Wonder Man's attempt to bodyguard Rick Jones is not particularly successful. Atlas soon deduces that he and Rick trade places every time he hits the Nega Bands together, and he does so quite rapidly to attack Wonder Man in ``hit and run'' fashion. Wonder Man soon works out his timing, and clocks him just as he returns on one of his swaps. With Atlas in custody, it is agreed to leave Rick with the Pantheon and bring both coasts of Avengers together.
