The closest thing I have in my media library. I’ve not actually read a Metal Men comic.
Admittedly the only things I know about the Metal Men come from their appearance on the Batman: The Brave & The Bold cartoon and I think a DC Nation short. I do now that “Tina” (aka Platinum) was hot for her creator in the comics (weird sort of daddy issues) and in the show she was one of the every women who was hot for Batman. Yes, I wrote that correctly. Every woman on that show wanted to open Batman’s utility belt, but the only woman he was after was Lady Justice. Except for Alfred shipping him and Catwoman. I’m sorry, where was I?
Oh, right, Metal Men. Siskoid of the Blog Of Geekery goes over the various metal “robots” that appeared in the comic to see how well they matched their metal forms with their powers and personalities. Kind of like Silver & The Periodic Forces, the comic Jerzy Drozd did about an alien who summoned elemental beings to fight evil, except that was intentionally educational while Siskoid’s dive was in response to a letter to the editor about Metal Men being accidentally educational.
