Thanks, Jon. I really enjoyed this flight back to my early childhood. I was a fan! Alas, my five-year old self totally missed the punning catch phrase of "up and atom". If only... It would have launched a thousand dad jokes in later life.

Atom Ant is one of my all-time favorite television animation characters. I have been trying to emulate what Hanna-Barbera achieved in this show in my own superhero fiction ever since I was first exposed to it.
