Tracking up? Agents of Atlas? Wha?

But there it is in black and white.

AGENTS OF ATLAS ticks *up* for issue #3, not *down*, as is customary.  Perhaps it’s the incentive covers.  Perhaps it’s cosmic rays.  Perhaps it’s…word of mouth.

Me?  I’ll go with word of mouth, and maybe people wanting to read a book that’s not glum and so down in the mouth for a change.  That could be it, right?  Something that’s, y’know, escapist fantasy, with enough meat on the character’s bones to make the compelling, not repellent.  And what’s this about another secret organization going after Atlas?  Conspiracy fight go!

In all seriousness, the Atlas team deserves the uptick in numbers.  And yes, it’s the only regular Marvel comic I buy as a monthly, but it looks like I missed out on something good with those Jason Aaron/Tony Moore GHOST RIDER issues.  Maybe I should go back and pick those up.
