Overview

Natasha Irons, also known as Steel, is a brilliant and courageous superhero in the DC Universe. Niece of the legendary John Henry Irons (the original Steel), Natasha inherited not only his genius intellect but also his unwavering commitment to justice. Her journey has been marked by technological innovation, self-discovery, and the constant struggle to live up to a powerful legacy while forging her own heroic identity.
Main Milestones
Early Aptitude and Family Influence
Early Childhood
Natasha demonstrates exceptional intelligence from a young age, showing a natural affinity for engineering and technology. Growing up in the orbit of her uncle, John Henry Irons, she is exposed to his work and the power of technology to help others. These early experiences instill in her a strong sense of social responsibility and a desire to use her talents for good.
Developing Technological Prowess
Teenage Years
As a teenager, Natasha begins working alongside her uncle, assisting him in his workshop. Her skill with technology rapidly develops. While she enjoys working with John Henry, she also begins craving opportunities to strike out on her own.
Becoming Steel (First Iteration)
Early Adulthood
Inspired by her uncle's heroism and recognizing the need for another protector, Natasha develops her own version of the Steel armor. While less bulky and powerful than John Henry's, her suit is agile and equipped with advanced technology reflecting her unique skill set. She initially operates in the shadows, honing her skills and testing her limits.
Stepping into the Light
Post-Superman's Death & Return
Following the death and subsequent return of Superman, Natasha becomes more publicly active as Steel. The events inspire her to fully embrace her role as a superhero and protector, solidifying her identity and purpose.
Team Affiliations & Independence
2000s
Natasha increasingly works with other heroes, sometimes as part of organized teams, other times as a solo agent lending assistance where needed. During this period, she balances team work with her desire to stay independent and true to her own ideals.
Reimagined Origin & Abilities
New 52 Era
The New 52 reboot altered Natasha's history and powers. Here, she worked in the Science Police, utilizing a hardsuit that allowed her to generate energy constructs. This version presented a more direct and formalized integration with established law enforcement, highlighting her dedication to justice within a structured framework.
Return to Core Principles
DC Rebirth Era
With the advent of DC Rebirth, Natasha's character was partly restored to her pre-New 52 origins, but with added nuance. Her core technological genius and heroic spirit remain intact, showcasing her willingness to protect the innocent. The emphasis is placed on her lineage and her constant strive to uphold the legacy and name of Steel.
