Dr. Gilchrist (died late 2016), also known as Metallo, was a scientist working for Project Cadmus. He was later converted into a cyborg like John Corben with the mission to destroy the Kryptonians residing on Earth, only to be defeated by Superman and the Martian Manhunter.
Biography[]
Gilchrist was concerned with John Corben's new condition, but his superior was confident, namely in his ability to destroy Kryptonians. After failing to do so, the Doctor ordered to have Gilchrist converted as well.
Metallo defeated.
Later, Gilchrist terrorized Metropolis, destroying Krypton Park while Corben distracted Superman and Supergirl. Gilchrist later challenged Superman, who teamed up with Martian Manhunter and removed his "Kryptonian heart" after a hard battle, killing him.[1]
