Nuklon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nuklon is the name of two fictional superheroes in the DC Comics Universe.
[edit] Al Rothstein
Godson to Al Pratt (the Golden Age Atom), Albert Rothstein acquired his powers of super-strength and control over his molecular structure from his grandfather, a reluctant supervillain known as Cyclotron, allowing him to fight crime first as Nuklon, and later as Atom Smasher.
As Nuklon, Albert was a charter member of Infinity Inc. and subsequently served in the Justice League. He took the Atom Smasher identity shortly before the re-founding of the Justice Society of America, of which he was a charter member.
[edit] Gerome McKenna
52 presents Gerome McKenna as one of the first official subjects for Lex Luthor's "Everyman Project".
Luthor's project grants super-powers to McKenna, who is given the codename Nuklon after Luthor buys the rights to Infinity Inc. from the Pemberton Estate.
