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.

Media Release -- "Atlas At Last" is a visual tour of the short-lived (or so it seemed) Atlas-Seaboard line of comics, which was originally published in 1974-1975 by Martin Goodman, the man who founded Marvel Comics. Although it only managed a combined output of 72 color comic books and black & white magazines, saw its longest-lived title reach only four issues, and included at least a few thinly disguised versions of established characters, the Atlas line stuck in the minds of collectors, dealers and pop culture historians.
Media Release -- Atlas Comics and Ardden Entertainment are proud to announce that THE GRIM GHOST #1 hits (most) comic book stores tomorrow! Scripted by screenwriter Stephen Susco (THE GRUDGE) and comic industry legend Tony Isabella, THE GRIM GHOST #1 is a supernatural tour-de-force that takes place between the worlds of the living and the dead.

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.
