1 | * AudienceAlienatingEra: It's not a good idea to mention "[[CanonDiscontinuity Veridium]]" to most Metal Men fans. |
2 | * HilariousInHindsight: One letters page for an early Metal Men story printed a letter suggesting that Doc Magnus become a Metal Man himself. Some thirty years or so later, that fan would get his wish. |
3 | * TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: In the Silver Age, Tin built a girlfriend that became the [[SixthRanger seventh member of the team]]. This could have been an interesting way to shake up the pre-existing dynamics. However, she didn't get to do much. In fact, she was never even [[NoNameGiven given a name]] (although Tin would call her "Beautiful" which became a FanNickname). Later on, Copper got similar treatment. |
4 | %%* ValuesDissonance: |
5 | %%** In addition, some of Doc Magnus' treatment of Platinum in the Silver Age comics could off as abusive to modern viewers. |
6 | %%** Metal Men once fought against Doctor Yes, who was an amalgam of offensive Asian stereotypes. |
