About the series
A short-lived two-issue series from DC, Captain Atom (2012–2013) saw writer J. T. Krul and artist Freddie Williams II explore the aftermath of the character's reality-altering powers. Picking up threads from the Flashpoint event, this brief run finds Captain Atom struggling with his fragmented existence and the terrifying scope of his abilities. While its run was cut short, the series is notable for Williams II's dynamic, kinetic artwork and its attempt to grapple with the psychological weight of near-omnipotence. It stands as a compact, visually striking chapter in the character's modern history.
