Metal Men

The Metal Men are a team of robotic super-heroes created by the scientist and inventor Will Magnus.

Each "Metal Man" is named after the element they are made from and their personalities reference properties of those elements. The group is usually employed to deal with emergencies within the scientific community; ranging from biohazard containment and cleaning to locating and fighting rampant science experiments.

The group's core membership includes Gold, Iron, Lead, Mercury, Platinum and Tin, but other "Metal Men" have been created and joined at various points in the team's history; including Nameless, Silver, Cobalt, Zinc, Osmium, Gallium, Iridia, Agantha and Copper.
