{{R comics to list entry}}
At this time, Molecule's true name and origin are unknown. He was a member of the [[Teen Titans (comics)|Teen Titans]] during the so-called "one year gap" between the ''[[Infinite Crisis]]'' and ''[[One Year Later]]'' storylines. A picture of him in a scrapbook made by fellow Titan [[Raven (comics)|Raven]] depicts Molecule as a few inches tall, leaning against a paper clip. His costume a green version of the one worn by [[Atom (Ray Palmer)|Ray Palmer, The Atom]], when he was a member of the Titans.

Molecule's first "on-panel" appearance takes place in ''[[52 (comic book)|52]]: Week Thirty-Two''. Standing on the shoulder of the heroine, [[Argent (comics)|Argent]], Molecule appears around six inches tall (much larger than a paper clip), implying that he has the ability to alter his size, rather than being permanently miniaturized. Whether he possesses the ability to return to human proportions is not known. Dialogue in ''Week Thirty-Four'' reveals that Molecule and Argent had been a couple but have since broken up.
