Hi Tobias,

here is one solution


In[1]:=
Format[SuperOxide]:=
  SequenceForm[H,Subscript[2],
               O,Subscript[2]]


In[2]:=SuperOxide

Out[2]=
H O
 2 2

(* it will work with the graphics Text-primitive also *)

In[3]:=
Show[
  Graphics[
    Text[
      SuperOxide,{0,0}]
     ]
  ];


Hope that helps 
Jens
