Champions #2 (39)
In Champions #2 (2021), with key teammates behind bars and facing re-education, the remaining core members track down Riri, who’s hesitant to step into her Ironheart role. When CRADLE agents close in, her reluctance gives way to action as she joins the fight—not just to help her friends, but to protect her own freedom. Written by Eve L. Ewing and illustrated by Simone Di Meo and Bob Quinn, with colors by Federico Blee and letters by VC's Clayton Cowles, the issue’s cover by Toni Infante captures the tension and urgency of the moment.
