Captain Atom and Solar: Man of the Atom
These two atomic heroes have been around for decades and have each been published by multiple comic companies, so I thought it was about time they shared an adventure together. I have liked Captain Atom since his introduction to the DCU in Crisis on Infinite Earths, but I didn't have a chance to try out his New 52 series. I'm not crazy about his recent redesign as I think it makes him look too similar to The Silver Surfer. I haven't read as much of Solar, but I have always liked the cool artwork associated with the character, from the classic Gold Key covers to Barry Windsor-Smith's beautiful work during his first Valiant run.
Very good work !
