Natasha Irons

Natasha Irons is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by Louise Simonson and Chris Bastista, first appearing in Steel (vol. 2) #1 (February 1994). Since the character's creation, Natasha has since become a reccurring supporting character of both Superman and the original version of Steel within their respective comic book series.

The character is recurringly portrayed as a super-genius and the niece of John Henry Irons, a fellow genius within the Irons family. Although both mainstream continuities feature different backgrounds, both include her as the daughter of the criminal Crash (John Henry's brother), who is depicted as either a crime boss or criminal weapons dealer in advance technology. She works as an assistant alongside her uncle for Steelworks, a technology company based in Metropolis, and operates as the second Steel. She is often also depicted as a public superhero and a member of Team Superman while having served in several superhero-based teams. At times, Natasha has also adopted different codenames; following her transition into an artificial metahuman from Lex Luthor's Everyman Project, she originally used the Starlight codename but following a change in power set, she instead assumed the name Vaporlock.

The character has made several appearance in media, including Superman: The Animated Series where she is voiced by Cree Summer and is portrayed by Tayler Buck in the television series Superman & Lois, where she is renamed Natalie Lane Irons and is made the daughter of John and Lois Lane from an alternate universe.
