Atlas Comics returns
RKB:
I got them all with the exception of the mags and Vicki. I posted a series on my blog about them and wanted to see how the stories turned out/ how the third issue switch affected the titles I hadn't completed so I filled in the issues I was missing.. Planet of Vampires might have started of to ape Omega Man/I am Legend but by the time the third issue switch rolled around you have a planet with vampire spiders/vampire people/ and who knows what other kind of vampire creatures they had planed. I think it went pretty far from the source by the time it ended with issue 3. My personal favorites are Targitt (before the switch/new direction really hit with issue 3), Brute (Michael Fleisher written issues) Steve Ditko's work on Destructor, and Morlock 2001. Grim Ghost was a good title plenty of potential and Phoenix was one of the few Atlas titles that the third issue switch/new direction actually made even more interesting. Atlas/Seaboard stood out to me because it pushed the limit of what you could do in comics father than either Marvel or DC did back then, I don't know if the new relaunch will carry on in the same vein but I'm looking forward to giving it a shot.

The mags have always been harder to come by. I have been able to find the comics anytime I needed them except Vicki, but have not seen the mags often especially the romance.

I guess you just had to be there when they hit the stands, Narf.
Since this was posted awhile ago and on GAC, perhaps I can share this my one and only Martin Goodman story again:

Just read that Ardden Entertainment's Editor-In-Chief J.M. DeMatteis is leaving the company due to "creative differences" over the Atlas revival. I also saw that "Wulf The Barbarian" is part of the revival (in addition to Grim Ghost & Phoenix).
