Part 8/9:
Overall, Iron Heart was a misfire with glimpses of potential buried under poor execution, rushed storytelling, and underdeveloped characters. While the attempt to adapt Riri Williams’ character into an antihero or villain was bold and arguably more authentic than her comic book persona, the execution failed to resonate.
The inclusion of Mesto as a villain and the magic elements hinted at potential, but these ideas fizzled out without meaningful payoff. The ending’s cliffhanger leaves fans wondering and disappointed, considering the show's doubtful future.
