History

  The niece of John Henry Irons (a.k.a. Steel III). Natasha is the daughter of John Henry's late brother Clay and used to live with her mother and extended family in Washington, DC. After a gang war in their neighborhood, Steel was forced to go public with his secret identity, which led to his family hiding through witness protection. Natasha decided to move with her uncle to Jersey, where she met a young man named Paul (whom she nicknamed "Boris"). The two became close friends. Still later, Natasha moved with John Henry to his factory called Steelworks in Metropolis. An advanced Studies intern, Natasha is currently aiding her uncle in his technological work (as well as helping out behind the scenes with Steel's and Superman's crimefighting from time to time). Recently, Natasha has been seen to use a version of the Steel armor herself, and has played the part of heroine in cooperation with fellow teen heroines Girl-13, and Cir-El, the new Supergirl.
