Still, I haven't read it in such a long time... did it really fit better as its own book that way?
Captain Atom is the easiest since CA #30 only includes 2 pages of epilogue material to the Janus Directive (the climax to the story actually occurs in Suicide Squad #30).  The core of the issue is a stand-alone fight with Black Manta, so I personally wouldn't bother with the whole Janus Directive if doing a solo Captain Atom bind.
