One of the fun things they’ve been doing with Wolverine comics since deciding that he’s at least a hundred years old, is going back in time and looking at some of the things he was involved in “as a youngster.” For instance they’ve had him dealing with Captain America; they’ve had him dealing with Blade back in old timey England. (Blade is supposed to be about a hundred years old too, but he’s a vampire and that’s the way those things work right?).
But who the hell are the Agents of Atlas? Well they’ve characters from those old comics who’ve recently been activated again for fun and profit. Not unlike a lot of old time comic books the “team” is really a mismatch of characters. I mean when you think fantastic four, you say ok matching outfits and similar goals and histories. You think Avengers, you think about similar levels of powers similar goals and personality types. But the Agents are just “weird.” They’re a team created in the 70’s but supposed to be from the 1950’s with a Gorilla guy (called Gorilla-Man) who is a regular man but the body of a Gorilla. A robot, but OLD SCHOOL robot. The Submariner, Namor’s cousin Namora. The creature Venus and Jimmy Woo. Jimmy is really the only “agent” having been with government and all.
So this special issue has them run into Wolverine back in the day before he had is adamtanium installed, so he’s just a tough old field agent mixing it up in weird situations. But basically it’s just another case of Marvel using Wolverine to bolster an obscure comic into the limelight. And that’s cool too. And they did eventually tie the Agents of Atlas into the current Dark Avengers series.
