Agents Of Atlas #1 cover

So, I got this cool new idea for a way I want to review comics, specifically new comics, that I have never read: TPKC.

Theory – My idea of the comic going in and/or why I decided to read the comic
Punch – The part of the comic that “irked” me or I didn’t like.
Kick – The parts of the comic I did like
Conclusion – My overall sum up of the comic along with a rating as to if I think you should read it.

For each part of the nice little abbreviation I’ll go into an explination for the comic. And let’s begin.

Theory: I’ve seen a preview for Agents of Atlas #1 probably 30 times in the back of my Marvel comics for the last month or so and was like, “What the hell? Why is Marvel pushing this so hard down my throat?” Going in I had no idea what this comic was about and really, I was kind of sucked in by the talking Gorilla and Namora, but, nevertheless, as a Dark Reign tie-in, I figured it was worth checking out and trying for at least one issue. So I decided to check it out. I figured it was going to be something lame ala War Machine or something, but I still tried–I mean when Marvel pushes something on me, 70% of the time I assume it’s going to bad (unless it’s X-Men related).

Catch the rest after the break. (minor spoilers)
