    “The Atom”?

    And they say DC characters are dated. You sure changed my opinion.

        You really think so?

        Ant man is a silly concept, but largely timeless.
        Atom man is a product of a very very narrow time period, much like “Telecaster” or “Radio Flyer”.

          He’s just called “The Atom”, actually. And I mean, isn’t it just an opinion? I think both can be silly, considering both essentially do the same things.
