Though the attacks had been great, Joker had left off one thing from his mind.

The entire time they were happening, Metal Man did not waste his time feeling pain (although he did take much damage), but rather plotting.

As he was floating into outer space, he had managed to concoct a very elaborate and evil plan. Indeed, sending him into outer space allowed him liberties that no sane person would have knowingly bestowed on the known serial killer of a bounty hunter.

His arms tied together, his armor hardened with the joints stuck together, electricity and magnetism raking all his joints, it would seem as if he had been defeated; indeed, no normal person could withstand such punishment.

Of course, that was the thing. His hands, the things keeping the knot together, were entirely made of metal. His arms, not so much, but he would be able to make them usable soon.

The man saw the planet and the sun, and the nearby solar system from his vantage point. His hands silently popped free and he untied his arm stubs, grimacing a little from the pain as he used his armor as a splint. His joints cracked free, losing some mobility in the process.

Mathematical equations began to flood his visor as he calculated the momentum and gravity of the area. One thing he had been doing, unbenownst to his foe, was storing up energy; his systems had concealed capacitors which he made sure to keep hidden. This energy was currently at full power, due to the constant lightning and other energies which had been hitting his armor.

He clicked his hands back onto his arms, shuddering a little as he broke all his joints free, bits of melted metal floating into space. He finished his calculations, seeing nearby planetoids that would do. He realized his own ability to push things was minor--but there was a whole string of planetoids to play with all the way out here, and a large magnetized object with him at that.

He precisely adjusted the velocity of the magnetized bolder using his boot jets as thrust, setting into motion a kind of gigantic domino puzzle. There, in the immense black beauty of space, the tiny Metal Man and the boulder wove through countless floating objects, sling-shotting across their gravitational pulls until they hit quite high velocities. Fast enough to destroy normal men, but Metal Man's armor still had immense inertial dampening.

Metal Man pulled back when he hit his limit, pushing the last of the energy he had into the boulder's magnetic field. The field was now quite insane, and it was slingshotting into a field of magnetic-sensitive asteroids quite fast.

The man floated into perspective of the planet, watching... watching.

The boulder hurtled through the asteroid field, picking up more and more rocks, which in turn slingshotted around some more planets. It was one specific target Metal Man had--a massive, metallic hunk of rock... one large enough to destroy the planet Joker was on!!!

...

The gigantic rock began to slowly move as the massive magnetic rock field flew around it and towards the already heavily damaged planet the vampire Lord had been on.

It was going to be a true Armageddon this time;

The Joker would be able to see the small rocks re-entering the atmosphere by now. It would seem trivial--even like his first attacks.

But then something different occurred--there was a mighty CRASH, and the entire planet shuddered. The gigantic rock had flown at the back of the planet, crushing entire continents with its immense size. It had also been magnetized, causing it to rip all other magnetic-sensitive ores out of the planet.

The Joker might have had half a mind to leave, but it was too late. Rocks flew from the ground and into the air as the gravity of the entire mass was disrupted by the magnetic field. Even worse, the sun was getting bigger--he had pushed the entire planet at the sun with that blow!

Joker was now between a rock and a hard place... and by hard place, I mean the sun.

Metal Man's evil laughter echoed inside his helmet, and, telepathically, across the cosmos.

"You tried to destroy me... but you made your worst mistake yet by granting me access to my friend--the electromagnetic field! If you do survive... come forth and fight me on XCV-11!!! HA HA HA HA HAAAAA!"

The evil words would be the last heard by the world Joker was on, as it and the gigantic rock which hit it would be plunged into the sun and melted into nothing.

It would be somewhat nontrivial for the Joker to escape, but still possible. The Metal Man knew this, having only wanted to show his foe never to give the Metal Man a magnetic boulder and lightning to play with ever again. That said, Metal Man touched down on a barren beach-planet by the ocean.

He waited for his foe impatiently, staring at his wrist--even though the LCD on it had been crushed and melted long ago.

"What is taking him so long?" He coughed some blood. He looked a bit squished now.
