More like more powerful/advanced Iron Man.

The Atom is more comparable to Ant Man.

After watching the trailer I’m leaning towards Spider Man.

General vibe maybe? But his powers and whatnot are very different.

“The Atom”?

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

Doesn't sound any more dated than "Ant Man" hah

[-] vzq@lemmy.blahaj.zone -5 points 1 year ago

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.
