Ray Palmer, at Ivy University, uses the properties of a white dwarf star to shrink himself to many different diminutive sizes, down to the sub-atomic scale (first appearance, Showcase No. 34, Sep/Oct 1961: "Birth of the Atom"). After mastering this ability, Palmer calls himself the Atom and joins the fight against crime. The Atom has many adventures with Superman as both are members of the Justice League of America.
