Synopsis

Having alloyed themselves together into one giant Metal Man, during a previous adventure, Doctor Will Magnus is now left with the task of separating his Metal Men. When Magnus, once more, rebuffs Platinum's amorous advances towards him, Platinum drags the alloyed Metal Man away in a huff.
