I've still got a small advantage.

Games

Ray Palmer's incarnation of The Atom appears in the background of a Injustice: Gods Among Us stage. He is seen near a computer. He is also playable in a S.T.A.R. Labs mission.

Ray's protégé, Ryan Choi, appears as The Atom in the sequel of Injustice 2, as DLC and the first character in Fighter Pack 3. He appears with an updated, armored suit.

About Atom

Ryan Choi started his adult life as a teaching assistant to Ivy University professor Ray Palmer, better known as Atom. Ryan was also Palmer’s confidante about the latter’s exploits as Atom. They worked together so closely that Ryan became as proficient in using Palmer’s tech as Palmer himself. One day, Palmer became trapped in a remote location and sent a message to Ryan for help, asking him to don a Bio-Belt and search for him. After being reprimanded by the college dean, Ryan returned to his lab via Wi-Fi using the Bio-Belt. Upon arrival he ran into Batman and Lobo, who had come to the college in hopes of recruiting Palmer into the Justice League. When Ryan revealed what happened to Palmer, Batman decided to leave, but Lobo was noticeably impressed when Ryan wrote a series of equations on the lab chalkboard. As a result, Batman and Lobo decided to recruit Ryan into the Justice League. His early exploits as Atom would follow shortly after being welcomed into the Justice League, when he was sent to recruit the superhero known as The Ray. Atom and the Justice League ran afoul of a group of Villains known as The Extremists, whom Atom helped defeat. Even though he was almost killed and forced to retreat, he later managed to track down the leader of The Extremists, Lord Havok and, after a rematch, defeated him, along with the rest of The Extremists. Since then, he has been a prominent member of the Justice League.

Biography

Ending

Injustice 2- The Atom's Ending

Brainiac's armor made him impervious to harm, from the outside, at least. He'll survive this minor brain surgery. He just won't be able to control his Skull Ship anymore. Crisis averted, I can get back to searching for my missing mentor, Professor Ray Palmer. Last year, Palmer dove headfirst into the Microverse, a subatomic dimension he himself discovered. In case he got lost, he left behind a trail of clues and designated an asthmatic research fellow, yours truly, to follow them. That trail's gone cold. Which is why I'm upgrading my bio-belt with Brainiac's technology. It's my turn to get subatomic. I'm not the strongest or bravest hero out there. But Professor Palmer? He's an Einstein-level genius. He trusted me with his astonishing legacy. The Atom is not going to let him down.

Appearance

Atom - Rebirth

The Atom wears a full-body suit divided between red and blue, with blue consisting of the chest area, while red covers the legs and waist, the gloves red as well while his boots and mask are blue.

To your right is Atom's skin, Rebirth. He is wearing his default gear. The remainder of his costumes can be found on his gallery page.

Trivia

  • Ryan mentions he was once swallowed by Giganta.
  • Ryan's voice actor, Matthew Yang King, would later voice Liu Kang and Fujin in Mortal Kombat 11 (2019).
  • Atom seems to be aware of the Mortal Kombat universe, since he learned it through playing a video game, as he mentioned Jacqui Briggs and Takeda Takahashi during one of his interactions with Vixen, who by coincidence would have Megalyn Echikunwoke voice Jacqui in Mortal Kombat 11.
  • In a mirror match, the opponent will assume that Atom is an “asynchronous phase phantom”, to which he will state that he is unstuck in space and time. At this, the opponent will mention Rip Hunter, a time travelling superhero.
