    Yeah the Frank cover is cool, but I was just lookig at Mahmud Asrar's artwork and WOW. Incredible stuff.

    I'm going to have to look for him at C2E2 and see what he charges for a sketch.

    I really really really dig these news - but I don't think I am willing to buy 10 issues of Adventure Comics only for the back-up story.

    Anyone knows if DC has any intention of collecting only the Atom back-up story afterwards?

    Embiggens is a perfectly cromulent word...

    ... I think this seems cool I never really followed Ray Palmer/the Atom but I think if Adventure Comics finds its feet (hopefully with Superboy headlining again) I'll check it out. Also sweet cover

    I feel the same way. I haven't been reading Adventure or following any news regarding what is lined up for the title. Is Superboy the permanent main feature?

    I'm excited to read the Atoms adventures, but as I'm not a Superboy fan, I don't think it would be worth the money for me. I'd have preferred an Atom co feature in a Hawkman book or a Superman book.

    But anyway, yay for Ray. He's one of DC's best heroes and he's been on the sideline too long.

    Well, it's good to see another successive hero be replaced by his predecessor.

    I really like the Atom as a concept, but I much prefer Ryan Choi.

    ...Technically it is. If I remember right, Levitz has said that Adventure will be sort of a retelling of the classic Legion stories with Clark in the future as Superboy--a way of having a one stop-shop to find out the origins of the Legion, so that people can get more of the drama in his actual Legion book.

    As for this, that back-up does sound really badass. I kinda wish they could say where Ryan's going, but still.
