Ryan comes across a few more oddities about Ivy Town this issue. One, he doesn't even realize. There's an expedition team that been lost under the town. There were same caves that one of the Professor's decided to take a field trip through, and shortly after there was a cave-in. So after 3 days of no contact, the Atom got involved. Also because his buddy Panda was part of the group. Anyways, on the way down through the tunnels, he's hit in the back of the head and knocked out. When he awakes he's in a kind of Puritan town that, obviously, way underground. He and Panda are both in the stockades. Now, what Ryan doesn't realize is that the ones who knocked him out, and the one's holding him captive, I think, are 2 separate entities. But, Ryan didn't see the first bunch, so he doesn't know that. Now, I could be wrong, but, I think, that's the case. Anyways, long story short, it obviously has something to do with Ivy Town's weirdness. But there also seems to be a large amount of radioactivity present down there too. So now, it's a mystery for Ryan. After he saves the group he went down there to get, he goes back for a soil and air sample. Plus he has to reward the little girl that helped him. Also, the leader of the town, whom he had to beat to free the captives, disappeared in a cloud of smoke. So I don't really think that threats gone yet. Plus Ryan still has to deal with the Dept. of Metahuman Affairs having the town under marshall law. Oh yeah, and Wonder Woman offered him membership in to the JLA last issue. Lots of stuff going on in the mighty mite's mind. Keith Champagne writes it, and Jerry Ordway does the pencils. I haven't seen Jerry's pencils lately, but it was a nice change of pace this issue. Overall, I thought, it was a good book.
