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?
