Created by writer-artist Al Fago, the funny-animal superhero Atomic Mouse debuted in Charlton Comics' Atomic Mouse #1 (cover-dated March 1953).[1][2] The series ran 52 issues through cover-date February 1963, with the Grand Comics Database noting, "Overstreet has listed #53-54, but there is no evidence they actually exist." From 1961 to 1962, Charlton published an additional five issues, vol. 2, #11-16, containing reprinted material and used as promotional giveaways.[3] Another reprint issue, Atomic Mouse vol. 3, #1 (Dec. 1984) followed,[4] as did a three-issue fourth volume (#10-12, Sept. 1985 – January 1986).
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.[6][7] The same publisher issues the one-shot publication SFA's Atomic Mouse vs. Power Jack in 2009.
Fago went on to create Atomic Rabbit (a.k.a. Atomic Bunny) and Atom the Cat.
