So I'm five minutes into Ironheart and I just need to say it.

I have been a known Iron Heart hater. Because the character frankly sucks. She has always sucked. She has no fans. She's just such a nothing character.

But five minutes in, they actually make her so much more interesting of a character already. Why? Because she is righteous but horribly flawed, misguided, and the second she tries to talk about how great she is, there's people to tell her that no, she's not as great as she thinks and has learning to do.

This felt like such a direct response to most complaints about the character, in that she's the perfect genius from the jump and always smugly proud of her accomplishments without much push back or strife.

It really was this easy to make Riri Williams interesting, but it always felt like nobody ever wanted to make her flawed. So I'm already far more optimistic and excited for the rest of the show as a result.
