Osmium is the densest naturally-occurring stable element, nearly twice as dense as lead. It's difficult to work with in its pure form due to its hardness, brittleness, and high melting point.

Chemical Safety: Osmium Tetroxide

An acutely toxic, corrosive, oxidizer, osmium tetroxide is a pale yellow solid used for a few select applications. Within the field of materials science and engineering, this includes its use as a staining agent for both polymers and transmission electron microscopy (albeit primarily for organic and biological materials). Chronic exposure can damage the kidneys and liver while acute exposure to the vapors can damage the eyes. It is recommended to store the chemical at lower temperatures (~2-8C) in glass containers and only use under proper ventilation, such as in a fume hood. Safety goggles over glasses are often required to protect from the vapors. Corn oil can be used to deactivate osmium tetroxide solutions, however the waste is still considered hazardous and should be handled accordingly.

I don't think we ever see these characters after this issue, but I really want to see them reintroduced into modern comics. Dr. Will Magnus's Substitute Metal Men: Silver, Cobalt, Zinc, Osmium, Gallium and Iridium. I'm going to choose to believe these characters are still important parts of the metal men mythos. But I'd want to add Copper and Bismuth too. Copper because it's the one Metal of Antiquity that isn't represented on the team (as wikipedia taught me), and Bismuth because it's just such a cool looking Metal. Rainbow coloured and all those strange geometric shapes...it deserves to be in these books. But yeah, the back-up Metal Men should come back and be a thing. Like the Metal Men version of the Legion of Substitute Heroes. (Metal Men #31):
