The Art of Walter Simonson #[nn]

In "Chaos Among the Gods," Herc confronts the truth behind his long imprisonment, uncovering a revelation that reshapes everything he thought he knew about his past. As the mystery deepens, the identity of the Anti-Ares is finally revealed, setting off a chain of consequences that test the limits of faith, power, and destiny.

In "Evil Is in the Eye of the Beholder," former scientist Doc Magnus, still reeling from a brainwashing ordeal under Karnia’s dictator, finds himself confined in a government mental facility. Struggling to reclaim his mind, he’s coerced into building a massive, self-sustaining robot—Plutonium Man—designed to destroy, only to discover too late that the machine is a mirror of his own fractured thoughts, programmed with rage and annihilation.

In "The Chemo Conspiracy," the Metal Men journey to Venice on a mission to recover hidden blackmail money that Doc had stashed during a period of madness—though he now suffers from amnesia and can’t recall entrusting Chemo with its protection. As the team navigates the city’s winding canals and shifting loyalties, they must confront the unexpected challenge of a guardian who remembers far more than they do.
