“Evil Is in the Eye of the Beholder”

In "Evil Is in the Eye of the Beholder," Doc Magnus—once a brilliant inventor now confined to a government mental facility—grapples with the aftermath of being brainwashed by Karnia’s dictator. Written by Steve Gerber and illustrated by Walt Simonson in a striking, unified artistic effort, this 1976 issue sees Magnus create the towering Plutonium Man, a machine fueled by his own corrupted thoughts of destruction and hatred toward the Metal Men. The cover, by Dick Giordano, captures the grim intensity of the moment.

Doc Magnus is receiving therapy in a government-operated mental facility after being brainwashed by the dictator of Karnia. Commissioned by the United States to build a robot capable of generating its own energy, he creates the giant Plutonium Man that is programmed with his own thoughts of, unfortunately, trample, raze, annihilate, and hatred of the Metal Men.
