Atomic Mouse 1

Atomic Mouse is a funny-animal superhero created in 1953 by Al Fago for Charlton Comics.

Cimota Mouse (his first name being "atomic" spelled backwards) is an ordinary mouse whom an evil wizard shrinks to the size of an atom. In that microscopic realm, a Professor Invento gives U-235 pills that grant Cimota superpowers, which he uses to fight for justice against the evil Count Gatto.

The series ran 52 issues through cover-date February 1963. From 1981 to 1962, Charlton published an additional five issues, vol. 2, #11-16, containing reprinted material and used as promotional giveaways. Writer Mike Curtis and penciler Charles Ettinger revamped the character in Shanda Fantasy Arts' SFA's Atomic Mouse, which ran for three issues published from 2001 to 2004.

Fago went on to create Atomic Rabbit (a.k.a. Atomic Bunny) and Atom the Cat.
