      Is he just in that Ironman suit, because he's trying to help and somewhat Work on Firestorm ? .... Looks like it to me.

        NOW, he looks ordinary. I vote for a return to the classic look. The Ironman influence is all over that and it doesn't work.

          well, I always wondered how he breathed when he was smaller than an oxygen molecule.

          this takes care of that.

              It's probably so he doesn't get Radiation from the Nuclear Man.

              Honestly ..., if this was an Actual Figure Toy ..., My Son would talk me into buying Him pretty Quickly ..., Anything Ironman/Halo-ish ... Mixed with a Robotic look , he is all over.

                Looks very Micronaut-ish to me. (Which is a good thing!)

                  Don't like it one bit, I prefer the classic look

                    That sorta makes sense actually...

                      Maybe he went with the armor because people kept stepping on him? I could see that getting old quick

                      Which of those bazillion artists drew him? Whomever it was they sorta have a touch of gil Kane in their style...fits the character (the Gil Kane touch, not the armor--thats just lame-).

                          Yeah, it really isn't doing anything for me. There was a neat Atom redesign in that new Alex Ross artbook ROUGH JUSTICE (sounds like a soft core to me), but I'm a fan of the original suit. It is the most straightforward super-suit that I can imagine.

                          I love shrinky heroes.

                            I prefer his costume from "Sword of the Atom" so it's not a matter of it being a problem with a redesign, it's just a BAD design.

                            we have characters that the armor works for. Look at Jaime Reyes. That techno-organic armor thing really works for him.

                            but this? bleh.

                              If it's a special mission suit, fine. If it's his new duds...blah.
