I'm still hoping that The Atom gets a little bit closer to his comic counterpart in the upcoming season of
DC's Legends of Tomorrow. I like Brandon Routh's performance as Ray Palmer, but I want to see a lot more shrinking and the costume definitely needs and upgrade, Lets see a sleeker suit that is inspired more by Gil Kane's designs than Tony Stark's.
These two shared a Pirate adventure in
STF #1454...
In four days... The STF 2000th issue 100-Page Giant!
I dunno -- I just took a look of some of the pictures of a younger, fitter Routh in the Superman suit without the cape, which is just the traditional Atom suit with a different color mix. I'm not sure I'd want to look at that every week.
ReplyDeleteAnyone taking a day off work for the 2000th edition? Or midnight parties Harry Pottee-style? I'll be saving it for the weekend, but that's mainly because I'll be without internet access for a few days.
ReplyDeleteBefore CC corrects me, Pottee was a typo. It should have said Potter
ReplyDeleteRats! Anon spoiled my favorite Eddie Murphy joke.

Sorry, Ross. I just HAD to get that out of my system.
ReplyDeleteWith regard to the source of today's cover; was it the Silver Age issue where Zatanna and Ray went up against the Druid of the Magic Atom?
It oolks more like a relative of Keith Ulu's clan.
