What the fans say to these Black Adam characters
The character of Atom Smasher is similar to Ant-Man from the Marvelverse. It is noted however that Atom Smasher was the first one to debut followed by Marvel’s Ant-Man. And that is exactly what the fans are calling him, low-budget Ant-Man (ouch).
Although Atom Smasher and Ant-Man have very different powers, the fans still love to compare Marvel with DC.

Shared below are some of the tweets and reactions that fans had to the reveal:
