It’s been a minute since an Ironheart series was announced, four years to be exact. And now, three years after we first met Riri Williams, aka Ironheart (Dominique Thorne), in 2022’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, series creator and head writer Chinaka Hodge (Snowpiercer) gives the young genius a proper introduction.  Executive produced by Ryan Coogler, Ironheart is a 6-episode journey into the…

Honestly, I love this show. The humor works, it is unique in its own way, it has very likable and memorable characters and the story seems to be put together rather nicely.

Episodes 1 & 2 definitely had some pacing issues, but given the fact that the show only got six episodes to tell a full story it is expected and unavoidable.

Episode 3 was so far the best - great pacing, build-up and ending. It built anticipation for the next few episodes and I cannot wait to see them.

As for the characters, so far I can't find a character I dislike (in terms of writing), everyone is super charming in their own way. Riri as a main character is very well written, as an audience member it is very easy to criticize her for her many flaws but also to understand her from an emotional perspective. Her interactions with her family and friends are very realistic and weighted in their own unique ways. With that, the power of community really shines in Ironheart. From the aforementioned family to Parker's criminal clique which is clearly for Parker what Riri's family is for her. Speaking of Parker Robbins, he is indeed a very charming guy, although in the beginning I was a bit sceptical about his role, personality and future relation to Riri, episode 3 really grounds him and makes him both dislikable and easy to sympathize with. Another honorable mention goes to N.A.T.A.L.I.E, I really love her personality and the moral confusion she causes as the show progressed.

Overall I give the first three episodes a 6/10. Can't wait for more!
