Atlanta is the capital and largest city of the state of Georgia.
History[]
WHiH World News[]
An executive at WHiH World News, a TV channel with a division in Atlanta, sent one of his news crews to cover insurgent attacks in the area Al-Kut in Iraq, knowing that Iron Man would appear as soon as he had knowledge of the situation via the broadcasting of the attacks.
Later on, Stark asked the executives at WHiH's home office in Atlanta for permission to download the footage of his intervention defeating the insurgent to be used by Stark Industries' public relations department.[2]
Chase of Grant Ward[]
Grant Ward arrived from Philadelphia to Atlanta in a bus, having escaped from both federal custody and S.H.I.E.L.D.'s attempts to recapture him. Noticing Bobbi Morse reading a book pretending to read a book, Ward approached Eliza and her son Graham, who were struggling to carry their bags. Giving a fake name, Ward befriended the mother and child, offering to help them and boarding the same bus, headed for Dallas.
However, inside the bus, Eliza asked Ward to join them during the travel, but Ward noticed the same woman with the book and told them that he would rather sit in the back. Ward went down the aisle and asked Bobbi Morse if he could sit with her.
Ward seemingly flirted with Morse about riding a bus instead of flying and reading a book instead of enjoying the sights, which Morse said was her excuse to travel in a bus. Ultimately, Ward revealed that, though he was impressed, he knew she was a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent because he noticed she was exactly on the same page of her book than when she was waiting outside. Ward showed Morse the explosive vest he was wearing and told her to keep reading trying or saying anything, or he would detonate the explosives. Ward then asked the driver to open the door, as he seemingly took a wrong bus, leaving Morse behind and unable to follow him.
Ward boarded a bus headed for Boston while Morse called Melinda May to inform her that her cover was blown, praising Ward's skills. Morse then contacted Lance Hunter, who was disguised as a southern man in the same bus headed for Boston, to inform him that now he would have to follow Ward.[3]
Framework Network[]
With the knowledge of the Darkhold, Holden Radcliffe and Aida began perfecting the Framework. Upon completion, the code had become so powerful that it had to be processed on devices from all around the world. Part of the data was transmitted on a group of cellphones in Atlanta.[4]
Snap[]
In 2018, Nick Fury and Maria Hill drove through Atlanta and discussed recent events. Before Fury could order Hill to notify Cameron Klein where they would meet, a car spiraled out of control in front of them and blocked them. After getting out to investigate, Hill noticed that the driver's seat was empty. They then witnessed a helicopter crash into a building. As Fury told Hill to call code red, she disintegrated. Fury ran back to his car and activated his Transmitter Pager, before disintegrating into dust as well, along with half of Atlanta's population.[5] Shortly afterwards, the surviving Avengers arrived in Atlanta, after tracking Fury's location, and recovered the pager.[6]
Alternate Universe[]

In an alternate timeline, Atlanta was bombed causing a Nexus event to form. This forced the Time Variance Authority to reset the timeline.[7]
