Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne) a.k.a. Ironheart is finally returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) after her debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, with her own series. Ironheart focuses on the titular character finding her place in this vast universe, after her "internship" in Wakanda, where she teamed with them to fend off the Talokans. While Riri had the opportunity to team-up with Shuri (Letitia Wright) and use Wakandan technology to craft a new suit for said battle, when she left the borders of Wakanda, she had to leave her new suit behind as well. This leaves Ironheart to allow Riri to have a new journey centered around building a new suit, but since the series takes place in her hometown of Chicago, she won't have access to the tools she was used to when attending MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). Meaning Riri will need to seek out new allies in order to acquire the materials needed to create a suit that is iconic.
