La s\u00e9rie avait \u00e9t\u00e9 suspendue et, avec ce num\u00e9ro 45, d\u00e9butait une nouvelle vie sous l&rsquo;impulsion d&rsquo;un jeune artiste nomm\u00e9 Walt Simonson. Un nouvel \u00e2ge d&rsquo;or pour ce titre&#8230;<\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Vers la fin des ann\u00e9es 60, les Metal Men avaient fait partie de la m\u00eame charette que Wonder Woman et Teen Titans, \u00e0 savoir que DC avait d\u00e9cid\u00e9 d&rsquo;en faire un titre o\u00f9 les h\u00e9ros n&rsquo;utilisaient plus leurs super-pouvoirs et n&rsquo;apparaissaient qu&rsquo;en uniformes pratiquement civil (fouillez un peu dans les Oldies But Goodies de ce site, on y a parl\u00e9 r\u00e9cemment des Teen Titans de cette p\u00e9riode). Essentiellement, les robots nomm\u00e9s Metal Men se bornaient \u00e0 essayer de passer pour des humains (sans changer de forme ou utiliser leurs propri\u00e9t\u00e9s m\u00e9talliques), ce qui r\u00e9trospectivement est \u00e0 peu pr\u00e8s aussi int\u00e9ressant que si Optimus Prime s&rsquo;\u00e9tait amus\u00e9 \u00e0 se d\u00e9guiser en conducteur de bus plut\u00f4t qu&rsquo;en camion. Devenus en quelque sorte des agents tr\u00e8s sp\u00e9ciaux ils s&rsquo;\u00e9vertuaient \u00e0 essayer de lib\u00e9rer leur cr\u00e9ateur, le savant Doc Magnus, qui avait \u00e9t\u00e9 fait prisonnier d&rsquo;un pays de l&rsquo;Est (la Karnia). L\u00e0-bas, on lui avait lav\u00e9 le cerveau et il servait le r\u00e9gime en place en lui donnant ses nouvelles inventions. Sur la fin de cette p\u00e9riode, les Metal Men arrivait \u00e0 lib\u00e9rer le pauvre homme qui n&rsquo;avait plus toute sa t\u00eate et la s\u00e9rie (faute de ventes suffisantes) \u00e9tait suspendue sur cette sorte de \u00ab\u00a0happy end\u00a0\u00bb. Les Metal Men \u00e9taient tomb\u00e9s dans l&rsquo;oubli et on ne savait pas si leur cr\u00e9ateur retrouverait un jour ses esprits&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comicbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/metalmen45big.jpg?w=1140\" alt=\"\" hspace=\"3\" align=\"left\" \/>Mais en 1976, DC s&rsquo;essaya \u00e0 relancer plusieurs s\u00e9ries, parmi lesquelles (vous l&rsquo;aviez devin\u00e9) les Metal Men. Finies les histoires o\u00f9 les robots n&rsquo;usaient plus de leurs pouvoirs m\u00e9tamorphes. Ils \u00e9taient revenus \u00e0 leur formule super-h\u00e9ro\u00efque d&rsquo;antan. Gold, Plantinum, Iron, Lead, Tin et Mercury ne se d\u00e9guisaient plus en humains mais apparaissaient bien comme les automates color\u00e9s qu&rsquo;ils avaient \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 leurs d\u00e9buts. Bien loin de se cacher, ils faisaient m\u00eame des d\u00e9monstrations de leurs pouvoirs dans les universit\u00e9s. Mais quand on leur demandait ce qu&rsquo;il \u00e9tait advenu de leur inventeur, les robots retenaient avec peine leurs larmes. Magnus n&rsquo;avait toujours pas retrouv\u00e9 la raison et \u00e9tait encore hospitalis\u00e9, aux bons soins du gouvernement am\u00e9ricain. Steve Gerber s&rsquo;occupant du sc\u00e9nario de ce relaunch et ayant une affinit\u00e9 avec les personnages troubles, on pouvait s&rsquo;attendre \u00e0 ce que le bon docteur devienne impr\u00e9visible&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>D&rsquo;ailleurs, on retrouvait tr\u00e8s vite Magnus dans l&rsquo;institution qui s&rsquo;occupait de lui, l&rsquo;\u00e9tat d\u00e9cidant qu&rsquo;il serait sans doute bon pour sa sant\u00e9 mentale de travailler sur un nouveau projet. Magnus, sans trop savoir ce qu&rsquo;il faisait, se lan\u00e7ait alors dans la construction de son robot le plus puissant \u00e0 ce jour, le terrible Plutonium Man, aux propri\u00e9t\u00e9s radio-actives. Trop tard, les gens encadrant Magnus comprenaient qu&rsquo;ils s&rsquo;\u00e9taient fait avoir: l&rsquo;un d&rsquo;entre eux \u00e9tait l&rsquo;un des derniers espions de Karnia encore en activit\u00e9 et il avait manipul\u00e9 Magnus pour cr\u00e9er une ultime arme, une sorte de Metal Man du mal. L\u00e2ch\u00e9 dans la nature, Plutonium ne tardait pas de croiser le chemin de ses \u00ab\u00a0cousins\u00a0\u00bb, les autres cr\u00e9ations de Magnus, qui faisaient alors leur possible pour l&#8217;emp\u00eacher de nuire, m\u00eame s&rsquo;il fallait pour cel\u00e0 se sacrifier. Voyant ses \u00ab\u00a0enfants\u00a0\u00bb p\u00e9rir l&rsquo;un apr\u00e8s l&rsquo;autre en d\u00e9truisant Plutonium, Magnus sortait de son \u00e9tat second, relativement gu\u00e9rit. Heureusement pour les Metal Men, ils \u00e9taient facilement reconstructibles. D\u00e8s l&rsquo;\u00e9pisode suivant, Magnus les aurait remis \u00e0 neuf, d\u00e9but ainsi un nouveau run assez sympathique de la s\u00e9rie (d&rsquo;abord dessin\u00e9 par Simonson, donc, puis repris par la suite par Joe Staton). L&rsquo;ennui c&rsquo;est que les Metal Men n&rsquo;\u00e9taient pas les seuls qui pouvaient \u00eatre reconstruits et Plutonium Man reviendrait plusieurs fois par la suite menacer l&rsquo;\u00e9quipe de robots ou son cr\u00e9ateur, plantant du m\u00eame coup les graines de certains \u00e9v\u00e9nements vus dans \u00ab\u00a052\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n[<em>Xavier
