|intro = A "black mask" wielding alien-made gloves who carried out many jobs, with mixed success, before falling prey to the [[Kiefer Square]] killer.
|history = Maxie Costello, a former boxer with a knack for tinkering, turned criminal after discovering a pair of alien golden gloves worn by a skeleton in a crashed spaceship. 
But, like most of the other residents in the Kiefer Square area, every time he got a hold of some money, almost all of it went back into his criminal endeavors, whether it be for testing or more sophisticated equipment. He once bought a blimp, that he converted into a submarine, only to have to destroy it and fake his death, after the [[Street Angel]] was tracking him.
After getting killed the by the blask mask killer in 1998, his daughter took his gloves and became the new [[Goldenglove II|Goldenglove]] for a time.
|powers =
|equipment = His gloves gave their wearer super-strength, and possible other powers that his daughter discovered upon her acquiring the gloves.

|intro = A patriotic and football themed hero of the World War II era and after with his partner [[Slugger|Slugger the Junior Dynamo]]. He was transformed by his scientist uncle's experiments from a football star to super-heroic levels of strength, endurance and athleticism.

|speculations =There is conflicting information about the All-American. One report has him being killed by a sniper's bullet in the Korean War. While [[Elliot Mills]] mentions that the All-American along with the [[Lamplighter]] had just retired in 1959. 
That suggests the possibility that someone else, possibly a grown-up Slugger, took over the costume for several years after Appleton was killed. 

There also could be some link between the All-American, Slugger, [[Commando K]]/Commando K Project and U.S. Government involvement which would show how all these are related, if at all besides what has already been established.

|history =

Carl "Carlie" Donewicz was a young boy growing up in the Kiefer Square section of Astro City when he started to run with gangs. You had to in that part of town, or you ended up in a world of hurt. Carl wanted out, and studied as best he could in order to make it out, but it didn't work.

After a fight in which he killed a boy, Carl went a little crazy, committing an assortment of violent crimes. At this point, he first heard about Dr. Ganss, who could turn people into superhumans, and managed to get an interview. After being told he was acceptable, Carl was placed in a tank, and emerged as the "Steel-jacketed Man." Trying to pay back Ganss (and Donnelly Ferguson, who had gotten him the appointment in the first place), Carl entered into the world of the "black masks" (a.k.a. "super villains").

Although he had some moderate success, Carl ended up in and out of prison, and spent a good twenty years in Biro Island Correctional Facility, finally being released around the end of the millennium. Upon release, he vowed to stay out of jail and go straight, which proved to be difficult due to his reputation and distinctive likeness.

|powers =

Every inch of Steeljack's skin and even hair is made of an incredibly resiliant variety of steel; even by super-being standards, he is highly durable. Like regular human skin, this steel skin does regenerate from injury. Furthermore, Steeljack is super-strong.
