Metal Men

[Charlie No-One]

I did a search and couldn't find anything, so I made a thread. I never read any Metal Men stuff but this sounds/looks cool. It is by Duncan Rouleau with ideas and concepts by Grant Morrison. 8 issue limited series...starts in August.

I'm not a big fan of Rouleau's art, but I'm really looking forward to this. I'll probably wait for the trade, though.

 

[Anubis]

I said I was gonna wait for the trade...but it's a light week, so I'll go ahead and grab it. I'm so F**king weak.

 

[HR-PUFF&STUFF]

I'm so F**king weak.

[Darthphere]

I'm kind of not so much really looking forward to it.

 

[yenaled]

I hope they play them for more than just lols.

Tin, Mercury, Platinum, Iron, Lead, Gold... and some other one. Although I think there used to be a Vanadium, but that was Doc himself. O something. I don't even know anymore.

The Metal Men were always pretty neat, though.

The new female is Copper... I think they should add Magnesium, Silver and Cobalt too.

I agree.

Genders?

 

[Kitsune]

I agree.

Genders?

At least two of them should be female, to even out the gender gap. I'd say Silver is female Magnesium would be female with a firey temper.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Plutonium possibly?

 

[The Question]

Plutonium possibly?

He was in 52. Or, at least, he was partially completed in 52. from what I can tell, he's a complete psycho, which is why the Doc keeps him deactivated.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Yeah, seeing how the Doc is somewhat psycho right now, or that he possibly activated him, I can see him housing him.

The Doc isn't psycho. He's just bi-polar and fairly eccentric.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Without the meds, he was actually HAPPY to construct a completed Plutonium Man.

 

[Anubis]

Titanium would be a good addition as well.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

I could see that.

If the art inside is the same as this cover, then I'm definitely going to love it. My only exposure to the Metal Men was 52, and I must say I'm definitely interested in this.

 

[Anubis]

I could see that.

I'd like to see a Legion era one made of that Metal that their rings are made of.

 

[Kitsune]

Titanium would be a good addition as well.

A little green would look be a nice contrast to the other Metal Men.

 

[SonOfCthulhu]

I like to give everything a fair shake, but this book was awful. They took out the best part about the Metal Men: their very consistent personalities. Yeah, Gold was still a strong Leader, but Tin, Mercury, Lead and Tina were all interchangeable. I looked forward to what the writer/artist would do with Copper, but who cares. The characters aren't being written as individuals, so she's just another robot.

Dropped.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

i knew it would suck.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I don't know about SonOfCthulhu's taste, but the fact that GAH hated it makes me love the first issue even more. I'm looking forward to what else Rouleau comes up with.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

more crapiness for you then.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Coming from you, that is high praise indeed.
