John making the switch from antagonist to quasi-ally in this week’s S&L leaves me hopeful we’ll see him become the traditional Steel by the end of the season. Would lose it if he shows up wearing the traditional mech suit, we still haven’t seen that in love action!

I'd love to see entire S&L episodes dedicated to showing Irons wandering this Earth and learning about it as compared to his Earth. Makes for some pretty cool character development, and a classic storytelling device. Shoot, I'd enjoy a comic based on this premise.

I’d love a straight up spinoff show honestly, something in the tone of that Bill Bixby Hulk show where it’s just John traveling the Earth, looking into what happened to his counterpart and trying to find a way back home while helping people along the way.

So I forgot that Irons faking his death to get away from the company he designed weapons for was his origin in the comics!
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stee...n_Henry_Irons)Doctor John Henry Irons was a brilliant weapons engineer for AmerTek Industries, who eventually became disgusted when the BG-60, a powerful man-portable energy cannon he had designed, fell into the wrong hands and was used to kill innocent people.[4] As the company would have coerced him to retain his services, John faked his death, and eventually came to Metropolis.
Now I think there’s a much greater chance that if they do plan to kill off the Elseworld Irons they will still bring in an Earth Prime John to replace him.

I'm thinking he's set up for a spinoff. Essentially his time on S and L is one long origin story. Eventually he'll get a spinoff on his own Earth or he'll be stuck on this one. He'll probably assume his alternate version's life.
