The Spiritron is a pure energy atomic particle that flows within and through everything. In its rawest form the Spiritron (St) is very active and will attempt to bond with any matter, however Spiritrons do not naturally bond to each other unless forced to do such. One example being when (St's) are pulled through a black hole. Such a massive compression of time and space can easily force Spiritrons to become so close together they combine into a cluster. By nature the (St) is drawn to all matter and bonds to it directly. Once matter is bonded with a certain amount of (St) more (St) can not naturally bond to the matter. Manipulation of the (St) has dozens of methods. Magic, Spiritual Arts, and Alchemy being only a few. The (St) follows similar but not the exact rules that all atoms do. A positive, a negative, and a chaotic. The chaotic constantly changes between positive and negative allowing it to circle the cluster of the (St). Manipulation of the positive, negative and chaotic aid in the development of magic and alchemy. By breaking down the Spiritron on such a level a mage can create thunderous lightning bolts and potent fireballs. An alchemist can use this manipulation to aid in the creation of a new metal, or in the shaping of the object they are trying to create.
The Atom stories on Batman: The Brave and the Bold are some of my all-time favorites, whether it's Ryan's deference to Ray's classical superheroism or just the fact that Batman and Aquaman are down to adventure.

Fan of Ray Palmer as The Atom
"History of the DC Universe" by Wolfman and Perez, when the DCU use to make sense.
I'd also recommend the 1990s Atom Specials. There were two of them, both written by Tom Peyer (see also the Power of the Atom and the upcoming Convergence Atom comics).

I thought those were a couple of good, entertaining comics with some pretty phenomenal art.
On an note unrelated to those specials, does anyone else remember the old Humbug villain from the Power of the Atom series? Man, I loved that creepy crazy bad guy. When I looked him up on Comic Vine and found out he didn't have an entry, I had to create an account and generate the entry myself. I wish DC still used him.
