“Bialya Bound” Written by Cary Bates & Greg WeismanPencilled by Paris CullinsInks by Bob SmithColors by Shelley EiberLetters by Carrie SpiegleEdited by Denny O’Neil & Dan Raspler It seems kind of a shame that the main story in a Captain Atom annual wasn’t drawn by Pat Broderick. But at least he shows up in the backup story. It has a beautiful cover by Paris Cullins who also did the interiors.…

The Fall and Rise of Captain Atom #6 (August 2017)

“Mission Creep” Writers: Cary Bates, Greg Weisman Pencils & Inks: Will Conrad Colors: Ivan Nunes Letters: Saida Temofonte Editors: Jim Chadwick, Kristy Quinn Cover Artist: Anna Dittmann Time to rip off the band-aid and dive into the last issue of this mini-series. At first I put off covering this one because I wanted to see where Captain Atom went next (nowhere as it turned out). Then I just…

Steel #11 - 13 (January-March 1995)

Steel #11 – 13 (January-March 1995)

So, Steel has an adventure in space! And the newly-formed EXTREME Justice team is on hand. Again, it’s just a little cameo for Captain Atom. He really needed his own solo title again at this point. Now, I like Steel as a character. There still aren’t enough heroes of color in comics. But, can we all agree as a society that comics in the mid 1990s kind of really sucked?

Some Justice League Cameo Appearances (1988-2006)

Some Justice League Cameo Appearances (1988-2006)

Back when these would crop up, I used to wonder why they ever put Captain Atom on the team if they just didn’t know what to do with him. Justice League International #20-21 (Dec 1988-Jan 1989) Justice League International #24 (February 1989) Justice League America #32 (November 1989) Justice League America #53 (August 1991) Justice League America #54 (September 1991) Justice League…

Justice League International Annual #3 (1989)

“Around the World With the Justice League” Writers: Keith Giffen & J.M. DeMatteis Pencils: Mike McKone Inks: Pablo Marcos This really just amounts to a cameo appearance. Captain Atom appears on just two pages, looking like a metallic Roger Daltrey and being all angsty.

Total Justice (October-November 1996)

Remember Total Justice?!?!?! Me neither. But Captain Atom was in it. I’m tired of these cameos. When’s our next series? That’ll be the New 52, a good 15 years or so out….

Captain Adym (Legion Lost)

The curious case of Captain Adym (Legion Lost)

This version of Captain Atom sprung from the pages of the New 52’s Legion Lost series. How he fits in with the New 52 Captain Atom is a bit strange. When we first meet him, he’s a captain in the science police stationed on the planet Zuun in the early 31st century. He displays no discernable powees. His partner calls him “Nate,” and he has an interest in the burgeoning “career” of the super-hero…

Captain Atom Cameos (2001-2011)

It has been a while since I updated the “Cameos” page of this blog. I’m currently laid up in bed after a pretty serious car crash and have little else to do with my time, so here’s a quick update.
