    Default The Atoms

    What would you think about a comic starring Al Pratt and Ray Palmer?

    I'm a Ryan Choi guy.
    Did you know that every atom in our bodies was once part of a star? Think about that… EVERYTHING changes. Caterpillars turn into butterflies and stars turn into @$$holes.

    Gimme all of 'em.

    Need a new "heroic" Atomica? Let's bring back an unfridged Princess Laethwyn!

    Team Atom. A team of microscopic explorers, team-leader and military liaison Al Pratt, scientists Ray and Ryan, and mysterious miniature princess Laethwyn.
    Retro315 no more. Anonymity is so 2005.

    OK, let's have all four. I bet it would work. Just call it The Atoms.

    The Atom has been a hard sell for decades. They'd be better off keeping things simple if they tried a new series, rather than throwing a bunch of different iterations together.

    So Choi is going to sell a solo title? You think? Be realistic here. The best you can do is get him on a team. Something is usually better than nothing, and if that doesn't suit you, that's too bad. Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

    Al Pratt and Ray Palmer are both among my all time favorite characters i'd love to read a comic starring both of them.

    lol i think it'd sell alot better than f*ckin al pratt. i'd definitely buy it. the problem is racist fans and dc themselves who dont support minority heroes. theres a reason people think dc is the "all white club". we get it you're stuck in the past and want old characters but its 2016 and ryan choi deserves a solo. idk why you even bothered asking people what they think if you're gonna get all defense and argue with them for having different opinions

    I didn't say Al Pratt should get a solo title. YOU said Ryan Choi should get a solo title..

    I'm saying Choi should be on this team, and you're playing the care card? Be serious.

    Anyway, if you want to see an Asian hero, you should want to see me write Green Lantern. I promise you'd get one. But that's another topic.

    I guess I am one of those fans who really liked the concept of the Atom & bought every series that starred The Atom (Al, Ray or Ryan)

    Let's stay on topic. These four Atoms could make a good team. None of them could carry a solo title, but the four together and the dynamic they'd create could fly. It needs a good writer to get it started and get it some attention, but the concept is solid and wouldn't depend on any particular writer.

    We need to get DC thinking about The Atoms, a Charlton team title called Pax Americana and a Flash team title called Speed Force.

    Another word that has punch is "order."

    Yeah. The Atomic Order. That'll fly.
