Riri Williams, aka Ironheart had a first appearance in 2016, and in 2017 she officially became Ironheart... but what if I told you that there was a female Iron Man knockoff called Ironheart long before Riri Williams... this Ironheart is also a minority and the star of a Japanese Porn Parody of Iron Man...
Yeah... this is awkward. Unlike most media pointing out Ironheart's origins with Marvel's white male erasure program, I'm simply going to laugh at the stupidity of naming the character after a porn parody. I guess this is another thing Miss Williams stole. (Remember that she stole Stark tech to make her armor... and stolen Stark tech is what started the original Armor Wars in the comics. Stealing from another property makes sense for the character.)This is way too sloppy for Marvel/Disney. I can't believe that they let such a mistake go unchecked...
Wait, this was pointed out in 2016!? Yet Marvel kept on going... Seriously?
I guess Mr. Takei has very low opinions of Joe Quesada, the guy who "coined the name Ironheart for Riri".
