When 15-year-old Riri loses her stepdad and best friend in a street shooting, the young supergenius flies off to fight evil in a superpowered suit of armor she built in the family garage. Now, Iron Man's Tony Stark just happens to be in a coma, and Riri finds herself in his gig being coached by a snarky "advanced artificial intelligence construct" of Tony himself. Riri sparkles with snarky charm, while cooking up brilliant battle strategies. Excellent art and coloring, and Bendis is on-point with his script.
