And if I was just a tad more evil I'd one a lead box filled with an array of
Green, Red, blue and Gold Kryptonite.

Here is a list of fantasy metals
Many would make great softies:

_and_atomic_particles
Or

for instance:
Element 152    
DC Comics    
Element created by Mon-El by combining gold, silver and iron. It has
anti-gravity properties and was eventually used in rings, allowing members
of the Legion of Super-Heroes to fly. Arm Fall Off Boy is thought to have
gained his superpowers through mishandling this element.
