|history = The entity that became the human Atomicus was formed in the Atomic Research Lab at [[Fort Kanigher]] in April of 1961. His first act of heroism was to rescue [[Dr. Vasily Petrov]], a Soviet defector. (Soviet agents were attempting to return Dr. Petrov to Russia.)

Atomicus' alter ego, Adam Peterson, started working for the staff of Astro City's mayor, [[Mayor Morton|Morton]] (first name unknown), shortly thereafter. Also working for the staff was [[Irene Meriwether]], a mayoral aide. Atomicus and Meriwether were known to be a couple before Peterson's appearance. At the time, it was still not known that Peterson was Atomicus. Meriwether soon suspected the connection, however, and went about mercilessly attempting to prove that Peterson and Atomicus were one in the same. When she finally succeeded, the furious Atomicus left the Earth, never to be seen again. | Atomicus' alter ego, Adam Peterson, started working for the staff of Astro City's mayor, [[Mayor Morton|Morton]] (first name unknown), shortly thereafter.
