Metal Men #9

In "The Elements of Surprise," the Metal Men take a bold step forward—defending themselves from Chemo without Dr. Magnus’s guidance, proving their growing independence. Meanwhile, the Nth Metal Man faces a chilling warning from the Phantom Stranger, who urges him to return to the Dark Multiverse he once fled. Written by Dan DiDio and illustrated by Shane Davis, with colors by Jason Wright and letters by Travis Lanham, this 2020 issue delivers a tense, character-driven chapter in the series—its cover by Shane Davis capturing the moment’s gravity.
