    A young woman loses her dad under mysterious circumstances, learns he was looking for Atlantis under the island of Manhattan. She recruits her brother, his girlfriend and two others to steal dad's research from the big bad company and, while evading corporate goons, finishes the research. It's a good opening arc with a wide berth in case Aftershock wants to do more.

    It's a fun adventure/thriller type of story with a healthy dose of sci-fi wrapped in. Probably my least favorite of Zack Kaplan's books for concept, but execution is a lot better than his better concept "Eclipse" for Image.

    Art is right up there, clearly had fun with the Atlantis scenes. And the book production is flawless, using the best paper stock and giving 5 issues plus extras for $15. Not too shabby.
