Agents of Atlas #4

Between the resonant writing and clean artwork from Mhan, Leon, and Rosenberg, Agents of Atlas #4 continues to be a benchmark example of both Asian/Asian-American rep and a good use of an ensemble hero cast. I'm already looking forward to next month. Read Full Review

Overall Agents of Atlas continues to build on its delightful cast and engaging central premise, but it seems like it hasn't quite hit full gear. Read Full Review

Well, we have one issue left and really feel like this should have been a three-issue mini-series. No clue if Greg Pak just cashed in a favor from Marvel so he could write whatever he would like even if it is garbage. Because that is what this story really is. Not much as really happen and the only thing that would entice me to come back is what Shang-Chi finds out later on in the issue. But overall it is quite sad that we aren't getting much from fan favorite's Amadeus or even Silk. We're not even getting much for readers to be new fans of some of these characters. The artwork varies throughout this issue from eh okay to actually pretty. Read Full Review

I appreciated the greater sharing of the spotlight around the team and the intelligent evolution of the logical problems inherent in the Pan premise. Also, the art is REALLY working for me this time around.

Woah ok. So the start of this issue is a VERY unsubtle transition to the climax, as Amadeus says something’s up with Pan and this Mike Nguyen guy (Captain Obvious), lets check it out, and proceeds to send the members of Atlas on various missions. Raz and Isaac beyond awkwardly flirt, Amadeus sends Shang-Chi to find Woo (finally someone notices he’s missing), Aero, Wave, and Luna stake out for dragon’s, and Dan Bi goes to school. Agents of Atlas 4 was probably the worst issue yet, but it still does just enough to give Pak the chance to write a good and satisfying conclusion.

This is so frustrating because there's what could be a good story, buried under way too many characters, self-indulgent dialogue and plenty of tired tropes.
