The days that followed were a blur of plans, research, and training. Jake and Lucy spent hours in the library, poring over old reports, villain dossiers, and news clippings about Rex Steel and his associates. What they learned only added to the weight of their mission.

Rex Steel wasn't just some relic of the past. He had been experimenting with metals, with alloys stronger than anything known to man. The serum Jake had accidentally taken was the product of years of research, but it was incomplete. They discovered that the serum could be used to forge weapons, armor... or transform someone into a living weapon.

And that, they realized, was exactly what Jake had become.

As Jake learned more about his abilities, Lucy taught him how to control them. Slowly but surely, he began to understand the limitations of his new power and how to use it more effectively. But there was still one question hanging over him like a dark cloud: What would happen when Rex Steel—or any other villain—came for him again?

One thing was certain: Jake could no longer hide.
