The Atom
Not many people are aware of the Atom, mainly because they haven’t read the comics or haven’t seen him in many issues, but he has been a valuable part of the DC universe. The Atom is originally known as Al Pratt during the Golden Age, a man with a smalle statue but with superhuman strength; he was a founding member of the Justice Society. Ray Palmer took the name during the Silver Age, a physics professor at Ivy University who developed equipment to shrink himself down to subatomic levels while maintaining regular mass.
