Anyone watching Ironheart?

I don't know much about the character from comics, since she debuted long after I'd stopped reading regularly, but I've watched the first two episodes, and I like pretty much everything about the series so far.

I like the tone, the look, the pacing, the soundtrack, the characters, the dialogue, all of it. And Dominique Thorne is simply fantastic in the title role. The camera loves her, and she brings a real charm and charisma to the character.

Looking forward to the next ep!

edited to add: The only criticisms I've seen have been the entirely predictable thumbdick incel whiners whining about "DEI" and "woke mind virus," but they can go fuck themselves.

I liked her in 'Wakanda Forever' and I am hoping that she knocks it out of the park again.

I look forward to seeing it.

In one scene, you can see a Black Lives Matter poster.

That's apparently enough to disgust and horrify the loudest critics of the show who were seemingly determined to dislike it.
