Captain Atom = Doctor Manhattan.
Silk Spectre = Phantom Lady
Owlman = Blue Beetle.
And it goes on and on.
I'm perfectly aware that Moore based his characters on the Chartlon characters, I just wanted to make you say he was ripping them off.
This is something you said in another thread:

Are they ripoffs or original characters? Just now, you said they were ripoffs. In your opinion, a story can't be good if it's a ripoff of a previous concept. Does Watchmen suck, then?
