Atto the Artificial Man (character bio)

The world's fastest biomechanical being with the core of speed and time at his center, created by an adventurous scientist by the name of Fox Carmichael to fight crime and bust gangs and was eventually drafted as one of the first members in the Multi-Team during world War II.


Atto is an interesting case, being a robot you'd expect him to be rather humorless, constantly speaking about logic and such, and although that might be what you meet at the beginning you will quickly find out that that's an act to mess with people, with the real Atto being a lot more humorous and clever.


Always found with a smile on his face, Atto was created in the late 1930s by The adventurous doctor Fox Carmichael after a trip to a forgotten, beyond ancient Temple where he discovered a mysterious artifact of impossible power, the Core of Speed and Time.


Using this artifact he constructed a artificial body around it, a body not just of steel and aluminum, but also flesh grown with the doctor's own DNA, with Atto soon being born and shown to the world.


With his first demonstration being to a privately assembled group of fellow scientists and reporters who witnessed Atto's fantastic abilities of immense strength, speed and self molecular control.


Needless to say in the small middle American city he called home he would end up making quite the splash, busting crime and evil around every corner, soon catching the attention of the enigmatic hero The Skeleton, one of the big and first widely known mystery men, who would approach our metal speedster with a proposition, to be a part of a team of fantastic heroes like himself and fight the good fight overseas against the forces of evil.


Atto being the hero he was, was excited and giddy at the idea and already planning to accept the offer, especially since it was coming from such a legend as The Skeleton, and after discovering his new arch enemy, the evil wizard of time and speed, Speedstorr was allied with the Germans, Atto was more then willing to join.


Atto was soon fighting not only alongside his fellow Heroes such as Lady Justice, The Ice Cube the 2nd, John Joe Shootem the 3rd, Captain Electron, Tanko The Man Tank and of course The Skeleton but also the soldiers of the allied forces in some of the wars most important battles, most notably a clash at Normandy where Atto faced off against Speedstorr and his apprentice, Hans Blitzer nicknamed Blonde Streak by Atto, this conflict being were Atto unlocked the true power of the core of speed and time, but that is a story best saved to be told in the comics rather then explained here.




The sketch at the top I made of how I imagine Atto looking like, 
I used two golden age
Comics to trace over to create this
Specifically a depiction of the hero
Cyclone from issue #2 of whirlwind comics
And The lower half is from a story
Involving the hero blackout, I don't know
What issue this one comes from do to
How I archived it but he appears in 
The Holyoke comics line Catman Comics
All of which can be found on comic book
Plus, also his design is a mix of the
Two mentioned superheroes plus some
Inspiration from Volton, the wizard of speed And time and even iron man
