DC Comics Super Heroes Coloring Book: Atom page #2

Of course after I defiantly stand up to the powers unseen and waggle my finger at the passing of time, vowing to make this a solid week of posting... the internet goes out. All I could do was stare at the computer screen, muttering unheard and unread apologies to the hungry millions that visit this site every day.
I'm sorry I let you down.

Moving on.

Graciously supplied by M.O.T.A member Doug Zawisza, I posted the first of these bad boys here.

Unlike the addition of mad scientist in the first one, this here is just Ray Ray getting down to business. It's classic stuff ladies and gentlemen.

And his fuerza grows with each passing day.

As with the first one, I recommend (insist?) that you print out the large version of this, color it in (stay between the lines) and send it in to DC recommending (insisting) that Damian's Search for Ray Palmer Children's Activity Book get the green light.

DC Comics Super Heroes coloring book: Atom page

This page was taken directly from my Search for Ray Palmer Children's Activity Book!

That's obviously not true as no one would dare green light my Atom activity book.

But this fun scene is from a 1996 Golden Books DC Comics Super Heroes coloring book, featuring mullet Superman, provided to me by fellow F.O.A.M. member and Hawkman nut Doug Zawisza. As you can see, Ray is readying his atomic punch for some mad scientist face. I had no idea The Atom was in there, so I give thanks to Doug for sending this to me.
What needs to happen next is that everyone gets a copy of this (click on the picture for the colorable (?) version. There's another one as well), colors it in, and sends it to DC begging them for Damian's Search for Ray Palmer Children's Activity Book. It's like where's Waldo, but much cooler. And there's coloring!

Speaking of ripping things off, having acquired several Atom related things from gracious senders in the last few weeks, it had occurred to me that maybe I should rip-off (excuse me, the term is "borrow") Rob Kelly's F.O.A.M. group and put something together of my own. Sort of a "thanks for this wonderful thing you sent me, now you're part of such and such, here's your membership." We're looking for a team atmosphere here at the T3.

Maybe M.O.T.A. Yanno, Mates of the Atom.

On the positive side, it's a lot like SOTA (Sword of the Atom) and POTA (Power of the Atom) with the lone exception being one letter. And if you're familiar with the Atom fleer tattoo, or perhaps a mirror, you might just see... Mota spells Atom backwards!!! I am out of control good!

On the other hand, I'm not Australian, so "mates" might be a bit of a push. And to anyone not familiar with it's inception and not particularly interested in researching it, might just seem like a list of people Ray Palmer tried to breed with.

Maybe it's not a good idea. Suggestions?
(Here's one: Get your own identity!)

Chime in on all matters. And as always, we're excited.

Thanks again, Doug!

Justice League party loot bags!

Here's a hot item at the tiny titan... The Atom is on there. Can you find him?

Keep looking.
You did it! Congratulations, you found The Atom, the world's smallest superhero! (although there's some bug running around at Marvel...)

That's right, Justice League Unlimited party loot bags. Yasee, they're bags (a 6 pack in this case) that you fill up with goodies for the attendees at whatever particular Justice League party the child (or adult) is attending.

Or in this case, it's the only JLU item I have found so far that features The Atom, action figures aside. Not even the night light has him. Not even on the package which features everyone and their mommas. Have to make room for Green Arrow's boxing glove arrow...
That aside, the JLU has given me some entertaining and completely random items featuring the Red Tornado and Dr. Fate. Thanks guys!

Now if only DC would listen to me and put out a children's activity book called "The Search for Ray Palmer," featuring things such as what we did here, but a little more involved. Where's Waldoish. I've been doing it for years. It's about time the kids stretch their minds with it!
