Synopsis

Backup Feature: Ray Palmer (The Atom) visits a laboratory and learns about a mysterious ancient coin that shouldn't exist. Shrinking down and jumping into Professor Hyatt's experimental Time Pool, The Atom travels to 500 AD Camelot. There, he joins forces with the Shining Knight, the Silent Knight, and Merlin's summoned demon Etrigan to protect King Arthur from the forces of Morgaine le Fey. Enemy Ace appears on Page 34 inside a single, multi-character flashback and hallucination sequence as The Atom travels through the Time Pool during the backup feature.

Collector Notes

The backup feature is drawn by Brian Bolland, making this one of the most visually distinguished Enemy Ace cameo appearances in the archive. Bolland's hyper-detailed linework elevates a single-panel montage appearance into something worth seeking out. DC Universe Legacies was Len Wein's sweeping history of the DC universe told through the eyes of ordinary citizens, and the Time Pool sequence treats Enemy Ace as an established pillar of that history.
