From the Publisher:

Adventurer Rex Mason would do almost anything for the right price, but he ended up paying with his own humanity for stealing the legendary Orb of Ra for millionaire industrialist Simon Stagg.

The mysterious relic transformed Rex into a freakish “element” man, with the ability to transform his body into hundreds of different substances. Calling himself Metamorpho, Rex considered his life cursed and sough a way to reverse the Orb’s power.

Along the way, Stagg would use Metamorpho’s unique skills for his own purposes and the Element Man would go along since it meant more time with Stagg’s gorgeous daughter Sapphire.

These lighthearted, energetic stories from DC’s Silver Age are a cult classic. Here, for the first time, are all of Metamorpho’s adventures, including his premiere appearances in The Brave and the Bold and all 17 issues of his own title. PLUS: see him team up with the Metal Men, Batman, and the Justice League of America in three bonus stories.

Written by Silver Age legend Bob Haney, the stories were illustrated by Ramona Fradon, Sal Trapani, Joe Orlando, Mike Sekowsky, and others.
