OverviewThe startling adventures of the new Atom begin in this series based on concepts developed by comics superstar Grant Morrison, written by Gail Simone (VILLAINS UNITED) with art by John Byrne (ACTION COMICS) & Trevor Scott (THE AUTHORITY) and gorgeous covers by Ariel Olivetti (SPACE GHOST)!
Strange things have been happening in Ivy Town since Ray Palmer disappeared. In fact, it appears that the the whole town's been experimented on for decades. Enter Ryan Choi - the young hotshot professor who's filling the empty slot on Ivy University's teaching staff… and who inadvertently ends up filling the old Atom's super-heroic shoes!
Can Choi make a difference in a town more creepy and mysterious than anyone ever realized? And can he live up to the towering legend of his predecessor?

A fantastic start to the volume. This issue was humorous and intelligent at the same time which is what I enjoy in a comic. This issue explores Ryan Choi moving to to take over Ray Palmers position where he is warmly welcomed by the prestigious members of the Physics Department. The former Atom leaves Choi various clues around the apartment which lead him to find his atomic size changing belt. This leads to some very humorous experiences in miniature size involving nudity and a ‘giant’ rat. It seems there are some killer dogs on the loose that appear to be sentient and mysteriously killed Dr Edwin Katz.
5/5 Very funny and a great start to what I hope is a brilliant volume
