Ultra-Metallo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ultra-Metallo was an android developed by Nazi scientists to fight Super-Soldier in the Amalgam Comics world. He is a fusion of Ultron of Marvel Comics and Metallo of DC Comics. [1]
Its primary function was to attack and destroy the White House in Washington D.C., along with the then-president Franklin D. Roosevelt. Super-Soldier defeated Ultra-Metallo over the Atlantic Ocean, when it was discovered that Ultra-Metallo was trying to attract attention from the American forces by sinking Allied ships out at sea.
Later on, the Green Skull recovered Ultra-Metallo and found the Nazi machine to still be in working condition, and unleashed it on the White House. Super-Soldier fought it once again, and with the help of the Judgement League Avengers, Ultra-Metallo was destroyed.
Metallo was powered by a meteorite that landed along with an alien rocketship in 1938. While the corpse of the alien baby in the rocket was used for cellular samples, the meteorite was recovered by Green Skull and dubbed the Green-K, or "Kansas Lode" (As it landed in Kansas).
Samples of the meteorite proved to weaken Super Soldier, and the "K" radiation was shielded by Lead. The Kansas Lode was used to power Ultra-Metallo at the outbreak of war.
