Hi all...back in the 70s or 80s there was a tv movie about a guy in a wheelchair I think and he creates this suit and ends up becoming a character called Exo-man or something like that...Ring a bell??

Sounds like Mantis from 94.
You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

Yes, Exo-Man starring David Ackroyd.
I enjoyed Mantis.

This started making the rounds when people started putting together 70s Avengers reels. Exo Man stood in as a 70s, live-action Iron Man

Mantis was played by Carl Lumbly, the voice of Martian Manhunter on Justice League and Justice League Unlimited. He also gave a great performance as Isiah Bradley in Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

So I just watched this movie today for the first time in years...And the more I look at the suit, the more it reminds me a little of some kind of get up they made for Super Joe years ago.
