HISTORY
Metron is the god of reason and intellect in the pantheon of New Gods of New Genesis and Apokolips. He lives to understand all that is, and has little tolerance for those whose intellect is smaller than his (which basically means any mortal). Recently, he entrusted the immense power of the Worlogog (which gives the bearer control over time itself) to an android called Hourman, only to see the same give up most of that power in order to become more 'human.' Yet more disappointment.
