Ferro Lad is a fictional character, a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the thirtieth century of the DC Universe. He is Andrew Nolan of Earth. He has the power to transform himself to living iron. He has a twin brother named Douglas who has the same power. Both twins have deformed faces as a side effect of the mutation that gave them their powers and so both wear iron masks. He first appeared in Adventure Comics #346 (July 1966), he joined at the same time as Princess Projectra, Karate Kid and Nemesis Kid.
Ferro Lad was only a Legionnaire for a short time when he was killed destroying the Sun-Eater with a bomb in Adventure Comics #353. His self-sacrifice to save the galaxy made him legendary, despite his short tenure as a Legionnaire.
In post-Zero Hour continuity he is known as Ferro and comes from 20th century Earth. For more details, see Ferro (comics).
It was incorrectly believed that Ferro Lad was one of the primary inspirations for Colossus of Marvel Comics' X-Men.[1]
- To note, #2 of Unlimited Access has The Legionaire ending up in The Days Of Future Past era. During a team up between them and the X-Men, Colossus and Ferro double team against a Sentinel.
