Lol. Nicely put. Although I don't think it should be that hard. But it's current DC so...
Also, appropriate image.
It was nice to have Atom in Hawkman and Superman the last two months. Although briefly. And drawn by Reis and Hitch no less.
I'm reading the silver age JLA now and they use him pretty well in there. He definitely adds more than Green Arrow or even Batman.
Looking forward to see how they use him further on in the series and into the satalite years.
My name is Wally West. I"m the fastest man alive. I"m the Flash.

He is definitely a top tier hero. Maybe not on Superman and Batman level, or even Green Lantern or Flash. More on the level of Hawkman and Martian Manhunter but still up there.
So makes sense DC was using him as they did all their top heroes in some way or another back then. Once they brought in Choi in the 00's then I guess they were trying to push him more.
I didn't read the micro verse story in JLA. I flipped through it and it seemed to me that even though Ray was there he wasnt in the spotlight so I didnt bother with it.

I want to say it was issues 15 and 16....don’t quote me on that but there were two issues that were purely Ray Palmer..... which was the only reason I purchased them. They explained why he was in the microverse and how he got there, etc. They were actually pretty good! Then of course they just left him there and forgot all about him, until Carter showed up in Hawkman.

The Atom is one of my faves. An art team can have so much fun with him. I'd really like to see him come back!
I feel the same way. I used to think an Atom live-action would be tough because it's hard to convey the weight-changing ability without some kind of exposition (IMO, The Vision has this same problem with density control). However, after watching Ant-Man I came to the conclusion that it can be done.
