Captain Atom #1 by Cary Bates
A wrongly accused Air Force officer in 1968 submits to a secret experiment that bonds alien metal to his body during a nuclear blast, catapulting him nearly two decades into the future with volatile quantum powers. Seized by a ruthless military handler and a cadre of scientists, he’s given a fabricated identity and coerced into serving as a government-made superhero while the truth about his past and family is weaponized to control him. The issue recounts his ordeal, tests the limits and risks of his abilities, and sets up a carefully staged public debut that conceals the manipulation behind his mission.
