    CAPTAIN ATOM: HERO OF MONSTER?

    Charged by nuclear energy and possessing vast molecular powers, USAF pilot Nathaniel Adam, better known as Captain Atom, has the potential to be a literal god among men --- a hero without limits. But the question is: Can he keep his powers under control?

    He frequently returns to the scientific facility known as the Continuum so that Dr. Megala and the staff can help him further understand his abilities and stabilize his body when his grasp on his powers seems to be slipping. Despite his misgivings, the government is intent on recruiting Captain Atom as a a weapon of mass destruction.

    Ultimately, his powers are tested when a great danger lurks in the shadows, a threat unlike any other --- yet strangely similar to Captain Atom. What is the secret connection between the hero and this unholy beast...?

    Don't miss the start of a legend from writer J.T. KRUL (GREEN ARROW, TEEN TITANS) and artist FREDDIE WILLIAMS II (JSA ALL-STARS) in CAPTAIN ATOM: EVOLUTION, collecting issues #1-6.

    Tonight on Mystery Science Theater 3000.... Now, I'm no DCU expert, but this strikes me as just plain goofy. Not the good kind of goofy like Adam West's Batman or the New 52 Green Lantern New Guardians, unfortunately, just the head scratching, mind perplexing goofiness of things that are allowed to come into existence despite several people (many of whom likely have some formal education) standing in between the Mysterious Creative Processes and Published Work Land. In one sense, we should find ...
