does Atlas come from and why did Atlas start a school? On
Mt Olympus, ATLAS had a job holding the Earth on his shoulders.
He was fascinated watching people on Earth flying around in
capes fighting evil-doers. One day he decided to quit his
job with the gods and become a SUPERHERO. When ATLAS came
to Earth, all the superhero jobs were taken. So with the help
of his dad, Zeus, he opened the ATLAS SCHOOL FOR SUPERHEROES.
Following the Supreme Code, Atlas thought he was going to
teach the kids how to be heroes, but he is learning more from
them.
