Arrow Brandon Routh IS Ray Palmer/The Atom

[TheComicbookKid]

It looks ok. The helmet is kind of off-putting to me, but I'm not sure why.

Hopefully the shrinking effects are Tron Legacy equivalent.

 

[Dark Raven]

Not bad. I'd have to see it in action though. Mockingbird's "costume" looked okayish in still photos on AOS but then it just looks very dark and indistinguishable from other dark jumpsuits in live action. Will he get a mask or just have the clear visor? As someone else said, it does look a bit Rollerball-ish. The clear helmet visor adds to that.

"Does the A on my chest stand for France?!"

 

[Dark Raven]

"Does the A on my chest stand for France?!"

It stands for hope, but on this planet it's an A.

 

[HighFivingMF]

It stands for hope, but on this planet it's an A.

"What's the A stand for?"

"It's not an A. On my world it means 'SCIENCE, *****!'"

"Well here it's an A."

*Ray ignores her. Does science*

Amazing suit.

 

[Gold Samurai]

Or he may just forego the whole secret identity thing , but I doubt that. His company's stockholders would not like that he's risking his life like that.

Vale: Mmm-mmm.
Ray Palmer: Well, good, because that would be outlandish and, uh, fantastic. I'm just not the hero type. Clearly. With this laundry list of character defects, all the mistakes I've made, largely public.
Hal Jordan: [whispers to Palmer] Just stick to the cards, man.

Palmer: Yeah, okay.

Palmer: [holds up his notes and pauses] The truth is...
Palmer:[puts cards down] I am The Atom .

It looks really cool, imo. The helmet doesn't look as cool as everything else, but it's fine.

Really like it

That looks awesome. I hope there is a cgi post effect with changes of tinting with clear mask though.

It's sad he got a better looking suit on a small tv network show, than he got with a big budget Superman film.

 

[Nathan]

That's one sweet suit.

 

[CaptainWagner]

I think the suit looks great. And as for the visor, I'd say

A) It can be darkened when needed

B) Ray plans on being a public superhero and won't be keeping his identity a secret (which is what I'm honestly hoping for, it would make for a good dynamic between him and Oliver)

 

[Nathan]

After seeing that suit, I think someone else should get an upgrade. Now I know they can do it, if they want to.

 

[The Shape]

Will he not be keeping his identity a secret?

 

[Boy Scout]

After seeing that suit, I think someone else should get an upgrade. Now I know they can do it, if they want to.

That looks fine for the video game, but I think it would look just as cumbersome and bulky as the current outfit in live action. The mask is a lot better, though.

I'm hoping for Plan B. It'd be nice to have an avowedly public superhero.

 

[Mister J]

I can't get over how damn fine of a suit that is, especially for a TV show.

I would love it if they did since i don't feel the hockey mask.

 

[Mister J]

...and starting at goalie, manning the net for your Starling City Sabres.... SLAAAAAAAADE WILLLLLLSONNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!

 

[Broseph44]

Damn, suit looks so awesome.

 

[Herolee10]

His suit kind of reminds me of this one....lol

 

[rashad]

Na, not really. lol

The fact the Ant-Man costume looks more CW than the Atom costume is hilarious.

 

[LL2K2]

Except for the helmet, it looks better made than the Ant-man's leather suit.

I guess they had to make it a visor so it would be easier for him to speak and not fog up. It still amazes me that Routh got a second chance at a DC hero.

The only one in the modern era of live-action superhero projects to do so, I do believe. Chris Evans (Human Torch/Captain America) is the only one to do so in the Marvel universe, and Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool/Green Lantern) and Ben Affleck (Daredevil/Batman) have one DC and one Marvel hero each.
