THE FIGHT
In an all-out battle, Firestorm controlled by Doctor Megala battles Captain Atom.
The battle to decide who can survive a nuke! Toggle Firestorm’s Negative Damage under our Damage Points to find out the power of a nuke.
POWER OF A 6.3 MEGATON NUKE:
MOVES:
Static:
- Firestorm blasted Captain Atom with an atomic blast capable of leveling a city with added sound effects. How cool is that?
- Later, he triggered a powerful tsunami wave that threatened Captain Atom.
Sunspot:
- Captain Atom actually showed a powerful blast that Firestorm survived. Momentarily, the blast was so powerful that it weakened Doctor Megala’s hold on Firestorm’s body.
- Captain Atom cranked up the dials with a piledrive attack that collided into Firestorm like a comet. Talk about a cosmic being!
STYLE:
Static:
- Firestorm’s suit allows him to contain his Firestorm Matrix which appears as fire on his head. The New 52 suit is an upgrade from earlier models.
- Captain Atom has a containment suit to contain his unstable energies.
DAMAGE SCALE
 | An all-out brawl between two DC powerhouses. CAPTAIN ATOM ENERGY MANIPULATION (x5) ATTACKS: 6 DAMAGE PTS (x5) = 30 DAMAGE PTS. FIRESTORM ENERGY MANIPULATION (x4) ATTACKS: 6 DAMAGE PTS (x4) = 24 DAMAGE PTS. |
ADAM’S NEGATIVE DAMAGE:
Toggle the Toggle Arrow below to view the calculations.
-24 DAMAGE PTS.
Energy of a 6.3 MegaTon Nuke = 6300000 Ton of TNT.
-(24 DAMAGE PTS * 2.646e+16 J * 1 s * 1 Ton of TNT)/(10 s * 4.2*10^9 J) = -15120000 PTS * Ton of TNT.
Captain Atom’s Durability = (-15120000
PTS * Ton of TNT)/(6300000 Ton of TNT) =
-2.4 PTS.
Durability = 3 – 2.4 = 0.6 PTS = PEAK HUMAN.
DURABILITY: PEAK HUMAN
FIRESTORM’S NEGATIVE DAMAGE:
Toggle the Toggle Arrow below to view the calculations.
-30 DAMAGE PTS.
Energy of a 6.3 MegaTon Nuke = 6300000 Ton of TNT.
-(30 DAMAGE PTS * 2.646e+16 J * 1 s * 1 Ton of TNT)/(10 s * 4.2*10^9 J) = -18900000 PTS * Ton of TNT.
Captain Atom’s Durability = (-18900000
PTS * Ton of TNT)/(6300000 Ton of TNT) =
-3 PTS.
Durability = 3 – 3 = 0 PTS = NEAR DEATH.
DURABILITY: NEAR DEATH
WINNER: FIRESTORM WINS BY BATTLE FIELD REMOVAL

CAPTAIN ATOM IN COMICS
Space Adventures (1960) #33, titled “Introducing Captain Adam” marks the first appearance of Captain Atom in DC continuity. The issue tells the origin story of Captain Atom: Allen Adam’s body was vaporized after he was launched in an experimental rocket. However, he survived and was able to re-form his body by using the power of the atom. Donning a special body suit to protect from radiation, he became Captain Atom.
The comic was written by Joe Gill and penciled by Steve Ditko.
