    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield Jan 1, 2025

    This first issue has some really interesting ideas, but it's a bit of a slow burn that doesn't quite establish a hook yet. It feels like another piece of the larger DCU, but this first issue doesn't quite establish what the main plot thread will be. Read Full Review

    Graphic Policy - Brett Jan 1, 2025

    Justice League: The Atom Project #1 is the solid debut I was hoping for considering the quality of the creative team. It delivers a comic that is the bright action adventure that so much of DC's “All In” has been but also delivers the moral debate that John Ridley excels at. It's a comic that stands out in so many ways, entertaining while also making you think. Read Full Review

    A team of heroes using their wits and abilities to help people placed in unknown situations is an acceptable reason for a project to exist.

    If you don't have time to get your family out of the way of a flying car you sure don't have time to react to "punch the car". WTF??? I get what they were going for but it's stupid writing to get the effect you want. The Atom costumes are TRASH and you can't hardly tell which one is which. The word balloons being the same color was idiotic as well. There is a tiny border on them to differentiate but it can barely be seen. I am glad to see Ryan Choi back, always glad to see Capt. Atom, and they got the Dr. Light attitude down pat but those are the only good things I can say about this book. For me it was mainly boring. I'll stick it out a few more issues but I hope it gets significantly better because these seldom seen characters dese more
