Synopsis John Henry’s nephew, Tyke, had been abducted, and Steel tracked him while simultaneously confronting the mysterious man known as Chindi. It turned out that Chindi had been paid a bounty to get hold of Steel’s armor, but when it was revealed that Hazard was behind Tyke’s kidnapping, along with the abduction of several other children, Steel and Chindi became allies, freed the children, and took on Hazard’s super-powered crew. Steel defeated Hazard, but his victory had a price. Hazard had made Tyke a promise: a promise that he could walk again… a promise that, thanks to Steel, could never be fulfilled.
