So who's reading (And LOVING) the NEw Atom?

[LanternFan]

I don't have a whole lot to say, but I just wanted to see who else thinks this book is off to a great start. I never really read much of the old Atom, but so far the new one is really impressing me.

Great writing, nice twisty-turny storyline. I don't know if his ability to control his mass and density is a new thing, but I like it. Also there's a lot of good humor in it. What with GL being rather so-so and The Flash just stinking up the joint, this is my new favorite comic.

Anyone else?

I'm still on board so far, but I have to admit it's lost a bit of the whole "NEW SERIES!!! WOWERZ!!!!" excitement. Hopefully it'll pick itself up soon.

 

[hippie_hunter]

I'm liking it.

Hmm, I'll have to keep an eye on this thread.

The Atom story was one of my favorites in BNW. I loved the twist at the end where you find out that they were targeting the presidents dog because of the way the prez kneels at his feet.

The Atom has not been this low since he was a sword-and-sorcery book.

Haven't been reading it. I'll trade it, see if I like it.

BNW = Brave New World

These mini people were trying to do some mind control on the presidents dog because they thought the commander in chief took orders from his mutt.

Please, come over to the light side. We ain't perfect, but we have better gimmicks than "OMG!!!1!!1 HEROZ FITING EACH UTHERRR!!1!!2!!" Swear to God, if there are three defining characteristics of Quesada's Marvel, they are 1) no respect for a sense of continuity, 2) way too much freedom given to writers so they can **** up a character in all the different ways they used to fantasize about back when they worked at Prairie Dog Comics Shop, and 3) pointless ****ing gimmicky fan service.

Soon, his Asian wife will divorce him for no apparent reason. In despair, he will go to South America or some stupid **** place like that, or maybe an alternate dimension, was it an alternate dimension? Anyway, with a new book called "Sword of the Atom" he'll go there, and for some God-forsaken reason, he'll become a wierd microscopic pastiche of Conan the Barbarian, Tarzan, and Sir Lancelot. Then he'll snap out of his ridiculous funk, and DC will change the title of the book back to the "All-New-All-New Atom" where he'll return to what he was always supposed to be about. Then his ex-wife will go crazy-nuts and kill some dumb ***** that nobody, and I mean NOBODY (I don't care what you say, you're lying) ever cared about before that point, launching the DC Universe into a big grief-on. The ex-wife will be found out by Batman, despite all the ****-talk that Green Arrow was engaging in earlier in the story, and that will be that. This All-New Atom will leave in disgrace, and Ray Palmer will come back, good as new. And finally, all will be right with the Atom.

Also you've got a bit of foam stuck on the corner of your mouth. It's quite unsightly.
