I'd post photos if I could figure out how.

Is this for the team comic from a few years back or for 50's era Marvel publications?
I really loved when this team was introduced. The first series was great, and the follow-up with 3-D Man was pretty enjoyable as well. I never did read the Hercules-connected story though.
Personally, I think they'd make for perfect supporting characters/friendly antagonists for Iron Fist.

You were Spider-Man then. You and Peter had agreed on it. But he came back right when you started feeling comfortable.
You know what it means when he comes back.
"You're not the better one, Peter. You're just older."

I have been saying for years the AOA could be the next Guardians on the big screen if they do it right. It has something to appeal to everyone.
I was thinking more the team comic, but the members' appearances from the 50's would be fair game.
So damn good. I miss them terribly. I just miss Jeff Parker at Marvel, really.
I really need to track down the Namora one-shot. Pretty sure it's the only thing my AoA collection is missing.
That and the What If.
at least Jimmy Woo is in the movies. Wouldn't take much to push him into the Atlas role.
I hope that they can incorporate the team into some future show or movie. Namora is likely problematic due to Sub Mariner's legal status, but all others should be free and clear.
I believe the last time the characters were featured it was in a One-shot for Secret Wars. Personally I liked AOA but it's not really all that surprising they're not showing up too much because A. They received a pretty big push back in the Dark Reign & Heroic Age eras and the results weren't that great & B. Jeff Parker isn't working at Marvel & he seemed to be the one who really loved and went to bat for the characters.
