Atoman

Golden Age Origin
Barry Dale, while working as a nuclear scientist at the "Atomic Institute," through unconscious exposure to nuclear materials absorbs the "power of the atom" and gains superpowers as a result. As described by Barry himself as ,"Evidently my body is so geared as a result of working on radium and uranium that it can explode atoms and give me atomic strength." He uses his new abilities, such as super strength, flight, speed, invulnerability, "atomic vision," and the ability to heat his body so that he can weld metal with his hands, to fight crime.
