Briefly: It won’t hit your TV sets until the end of the month (February 25th, to be exact), but The CW and Grant Gustin have just given us our first look at Brandon Routh and his The Atom costume.

First, the CW promo photo:

And here’s Gustin’s look at the empty costume on set.:

This is today. But you’ll have to wait a while… #TheFlash #Atom

Now, I’m way behind on Arrow, and have done a pretty stand-up job at avoiding spoilers up to this point. In any case, are you looking forward to seeing Routh in costume? What have you thought of the season so far? Sound out below!

Briefly: Brandon Routh never got a second try at Superman, but that doesn’t mean he’s finished in the DC Universe.

The Superman Returns actor has just landed a 14-episode arc on The CW’s Arrow. He’ll play Atom, who can shrink himself down to subatomic size (I thought Arrow wasn’t going to have any super-powered characters, but this’ll be the second?).

The character will also act as a love interest for Felicity. Further details haven’t been revealed at this point, but I’m sure we’ll hear more as San Diego Comic-Con approaches.

Are you down for Routh as Atom? Is there another actor you’d rather have seen in the role? Sound out below!
