Steel (1997)

02/26/21 • 79 min

Our Heroes take a timeout between miniseries to thoroughly enjoy 1997's Superman-adjacent classic, Steel. Hot off the heals of the Death of Superman comic run, DC decided to let music legend Quincy Jones produce a passion project starring Shaquille O'Neal, Judd Nelson, and Annabeth Gish in a wheelchair. Does Shaq have super powers in real life? Is this an unofficial Shaft movie? Why doesn't Judd Nelson play more creeps? We attempt to answer these questions and more, so sit back and enjoy!

Previous Episode

Powerless Part 3

Our Heroes bid a fond farewell to the underappreciated 2017 NBC sitcom Powerless by watching the final 4 episodes, including 3 that only ever aired in New Zealand. As the show continues to get better, the DC references go deeper and deeper. Even though the show got cancelled too soon, it clearly helped open the door for shows like the Harley Quinn animated series.

Next Episode

Human Target (1992) Part 1

Our Heroes find themselves stuck in a multiverse where soap/pop star Rick Springfield plays The Human Target, a covert operative turned bodyguard with a superhuman ability to get shot at. This short-lived ABC series adapts a DC back-up title that ran in the back of Superman and Batman stories, and it's clear to see why it didn't last.
