Well Uncle by adoption but still counts.

I think I just found out my biggest DC deep cut. I feel like I gave away my biggest secret lol.

Lol. "Secrets will be revealed and the DC universe will never be the same again."

Lol. "Secrets will be revealed and the DC universe will never be the same again."

DC is now scrambling to have Dr.Polaris murder Grant or something.

But imagine it, there's a whole wealth of stories that can come out of that relation. DC do stuff with this, not murder and angst.

This makes me want DC to finally do an Atom book .

When was the last time Atom even had a mini? The Gail Simone Ryan book?

Indeed. Then Ray was featured in the countdown to infinite crisis and popped in and out of books, same with Ryan. But there hasn’t been a solo Atom book since then which is quite sad. Ray did have two issues that were solo in the JLA rebirth book by Orlando during the microverse arc.

Not just an Atom book but an Atom book with all the different versions together and some how all connected. Johns needs to do it. Its what he does.

Nice! So that's the Pre and Post Crisis version.

I don't even know who's Dr. Polaris.

Dr. Polaris is a Green Lantern villain. He is a master of magnetism. DC's Magneto,(Except I think he came out before Magneto) He also has a split personality. Good side and bad side.

There was a really lame version in Futures End though I liked his costume in a what the hell were they thinking kind of way.

I will always love bringing up Futures End because it is one of the absolute worse stories DC has done. No one remembers it or cares and I think that's worse than even something like HiC. Stories should make you feel SOMETHING but if it doesn't make you feel anything, not even canon, and is a boring depressing mess with the whole story being pointless then you have failed spectacularly.

Seriously it baffles me that it was made and was a huge maxi-series that just seemingly doesn't exist. Also pretty much everyone has a bad design in it.
