  We discuss the A-model as a gauge fixing of the Poisson Sigma Model with
target a symplectic structure. We complete the discussion in [arXiv:0706.3164],
where a gauge fixing defined by a compatible complex structure was introduced,
by showing how to recover the A-model hierarchy of observables in terms of the
AKSZ observables. Moreover, we discuss the off-shell supersymmetry of the
A-model as a residual BV symmetry of the gauge-fixed PSM action.
