Strange Comic Book Cameos – Metal Men #12 (February-March 1965)

Hey kids! Remember the time when the Beatles met the Metal Men? If not, then witness the historic encounter between the two groups for yourself in the pages of Metal Men #12 (February-March 1965) by Robert Kanigher, Ross Andru, and Mike Esposito.

Don’t finish that sentence, Tin, or you’ll probably end up having to pay royalties.

Robosexuality – Part 12

Being physically affectionate presents a bit of a challenge if you’re made of metal.

Way to kill the mood, Doc Magnus.

Today’s romantic buzzkill has been brought to you by Metal Men #8 (June-July 1964) by Robert Kanigher, Ross Andru, and Mike Esposito.

Robosexuality – Part 3

You know, my taste doesn’t normally run to machines, but I must admit that this kind of view would go a long way towards changing my mind:

Oh great. A woman who's both steamy AND frigid at the same time.

To paraphrase an old Internet saying, we’re all robosexual for Platinum.

This scene raises a good question, though. (And no, it’s not “Is Will Magnus gay?” We all know the answer to that one.) What exactly are these superhuman abilities that Tina is referring to? Are they bondage-related, perhaps?

Yeesh...get a room, you two.

Robosexuality – Part 2

If the way to a man’s heart is really through his stomach, Platinum‘s got a lot of cooking left to do…

Even if tofu turkey's on the menu...how can you resist that smile?
