I don’t know why but I would like it to be revealed that Metallak is the Sentinel from the comic book Sentinel.

Denham ran a sideshow at a carnival and found Metallak at the beach. For years he showed Metallak off, until he hired Browning to fix Metallak. When it remembered its true programming it slew Denham because Denham was a mutant with persuasive powers.

--X-Men Unlimited I#33/2

Browning was a mechanic hired by Denham to fix Metallak. He fixed Metallak too well, and once Metallak remembered its true programming it killed Browning for being a mutant with the an affinity for non-organic devices.
