John Corben was a mercenary and hitman who became the cyborg Metallo. After being exposed to a rare disease, Luthor helped Corben, and in exchange for his discretion, offered him a way to avoid death; LexCorp scientists would transfer his mind into an indestructible android body made of metallo, possessing strength equal to Superman's and powered by a Kryptonite heart. Feeling he had nothing to lose, Corben agreed. Metallo is easily angry, sadistic, and will do anything to kill Superman.
