    Seems like a weird book for Steel to show up in, but I'm excited to see how it works out

    Steel seems out of place, but I'll give Lemire the benefit of the doubt. I love Irons, so it's always nice to seem him around.

    Yeah. I was surprised to see him pop up in the pages of Animal Man. Good thing it is a well-written book, so I have no fears of how he'll be portrayed here.

    Strange book for Steel to show up in. Animal Man is a dark fantasy book and Steel's more of a technological character. Still loving his pimped out War Machine like armour.

    I don't like that look, he looks like a grey Robotman with an S shield. I also have a hard time believing a man can fit into that suit, unless he's not actually in it in the story.

    Jeez, man. That suit is GIGANTIC!! No complaints here. This week looks good with Animal Man, Batwing, Action, Earth 2. and Phantom Stranger. I haven't bought this many books from a single publisher on a single Wednesday in a while.

    I really like Steel and I'm glad we'll see more of him but his costume looks really not in place and not that cool.But I really wanna see what will Jeff Lemire do with him.

    his suit finally looks powerful and tough,like he really is strong and durable as hell,not to mention it looks like it secret weapons stashed all over it.he calls it his war armor,i wonder when this story is over if in the present time he will be using something similar.

    I like this look a lot better than before, in AC. Some shielding is lacking, don't know why he would expose the pistons but not bad. I guess the size is to avoid too much of an ironman look, and Batwing already as that small package suit as well as the earth 2 para-troopers in Steppenwolf's country.

    @sethysquare:

    Ah Okay, Thanks! I like the design, but we already have, or hopefully still have, the Eradicator and Hank Henshaw, so hopefully he keeps this design but as a Mech suit and not a consciousness in a robot body, since Rot-World is going to be reset.
