Last Summer, Marvel made headlines with the announcement that Tony Stark would be vacating his Iron Man suit and a 15-year-old, M.I.T. graduate student named Riri Williams would be replacing him. Codenamed Ironheart, the character debuted in the pages of Invincible Iron Man and was and instant sellout, garnering covering on Good Morning America, TIME Magazine and Entertainment Weekly. A year later, her creator, Brian Michael Bendis is vacating his long-tenure at Marvel for a fresh start at DC Comics. So what happens to Riri Williams now? In his absence, is it possible for Riri to still become the next Miles Morales or Jessica Jones or will she fall into obscurity like Butterfly?
