Marvel’s Ironheart crawled to its merciful end on July 1, 2025, delivering a finale riddled with hypocrisy where Riri Williams clearly appears to strike a deal with Mephisto to bring back her friend Natalie.

If you thought the first three episodes of Ironheart were bad, buckle up. Somehow, Marvel managed to dig even deeper into the well of awful. The final three episodes of Ironheart don’t just continue the disaster—they accelerate it, hurling the show off a cliff of lazy writing, nonsensical tech, virtue signaling, and a complete disregard for logic or consequence.
