I had never heard of Dr. Steel until these "enthusiastic" fans posted here shouting cries of foul play. I decided to check it out and decide for myself. While there are similarities, they are only superficial. Musically and story-wise, they are quite different. I enjoyed Dr. Horrible. Dr. Steel could have been interesting, but sadly, any chance of my actually liking him was dashed by the utter rudness of his fans. Guys, what you're doing isn't cool. It just makes you look bad.
too bad you judge artists by their fans. That would rule out me liking almost anyone. I honestly couldn't sit through the first Dr. Horrible segment due to the terrible sappy lame music and bad plot. I tried really hard, because I like Wheaton...but it sucked. Dr. Steel has excellent industrial/techno music- a totally different thing...and isn't a lame lovesick moron. Don't let the idiocy of fanboys ruin Dr. Steel- his website is hilarious!
I thought Horrible was ok. I guess you got attacked by some of the more Emotional fans. When I had commented in a forum about act 2, I was contacted by a "Toy Soldier". She didn't bash me for what I had said, she just said if I liked Horrible, then I should Try Dr. Steel. I went to the link she gave me, And I really liked it.
It sucks that some of the "soldiers" are being nasty about it. But the ones I came into contact with were very positive about Dr. Horrible. They need to all team up!
Agreed on all counts! I love Dr. Horrible, and when it first came out, I was directed to Dr. Steel by another fan. They're both wonderful, and, honestly, while I see the similarities, I think that the parallels are only superficial. Similar name, similar (standard mad scientist issue)coat. Totally different story and goals.
Come together! It's time to team up! Consider the sheer awesomeness of a Horrible/Steel partnership, a revolution! Musical theatre + techno + nifty goggles = brilliance, and it doesn't take an evil genius to work it out.
Oh Joss, you've done it again! This is so awesomely funny, it's a shame it's not a full on movie. Now that the Joss flag has been waved, I must say something about the "Toy Soldiers" who have posted. FOR SHAME! The sad thing I was hoping this was just a few people, but the fact it's a mission? Awful and in poor taste. It's a sad day to be a Toy Soldier when it's now a mission to spam and troll a great and funny clip. Dr. Steel, I thought better of you.

THIS VIDEO MADE ME YAWN. I think I lost a good thousand braincells by watching this shit.CHEAP, TRASHY, LAME RIP OFF OF DOCTOR STEEL. This is an insult to geniuses around the world who actually come up with their own brilliant ideas. This really is horrible. At least you got the name correct
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The difference is that Dr Steel didn't call himself Pinky and Dr Brain. And all you have to do is look at the title of Dr Horrible's Sing-along and compare it to Dr Steel's Read-along. Hmm bit of a conincidence don't you think
BTW: There is no "Dr Brain". And you got it right, the name is "Dr Horrible" and not "Dr Steel".
If you are just accusing the title "Sing-along" (what a uncommon phrase) of the show to be a rip-off, you claims are very very empty ...
And I did some research on the "read-along" -- funny thing was that Google showed your comment at first. Furthermore, that read-along is just a CD -- not a videoblog.
So you accuse the show of being a copy. Then please show me a song of Dr Steel that Dr Horrible covers without giving proper credits and we can talk again.

Doctor Horrible douchebag's video blogs stars a 30+ mad scientist who sings and wants to take over the world invites fans to spread the word, offers propaganda-style banners and promises a DVD release later
...propaganda-inspired banners, shiny gloves, goggles and an "Ask Dr. Horrible" segment - not unlike these "Ask Doctor Steel" videos at all?
RIP OFF. RIP OFF and nothing more. Have a nice life, watching & defending a rip offs

Doctor Steel's combined vintage war propaganda,catchy tunes and an image of an asylum escapee plotting away in a secret lab, seeking to improve Earth with toys & total world domination.his website's pulled together an entire army of fans called Toy Soldiers, who organize events, distributing various Dr. Steel propaganda.
Rip-off artist explains this whole thing. Doogie Howser? Honestly This travesty will not be withstood. They have stolen the ideas as Wailele920 and many others have said before myself. He must be Abolished before he can cause any further damage to Dr. Steel's name. This is a mockery of all we have worked so hard to achieve. As a loyal Toy Solder I will not stand by as this is done to the Good Doctor. ALL HAIL DR.STEEL! Soldiers! Salute the Good Doctor and spread his glory!!

So Dr Steel has invented the whole I-pretend-being-a-bad-ass-and-wannabe-ruler-of-the-world-thing? Ah come on!
The Pinky and the Brain were first! They've been around since 1995!
BTW: Dr Steel does make astounding music, but back the hell off.
