Fans Have Mixed Opinions On Ironheart Reveal
Fans are reacting to Ironheart’s new look in her new suit. One fan wrote, “I hope it looks better by the end of the movie because that looks worse than Tony’s Mark 1”. Another fan tweeted, “This is a pretty awesome design. Distinctly different from Tony’s first attempts yet it’s still obvious where she pulls the inspiration from. Wasn’t that thrilled with the IronHeart announcement, but the more I see the more interested I get.”

I get she's a kid but damn there's a lot of risky exposure in that suit compared to Tony's. pic.twitter.com/9xKAPCwJLE
