Now they're interesting, but the REAL star of the show is one of his villains, John Doe the Generic Man, who's this guy in a stark white suit with flat pink unshaded, untextured skin with no features or anything who talks like chatGPT and has black text over his face that explains what he's feeling at the moment. That guy is fucking fascinating.

Captain Atom

The hero known as Captain Atom was originally an astronomic engineer named Allan Adam who was accidentally trapped within an experimental rocket that atomized in the upper atmosphere.  Somehow, the experimental nature of the rocket resulted in Adam’s consciousness remaining and he was able to reconstitute his body and now possessed a host of nuclear-based super powers (including flight, energy projection and the capacity to absorb and modulate radiation).  Taking on the alias of Captain Atom, he went on to use these powers as a superhero and had numerous adventures.  

Following The Crisis of Infinite Earths event, the hero was folded into the main DC Universe and his civilian identity and back story was re-conceptualized.  In the new telling, Captain Atom was a veteran Air Force officer named Nathaniel Adam who was wrongfully convicted of a high crime in the military court.  Facing a death sentence, Adam opted to participate in a highly dangerous experiment.  The experiment involved Adam being inside of a crashed alien ship when its hull was blasted by an atomic weapon.  

Both Adam and the ship were seemingly disintegrated.   Some twenty years later, Adam suddenly reappeared with the alien metal of the spacecraft, now bonded around his body.  This secondary skin bestowed him the aforementioned super powers (explained by the alloy’s capacity to tap into the ‘quantum field’).  

Once more assuming the alias of Captain Atom, the hero would go on to serve as a member of The Justice League as well as League’s European division and the special operations team called Extreme Justice.    

Versions of Captain Atom have existed in numerous realities and different continuities.  Iterations of the hero have included Dr. Manhattan from the Watchmen Universe as well as the tragic figure known as Breach.
