| - Created in 1923 by Nikola Tesla, Atomic Robo has led a long and interesting life. In 1928 he received his doctorate in physics from Columbia University. He gained his legal status as a human being and U.S. citizen after his participation in a secret military operation in 1938. That was his first of many encounters with Baron von Helsingard, who has plagued Robo throughout his existance.
Robo also fought for his country during World War II. He traveled on a secret mission to Mars in 1975. He has confronted all manner of odd creatures and machinations - from the German Laufpanzers of WWII to giant ants and Dr. Dinosaur.
In 1943 he founded Tesladyne, initially to protect his assets during his service in the war. Tesladyne eventually became a unique organization of "Action Scientists" who are called upon to investigate strange occurrences around the world.
