REVIEW: Ironheart – Season 1, Episode 5, “Life’s a Glitch”
“Karma’s a Glitch” has the most action in an Ironheart episode so far, so I suppose it’s the best one on that level. The action isn’t very good or believable, although at least Riri finally gets to act like the smart person everyone insists she is for a few seconds. The rest of the second-...

After months – years, if you didn’t forget it existed before the first trailer – of dread, Ironheart has finally premiered on Disney+. The miniseries (because Marvel isn’t even pretending they’re going to greenlight more of this) will air three of its six episodes tonight and three next T...
