Description
The individuals who can tap into the energies of the Quantum Field of the DC Universe.

Starting from the top -

Silver Shield - The source of the near indestructible metal Dilustel. Originally appearing to be a massive spherical alien space craft that with the use of 'x-ionised' cutting equipment, would have samples taken for tests. It would years later awaken and assume the form of a tall, winged humanoid with six limbs ( two legs, four arms, and standing about 7ft ). Its missing hand is the portion of its body that was taken as samples for the 'Project Atom' experiments. Incredibly powerful ( possibly the most powerful being in the DC Universe given that Captain Atom, Major Force and Bombshell are fractions of what the Silver Shield is ), but also trusting and benevolent, he is fascinated by Earth.

Middle row -

The Ghost/Alec Rois - A former CIA spook who would in part be responsible for the framing of Nathaniel Adam for murder. Years later he was making use of an advanced quantum device while posing as a scientist, an encounter with Captain Atom resulted in his apparent death, when instead the device had given him a direct link to the Quantum field, effectively making him Captain Atoms equal. He would finally perish when his connection to the Quantum Field was cut off by Dr Henrich Megala.

Major Force/Clifford Zmeck - Formerly of the US Airforce, the psychotic Sergent Zmeck was imprisoned for the murder of an officers wife, witnessed by the woman's own son. Deemed expendable he was subjected to a similar experiment as Nathaniel Adam, being put inside a capsule made of the Silver Shield, but this time over twice as much metal. Years later he would emerge from the Quantum Field into the waiting arms of the Government, before his body hardened into it's dilustel shell, Zmeck was operated on, fitted with cameras, gas pellets and explosives, to ensure that he would be more compliant than Nathaniel Adam.

Ironfire/Martin Allard - The boy who witnessed his mothers brutal murder would eventually grow up to become an Airforce Captain with his hand on the button to kill Major Force. Allard was the right hand of General Eiling ( who had effectively taken charge of Project Atom ) until his kidnapping by the Ghost. Allard was beaten, tortured, brainwashed and subjected to a variant Quantum experiment to create a being that could tip the balance in the future conflict between the Ghost and Captain Atom. rendered inert when his connection to the quantum field was cut off.

Bottom row -

Bombshell/Amy Sue Allen - A young woman who would join the Teen Titans, Amy Allen would later turn traitor on them. A fairly petty character, she has no connection to Captain Atom/Nathaniel Adam in spite of a striking resemblance and very similar if much weaker powers. The character has had little else to do and never encountered the man she seems to have based herself on ( i felt the writers also had little grasp on how the dilustel metal was meant to work but then Bombshell was created in 2006, but i felt like including her ).

Captain Atom/Nathaniel Adam - Wrongly convicted Airforce captain who was accidentally hurled years into the present and transformed into Dilustel coated, quantum energy superman by Project Atom while finding out his children are now adults barely younger than himself. Over the years he has moved between being in government service and being a Justice League member. His son Randal Eiling is an Airforce Lieutenant, while his daughter Margaret Eiling works at the Daily Planet.

Waverider/Matthew Ryder - The scientist Matt Ryder grew up in a future time ruled by the mysterious armored superbeing 'Monarch'. Fascinated by the bygone time of the metahuman superheroes, Ryder was offered a chance to take part in Monarchs quantum energy experiments to enable the tyrant to master time itself. But Ryder sought to use this chance to end the rule of Monarch, and used his newfound ability to travel back to the period of Monarchs rise and try to stop him. Waverider would become a guardian of time until his unexpected ( and highly unlikely ) death at the hands of a Mister Mind controlled Skeets ( Booster Golds 25th century museum security droid ). His powers reflected his more cerebral nature.
