John Henry Irons is one of the tritagonists of the Arrowverse television series Superman and Lois. At first, an enemy of Superman from Earth-Prime,, he later becomes his ally. The reason for his initial hatred of Clark is because John comes from another Earth where his version of Superman used his powers for evil and took over the world. He was married to his world's version of Lois Lane and the father of Natalie Lane Irons. Currently known as the Man of Steel, or simply, Steel.
