The Atom #10

In "Ride a Deadly Grenade!", The Atom finds himself trapped inside a magnetically sealed grenade, captured by foreign agents led by the menacing Ferdinand Alt. With Jean Loring and a C.I.A. agent racing against time, the fate of the hero—and the stakes of a high-stakes international crisis—hangs in the balance as the villain prepares a public broadcast of his demise.

In "The Mysterious Swan-Maiden!", The Atom [Ray Palmer] dives into a baffling bank heist in Ivy City, where a young woman—Jean Loring—claims to have seen a figure transform into a swan before vanishing. As Palmer pieces together clues with the help of Judge Emil Potter and local figures like Johnny Trent and Bill Cook, he finds himself entangled in a case that defies logic, with the enigmatic Doro Briggs, the Swan-Maiden, at its center. With Nordic myth and scientific skepticism clashing, Palmer must unravel a mystery that blurs the line between legend and reality.
