2. Metallo

Look, who isn’t a fan of the idea of Superman fighting a Terminator? Like, that’s some primo comic-booking right there.

John Corben was, alternately, a journalist, a con man, a common crook, or a military man, depending on which reboot you’re going along with. Regardless, in every version, he got his heart ripped out and replaced with a kryptonite hunk. Also, he gets made a robot.

Important sidenote: Whenever I type the word robot, I pronounce it in my head as “ro-but”. This is canonical for my columns, and you need to know it.

Metallo’s first adventure ended with Lex Luthor realizing, “Hey, a chunk of kryptonite is way more valuable than the dumb robot man it’s currently stuck in.” And he stole Metallo’s heart. Metallo spent a while bouncing around the DC Universe, before he sold his soul to the devil (well, Neron, but same thing, really), and gained the ability to absorb other mechanical constructs into himself.
