Ironheart's Wakanda adventure comes to a shocking conclusion. With allies Shuri, Silhouette and Okoye by her side, Riri Williams faces her biggest challenger yet: her own past. And things will never be the same.
Rated T
Ironheart #12 is the sendoff that fans deserved from this series. It's a chance to say goodbye, all while seeing Riri finally accept herself for who she is. Read Full Review
Ironheart focuses more on developing Riri as a character than it does on flashy fights against her adversaries, and the result is a big pay-off even if you've only been casually invested in the character. Read Full Review
Beautiful art as usual, but more exposition than I wanted. The writer was cramming in a lot of character development into the final issue 😑.

A fine culmination to a solid volume. The art will always be what I remember most from this series. Simply stunning from issue to issue.
Riri's paternal reunion is a bust, but some handy magic saves the day, shares his backstory, and helps Riri make some simple but powerful revelations about herself. The character art remains superb, and when the prose takes a turn to the direct, it suits Riri's analytical mind.
This wasn't the strongest issue to end on, but this series really had a lot of heavy lifting to do, and I think it succeeded. It made Riri her own character after her botched introduction and now I genuinely like her as a character. So, even if this was never my favorite title, I think it was an important one.
This was cute but I feel like it rushed way too much and I didn’t get everything I wanted out of it. I definitely feel like I like Riri more now, though.
