Captain Atom's metal skin is a conduit that is connected directly to the Quantum Field, a limitless void of all matter and all energy that enables him to absorb, generate and manipulate infinite amounts of energy and matter. The amount of which he can use is limited by his willpower, scientific knowledge, and imagination. The Quantum Field has given him various uses, and many of which are unknown. Although he is able to use it with limitless potential, he most commonly uses it for his superhuman physical abilities, and his ability to manipulate energy and matter. The Quantum Field also grants him various immunities and/or resistances against telepathy and molecular manipulation.
Abilities
[*][Invunerability]:Dilustel metal "skin" has a symbiotic relationship with Captain Atom's body and is virtually indestructible, highly resistant to various degrees of damage from energy, heat, lasers, missiles, warheads, the interior of a black hole, etc. In certain situations, his skin can be breached, most notably by X-ionized weapons or weapons that are made to cut/punch through any surface.His invulnerability extends to being impervious to certain magical spells and attacks.
[*][Super human Endurance]:The energies of the Quantum Field sustain Captain Atom. When covered in his Dilustel skin, he has no need for food, sleep, or oxygen. He can survive in outer space and doesn't need to breathe. His endurance is increased to superhuman levels, and he can perform strenuous activity for a long and undefined period.
[*][ Quantum Energy blasts ]:He is able to emit blasts of any type of quantum-based energy from any part of his body at once, but normally prefers using his hands for ease of aim. He is able to control the magnitude and wavelength of his energy blasts at will. He can stun his opponents with his blasts at the lowest setting. But, at higher settings, is shown to cause serious damage.The Quantum Field also grants his Quantum blasts with the effect of intense heat, and he has shown to be able to melt down dense metallic substances and heat things up with what he likes to call 'Quantum heat.' At one point, he applied his energy manipulation to manipulate the electric impulses in one's brain, in order to put them to sleep.
[*][Superhuman Reflexes] : Captain Atom is able to think, move and react at superhuman speeds, significantly greater than humans.
[*][Energy absorbstion]: Captain can absorb high amounts of energy and even nuclear energy.
[*][Techno-Interface] -Captain has the ability to telepathically interface with computer networks and the binary system.
[*][Matter Manipulation]: - He has shown to manipulate cohesive force to make 'protomatter.'
[*][Time Travel]: Captain is capable of traveling through time although it puts a large strain on his body.
[*][Flight]:Ability to fly at supersonic speeds in an atmosphere and at sub-light speeds .
[*][Enhanced abilities] Because the Quantum Field is based on his willpower, he has the ability to enhance his superhuman abilities such as strength, stamina and speed.
