    Steel

    Character » Steel appears in 948 issues.

    Inspired by Superman, John Henry Irons mimicked his powers with technology. However, his greatest powers are his heart, mind and determination.

    Is it time for Steel to get a book?

    It's been awhile since he had his own title and we know DC loves putting out multiple books of a character/team and their satellite/family characters like he is to Superman. Not to mention the Superman universe is going to get more attention because of the movie. Now I myself have problems with the overflowing of family books but I think there is more than enough to set him apart from the rest. Of course I would want a design update from his prototype armor.

    What do you think? Is it time?

    Unless it says "Superman Presents: Steel" it will be cancelled quickly.

    I would love a good Steel comic. Problem is, it took them 21 issues to get a good writer on Superman, and it wasn't even in his main title. Think they'll put the best of the best on Steel?

    They could totally do a mini series, or a really well done one shot, though. Just gotta find someone that already has a good Steel story in mind. Can't just ask somebody to come up with one.

    He's only well-known for Shaquille O'Neal's second-worst attempt at acting. I can't see him ever getting a book.

    I'd take an ongoing or a miniseries, written by Sholly Fisch. His backup in Action Comics was great.

    @dernman: if he looks more like his animal man/swamp thing look then yes but the steel cords, cyborg look in action comics, no.
