiple places, but honestly I see why it was cancelled. It's not bad, but other than having an odd assortment of d-list characters for the team there's nothing really different here. It's an action/adventure/superhero thing through and through. I felt like I was reading the Defenders with a less interesting team. Perhaps the earlier volumes are better, but I doubt I'll bother.
I like the setup and characters quite a lot, but wasn't feeling the way the plot went down. I can see why it has a devoted fan base, but I can also see why it had a hard time lasting. It doesn't quite have that pulpy punch it should have, but the dialog and general cleverness make it an entertaining read.
Well, once again a series that I enjoy reading and collecting is cancelled. Is it me? Or is it because I belong to a minority of comic book readers who read stuff that don't include Wolverine and thus we get shafted every frickin' time?
Seems a bit short and less self-contained than most of the the Agents of Atlas stories, but I still enjoyed it and a very glad to see the story continuing.
Can't wait to see what's next.

Aw, man, this volume's REALLY great. The Namor two-parter is simultaneously thrilling and hilarious, and the concluding arc is just GREAT. I love this series.
An absolutely outstanding book. A lot of action and enough situational humor to keep it fun and away from the boring standard that is non-mainstream comics.
This is a nice quirky little adventure series. D-list Marvel heroes take over an evil "empire" and plan to make it a force for good while keeping everyone else thinking that they are evil. Toss in sirens, cameos by Greek gods, a poke in the eye to the old yellow peril trope, and talking gorillas (can;t forget the talking gorillas) and dragon for a fun ride.
