Atom Blake was a scientific genius who, thanks to his parents’ experiments, possessed all sorts of fantastic abilities. He was raised by his Aunt Nora and Uncle Joe, but soon realized he was not a normal child. He decided to ask his Uncle Joe and found out that his “Uncle” Joe was best friends with Atom’s father, Stuart Blake. Mr. Blake left a coded message for his son explaining how he and Atom’s mother were scientists. They had created a metal bonded with all the known elements which could create energy. However, exposure to the energy killed an ape used for experiments. The Blakes realized that someone must be treated slowly over time to the rays of the metal and started to expose their son to the rays. The message ended with no details of the fates of Atom’s parents nor the source of their metal. His parents also left him a “magical” ring which makes wishes come true. Atom Blake decided to use his powers to fight crime with the assistance of his friends, Janey Smart and Homer “Dusty” Davis. His powers included super strength, invulnerability, and superhuman stamina. By his final appearance, he is said to have the strength of a hundred men, although, in his first appearance, he was overpowered by four.
