His years in the jungle have taught him how to survive anywhere…and now the world's smallest superhero, the Atom, is back in an ongoing series! Ray Palmer returns to the United States, leaving behind the South American jungle civilization and its people he had embraced in the Sword of the Atom miniseries. But the America he comes home to is different, and it's all he can do to readjust to the changes.

Ray Palmer's back from the jungle and he ain't happy.

The tribe of little people he was living with, including the woman he loved, has all been wiped out by the CIA, he can't return to full size, his cheating ex wife has written a tell all book on his superhero days and he's been given one of those ugly masks that shows his hair through the top.

Can't get much worse.
