Captain Atom/Fridge

Fridge Brilliance

 * When I first read Captain Atom: Armageddon, I thought the ending was a rather silly Deus Ex Machina, until I realized that the whole story was one giant Deus Ex Machina, and that it was brilliant. The Wildstorm universe, the epitome of the Dark Age of comics, had just gone too wrong to continue. The only way to save it was to bring in a true-blue hero from mainstream DC continuity to fix things. -- Richard AK
