No, Gail Simone's run.
She went into an underground meta fighting arena alongside Black Canary. This Ivo-android was there and tough enough to take some punches from her- so she turned on the juice for awhile and reduced it to literal ash.
753forge knew about that weakness because of his power. I half-remember some shit about that nimrod having been rebuilt with lower quality parts form the present and that being the trick to defeat him. he self-repaired using leftover forge robots or something? did that happen? at all?
The body was made by Forge under duress, and Forge installed a secret override to gain control over it. However when the New X-men attacked it, it overroad the override and took control again.
They managed to defeat it by triggering it's time unit and sending it into the past, which turned out to mean it was *the* original Nimrod from the original story.
lasso is supposed to not work on robots as anything other than a strong rope right?
Unbreakable rope that's occasionally used as a cutting tool, yes.
