*Nick Zano is joining the cast of the CWâs superhero drama series DCâS Legends of Tomorrow as a new series regular for Season 2. He will play Dr. Nate Heywood, a historian whose grandfather was Commander Steel, a member of the Justice Society of America.
In the comics, Nate becomes Steel/Citizen Steel, a former member of the Justice League of America. The producers of the CW series are being ambiguous whether Nate will walk in his grandfatherâs super heroic footsteps but, given the superhero nature of the show, that appears almost certain.*
I remember Citizen Steel was a character that was introduced in Geoff Johns run on JSA. Only thing I remember about him was his origin story. Poor guy had most of his family killed during a reunion by Nazi villains.
