Man of STEEL: John Henry Irons Appreciation 2021

[Vordan]

And they’re finally on the same side in S&L! Wonder if John reconnecting with this world’s version of his family will be an ongoing plotline for him? His sister was in this week’s episode, curious if they’ll bring in Natasha as well:

From an interview with Alex Garfin:

“John Henry Irons is one of my favorite characters on the show,” he says. “His entire redemption arc has been very interesting. So anything that brings him closer into the fold, I’m all for.”

Yep!!

Thought this was neat, Bogdanovic sent this to Wole after he learned who Wole was really playing:

Damn that is amazing

The AI in S&L is really growing on me, I’d like to see her added to comic John’s suit. Something like Master Chief and Cortana would be cool.

Also I love that Clark entrusted Irons with the failsafe for him in S&L, I would like to see it made clear that Irons, like Batman, is one of the people Clark trusts to take him down if need be and has given him Kryptonite to do so.

I agree with your thoughts, just need a S shield on his chest

I'd never seen a Neal Adams Steel, but goddamn that looks great.

I miss when John used to be prominent in Superman comics. He's always MIA now.

Here's to hoping S&L generates some interest and he gets a mini or ongoing announced soon.

Yeah it’s frustrating. Natasha is getting used, which is nice, but if I’m honest I wish it was John who was going with Clark to Warworld. The Metropolis backups where he’s appeared have not been very good. And with WB pushing black Superman variants in film and TV, I’m worried that Steel will be banished to Limbo. I wouldn’t care normally but I wish MAWS was just using Steel instead of turning Jimmy black, he could fulfill the need for representation in a cool way. Being in a cartoon again would introduce him to kids which is important.

Guess we’ll just have to hope he continues to be used well on S&L, he’s going to be in S2 since Wole has said he’ll be coming back already, and that DC will give him a mini or something. I’d buy anything they’d put out with him in a major role, DC just needs to give me something.

A 52 Omnibus is coming in 2022! Definitely getting this, Steel’s storyline is one of the best parts of the whole book: https://www.edelweiss.plus/#catalogID=4610984&page=1

Irons kicked ass in this week’s episode of S&L, reminded me of this (without the gore)
