I would say this is a great piece... but it's hard knowing that you have to push off of that wonderful 18 def to do anything really useful. Also, that ESD/Stealth kinda gets me too.

For only 24 points, The All-New Atom is a bargain for the points. He has slow speed so use a flier to carry him around and base your opponent with him. If they attack him, they are likely to miss that 18 def. Even if they hit him, he gets angry and has a chance to hit for 3 damage.

Hard to rate comic accuracy since I haven't read much about the New Atom.

A solid harasser for 24 points. A good candidate for Mercenary on a JSA team.

The All-New Atom basically exists for one reason: Getting Mercenaried to JSA or Defenders. He's not bad as filler on a Scientist theme team either.

24 points for an opening 18 defense? YES, please. With his other stats and powers pretty poor, he's not much better than tie-up. He's a one-trick figure. But what a trick! For even greater effect, feat him with LONER on non-themed teams. Or you can give him LUNGE to get some small fighting ability for little cost.
(edited out MERCENARY reference)

Good try up piece and great in origins sealed. MERCENARY DOES NOT WORK how you think... It would allow him to barrow somebody else's defense but it would not allow him to give his defense out. Read the PAC and Mercenary before posting!

artangel is correct...that's what I get for reposting an old 2007 review of the character (back when that trick worked). Editing it now.

Fabulous - that's what can be said of a piece who waltzes over to your opponent and taunts them with an 18 defense, only to suddenly have Super Senses and CCE if they manage to hit him. That 2nd click is useless, don't even bother - the CCE is unprotected by ES/D or Stealth. His real value is click 4, which luckily is where folks will hit him most of the time, so just send him up into the fray secure in his steady 8 attack.

Win/Loss: 2-1 A neat tie-up piece back in the day he struggles to have a role on teams now thanks to below average values. Cheap scientist figure, if needed, I can't see much other use for Dr. Choi.
