@@stephennguyen6124 I did mention Gotham and that isn’t part of the CW. In addition, there’s also plot-twists in Tim Burton’s Batman (Thomas & Martha Wayne’s killer is the Joker), Batman Begins (Ducard is Ra’s Al Ghul), The Dark Knight Rises (Miranda Tate is Talia Al Ghul), Wonder Woman (Sir Patrick Morgan is Ares), Arkham Origins (Black Mask is the Joker), Gotham by Gaslight (Jack the Ripper is Jim Gordon), Batman Hush (Hush is the Riddler), etc.

This Superman durability when exposed to Kryptonite or Red Solar shit can sure take a fucking beating. He's actually really op if you think about all the scenes he got fuk with earlier when exposed
I didn’t suspect he’s really John Henry Irons, aka Steel. I should’ve suspected, specializes in tech and power suit. I thought he’s Lex Luthor because his hatred for Superman matches up to the actual Lex Luthor.
@@ILaist I always considered Steel the perfect rival to Lex because how similar they are. They're both bald, smart engineers, and they built their own Warsuits.
John Henry Irons comes from one Earth, Bizzaro comes from another. That's lot of Earth's still around in a post crisis world. We learn in S2 Finale that Supergirl and Flash don't exist for them so this can't be Earth prime. So what if it isn't a post-crisis world? What if Crisis happens in season 3 of this show which is why the multiverse is still such a thing right now? Maybe they can bring Anderson back like bringing back Hartley and Kenny Lee in a post-crisis world?
I don’t get it. How can John Henry Iron (aka Steel in the main dc comic) be Captain Luther? He’s a hero and a member of the Justice League in the main dc universe. He’s not a villain
@@WhovianOrWhatever Meh, I think they just wanted everybody to think this is black Lex Luthor from another universe. I don’t think they ever gave a solid reason why.
@@DavidNicholson101 but his daughter literally said the AI was set to Luthor and no one else knows him. The only person that really speaks to him is Lois and he gave her a fake name. But, again, in one of the recent episodes he changed the user profile from Lex Luthor.
@@WhovianOrWhatever Yeah, I saw that. I’m just wondering why he allowed the AI to call him Captain Luthor. I honestly thought it was him. Why would the AI even speak to him unless he really was Lex? It’s possible he hijacked the AI and reprogrammed it, but then again, why?
@@DavidNicholson101 he made the suit at the last minute and didn't want to make an AI from scratch. Its not that contrived in terms of plot conveniences and it just fits better that he's an alt Steel.
Pretty much, I would add a dash of Lex Luthor. Steel always gave me an impression of being Lex's opposite, the difference between is that John Henry had a loving family who taught him morality. Which led him to Superman's example. And when JHI in comics realized he was working for the bad guys, he did what Superman would have done. I think he's the ultimate refutation of Lex's bullshit, about how Superman will weaken humanity, how the species will become upon superpowered sky daddy giving us things. Superman inspires people to do better, be better.
while i love the twist that he is John Henry Irons aka Steel, i don't think it would be lazy per say if they kept to the idea most were thinking. it's not like all the arrowverse shows haven't faced dopplgangers of various other characters before. & because the guy we know for sure as lex luthor still has a story to be told on supergirl, if they had kept to this being another luthor instead of steel it still would have worked i think. as it would have been a new spin on an old rivalry between superman & luthor without snatching jon cryer's luthor away before his story on supergirl was done. regardless of how you may feel about supergirl btw as well, still doesn't change his story on that show isn't finished. so a new luthor was an interesting way to have him & be fresh rather than the same stuff we have seen over & over again.
@@ajscarecraft5560 but that's what i meant. if this was another version of luthor like we originally thought, it would have been a new spin as i said on an old rivalry.
Watching the series those days and as both a big Steel AND Superman, that was SUCH a big twist. The moment I saw Nat I realized this guy HAD to be related to John Henry Irons somehow. Its funny how they used the whole AI calling him Captain Luthor and Netflix Casting, to bamboozle us. I mean, bald black guy in a suit of armor mimicking Superman's powers? They literally gave us a description for Steel but made it look like it was someone.
