Media Release -- Atlas Comics is excited to announce ATLAS UNIFIED, a history-making comic book mini-series that launches with a #0 issue during this October's New York Comic-Con and then continues with the first issue in November. ATLAS UNIFIED takes Phoenix, Grim Ghost, Wulf and several surprise stars on a deadly free-fall through eternity. A catastrophic visitation from the distant future (and Atlas Comics' past) brings the dramatic revelation that time travel is possible--but only for those prepared to die. The world's toughest heroes track a desperate villain through eras ranging from humanity's savage dawn to its tragic end--but find only an irreversible threat to history, to time, and to existence itself.

Suspended Animation Review
The Scorpion, published by Seaboard Periodicals, 32 pages, original cover price of 25 cents, current prices vary.
In 1974, a new comic book publisher set up shop, determined not only to make a splash in the industry, but, according to some in the business, to take a bite out of Marvel Comics. And, though Atlas Comics folded in short order, their initial offerings included what some consider highly entertaining comic work, rife with potential. One such creation was The Scorpion, by none other than well-known writer/artist Howard Chaykin.
