Invincible Iron Man trailer gets to the (Iron)heart of Riri Williams
By Nick Tylwalk
Riri Williams is a self-made superhero, but that doesn’t mean she can’t use some advice from the original Iron Man.
Not many of us have had to fill the boots of a legend, and none of us have had to follow in the repulsor-powered footsteps of Iron Man. But Riri Williams is giving it her all in the pages of Invincible Iron Man right now, even though she’s taken on the moniker Ironheart for her heroic exploits.
She’s not fighting alone. One of the things fans (especially those who were introduced to Iron Man via the Marvel Cinematic Universe) associate with Iron Man armor is an AI companion to aid its wearer. Williams has one too, and it just so happens to be Tony Stark himself.
Confused? Watch this new Invincible Iron Man trailer from Marvel and you’ll learn the important stuff to dive into the current series:
Love those firing gauntlets by the way. Very Tranzor Z.
The current Williams-led Invincible Iron Man is only up to issue #3, so there’s still plenty of time to dive in and enjoy what writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Stefano Caselli are up to before it gets too far along. In fact you can grab #3 in the Marvel Digital Comics Shop or wherever you get your comics and see how she does against an honest to goodness Iron Man villain.
(Spoiler: not so hot.)
Just hang in there Riri. With Tony backing you up, even if it’s just in virtual form, you’ll do fine.
