Warning: Spoilers for Superman & Lois season 2, episode 14 below!
Superman & Lois might have set up a major change for John Henry Irons heading into season 3. After unfortunately numerous episode delays for Superman & Lois season 2, the season is set to wrap up on Tuesday, June 28, and the stakes could not be higher. Not only has Ally Allston (Rya Kihlstedt) begun merging Earth Prime with the Bizarro World, but Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) is unable to put a stop to her plan after the villainess drained his powers from him.
Clark Kent's family and friends have been doing everything possible to help on both restoring Clark's powers and stopping Ally, with John Henry Irons (Wolé Parks) even flying into space in his technologically-enhanced suit to prevent Ally's plan. Unfortunately, John was unable to stop Ally, with the cult leader-turned-supervillainess sending a bolt of energy through his suit leaving it damaged and John adrift in the space between the two universes. With this, Superman & Lois might have just set up John donning his comic book-accurate Steel suit.

After the damage inflicted on the suit by Ally as the energy-absorbing Parasite, the first priority is simply getting John back to Earth-Prime. With his suit damaged and its communication equipment de-activated, much to the worry of John's daughter Natalie (Tayler Buck), repairing it and making it durable enough to withstand such attacks from Ally will be the next step for him. This could lead John to also adjust his suit further, adding the red cape and S-shield from his comic book origins, with John fully becoming Steel at last.
