Cyclotron

Roy Thomas and Jerry Ordway introduced Cyclotron to DC's Bronze Age readership in All-Star Squadron #24 (1983), weaving him into the rich tapestry of wartime superhero mythology that series did so brilliantly. A rare figure whose catalog footprint is small but meaningful — including a key issue among his handful of appearances — he earned a place in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe, DC's ultimate roll call of characters worth remembering. He shares his pages with luminaries like Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Atom, and Johnny Quick, which tells you something about the exalted company Thomas placed him in. For collectors drawn to the deep bench of the All-Star Squadron era, Cyclotron is exactly the kind of hidden gem that rewards digging.
