Character Bio - When small time con-man John Corben was killed in an accidental car crash, Professor Emmet Vale happened to be at the scene and procured John's body. Professor Vale, who was an expert in robotics, transplanted Corben's brain into an Android body that Vale had created. This new mechanical body was powered by a two pound chunk of Kryptonite, which gave the android body life and brought John Corben back to life... in a way. Professor Vale instructed the newly created Metallo to destroy Superman, as Vale believed that Superman was the first of a wave of alien invaders that intended to rule Earth. However, Metallo turned on Vale and snapped his neck. He then joined the criminal underground and started pulling heists with criminals like Grodd, Joker, Parasite, and even taking jobs from Lex Luthor. Inevitably, Superman ended up squaring off with Metallo in spite of Professor Vale's instructions, and Metallo learned just how useful his Kryptonite Heart was against the Man of Steel. Even though his Kryptonite Heart is a powerful weapon, when it is exposed, it also leaves Metallo vulnerable and slightly weakened.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

• Q - Is the Glyph of Kryptonite: Green Kryptonite still "equipped" to Metallo when it is face down? And when the glyph is face down, is the glyph still affecting the game?
  A - Yes of course. When an Equipment Glyph is on a figures card, it is always equipped. So He could not equip other glyphs while the Green Kryptonite is on his card. And no. According to official rules, glyphs are only active and their powers are only taking place when they are Power-Side up.
