Yes, but she identifies as a man

- occasionally

A rehash of the 1980s Marvel Iron Man story when Tony Stark quits and Rhodie (current War Machine) takes over the role of Iron Man. The House Of Ideas should be re-nicknamed the House of Re-Hashed Ideas.

Comics do this kind of stuff all the time. They’ve been doing it for decades. No big deal.

“Riri is a science genius who enrolls in MIT at the age of 15.”

Right, because there are so many women and minorities in STEM fields.

Oh well, the Hulk will still kick her butt up and down the street.

Haven’t read a comic book in 55 years...Means nothing to me other than another way to make men look weak and a woman the strong hero...

PS: The 80s storyline where Rhodes takes over the Iron Man armor made sense story logic wise. He was a pilot and worked closely with Tony Stark. The idea that Stark would trust a stranger - even a good person at heart and a genius in college - with a weapon he does not trust to the US govt just is stupid. It is a dumbing down of plot narrative for Marvel.

They’re going to take that razor blade dildo known as PC and shove it in every orifice they can find. :)
