Episode 6: Ironheart Nerd vs Nerd

Episode Notes

She was never supposed to fly. But this week we're soaring the skies with the Iconic Ironheart--Chicago's own black teen girl supergenius and superhero!


To celebrate this month's release of Ironheart Volume 1 (now available wherever you get your books!!), we're discussing Riri Williams and the creative team behind her new solo series from Marvel. But first, we talk about the big MCU news coming out of San Diego and share our thoughts on Phase 4. Then we dive deep into Ironheart, outlining the people and places essential to who Riri is as a person and a superhero. We explore what drives our young hero and what makes her so instantly beloved. We also fangirl over writer Eve L. Ewing, who is truly moving with courage and making the path for Black girls everywhere. Finally, we share our hopes for Ironheart to join the MCU!
