 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: The Atom
Within a year, he was holding down a comic of his own, and had become a member of The Justice League of America.
The writer was Gardner Fox (Doctor Fate, The Sandman), and the artist was Gil Kane (Iron Fist, Blackmark).
Since then, he's had an occasional mini-series, an occasional slot in the back pages of an anthology comic, an occasional special — they've even regressed him in age and stuck him in a latter-day incarnation of The Teen Titans — but star status eludes him.

The tales are superior examples of Gardner Fox's blend of sci-fi and superhero.
Much of Fox's work suffers from some perfunctory characterization and dialogue, but his Hawk-folks communicate a unique charm that reminds me a bit of the Thin Man films.
Indeed, the work of Gardner Fox, Joe Kubert and Murphy Anderson on HAWKMAN is legendary, and DC has spared no expense in the lavish reproduction of their work.

In the first paragraph of her "Batman Begins" review, Stephanie Zacharek refers to the "original vision of Batman creator Bob Kane." In fact, most of the elements to which she refers have little or nothing to do with Bob Kane.
Batman's origin (parents gunned down, tearful vow to defeat crime) is credited to Gardner Fox, who wrote the two-page origin sequence in Batman No. 1.
The "cloud of bats" derives mostly from the work of Frank Miller in "The Dark Knight Returns" and again, with David Mazzucchelli, in "Batman: Year One" (from which also clearly derives Gary Oldman's appearance as Jim Gordon).
