It works about as well as Obi-wan Kenobi changing his name to Ben Kenobi so Darth Vader won't find him. Who said fiction needs to be based in reality? Or even common sense?

In alex Ross' miniseries Justice, the protagonists don armor for their confrontation with the Legion of Doom. Which characters were wearing members of the Metal Men for armor?

Good question. I know Flash, Superman, and Captain Marvel were. And two of the Metal Men were holding the shapes of Green Arrow and Black Canary to keep the villains from noticing those two had left. I'm not sure who else might have been wearing a Metal Man.

Pretty sure Plastic Man was, too.

Noone's got it right yet (though some of you have parts of the group correct). As a hint, one of the heroes who wore a member of the Metal Men hasn't been mentioned yet.

Orin's closest, as it stands.

You've got one who is incorrect and you're missing two. So close!

Flash, Captain Marvel, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Martian Manhunter, Zatanna, the Atom and Aquaman.

I've been counting Superman as one you can either include or leave off your answers. I'll admit, the whole fight scene is hard to follow, but everyone is forgetting two members who wore Metal Men. Oh, and your 2nd try was closer than the most recent. Actually, Orin's guess was really close too, he just forgot the magic two.

Flash, Superman, Captain Marvel, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Aquaman, The Atom, Plastic Man.

Flash was definitely wearing one, 'cause no other suit of armor would be able to move with him without breaking.

Same with Plastic Man.

Green Arrow and Black Canary, so they could disappear without being noticed.

Superman and Captain Marvel, with the design of the armor making it look like each one was actually the other.

Red Tornado maybe? Either him or Green Lantern I think. I can't remember where Hal's armor came from.

It's Green Lantern, and I'll take it. Green Lantern wore Iron to hide the fact that he was using blue kryptonite to make his yellow power ring look green.

Thread is yours, Orin.

Neat. GL's armor really didn't look like a Metal Man, so that's why I didn't think it was him.

New question - What are the real names of three DC characters who have gone by the nom de guerre of Manhunter?

Paul Kirk, Mark Shaw, Kate Spencer
