Colouring Book Theatre: The Six Million Dollar Man
It opens with Steve’s famous crash, I don’t know if this is an accurate depiction of how Steve’s ship looked, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen the pilot movie.
Despite plummetting to his death, Steve Austin is cool as a cucumber. Actually he looks kind of pleased.
The famous operating scene, what a delight this page would be to colour….
Rudy checks in on Steve, who is enjoying a drink from his chamber pot. Jeez, you’d think they’d draw Steve fighting robots or something….
Yawn, I can lift a lot…..
“How much can I save on my long distance?” A thrilling look into the day to day life of Oscar Goldman, frankly, I’d settle for a colouring book featuring Oscar Madison right now….
Finally some action, Steve is captured by Gavin McCloud!
BURP!I’m sure nothing else happens.Some Links of Interest:

i love the turtleneck steve is rocking on the cover there.
I’m thinking that it would be impossible to remake this show today with the same title, b/c today $6 mil probably gets Steve one bionic foot, max.
Great job with the comments on those action-packed pages. I’m sure the artist went on to a fulfilling career illustrating grade-school textbooks.
i’d love to see them remake this, with the exact same name of course, and a one-liner about how the Bush Administration never could accurately project what things cost.
“$6 Million? More like 3.2 Billion Dollar Man!”
In the picture where Steve is lifting the weight: “Why isn’t my bionic arming tearing itself from my human skeleton as I do this?”
I love this show, but the implausible physics just get to me these days.
That cover.
It looks like Steve is pressing the button that spins the wall around, revealing his bar, disco ball, and waterbed.
Go-go Gadget Orgy-Room!!
I found that exact coloring book in mint condition uncolored or damaged. Is it worth anything?
