About 80% of this comic is Agents of Atlas vs. the X-Men, a battle that seems even more gratuitous than most superhero fights given that Namora is a friend of a friend of the X-Men. The Agents break into an X-Men facility in order to get their hands on Cerebra, which they want to modify to help them find the abducted Venus. One wonders why Namora couldn’t simply have given Cyclops a call and asked to borrow it. There is a backup story about the original X-Men fighting the Agents which may help to explain the hostilities next issue. The most interesting part of this comic is the two pages devoted to Venus’ kidnapping. Aphrodite has ordered the abduction because she is peeved that Venus is using her appearance and Roman name. This raises the question of what Venus really looks like. A hint is dropped that the Atlas Foundation and the Olympus Group have had dealings in the past, a complication which could lead to some interesting stories.
The art in the main story is just ok. Anatomy, backgrounds and facial expressions are serviceable. The art in the backup story lacks detail and the Beast looks like his jaw is still swollen from a punch in the face during a previous fight.
Art: 3 - Good
