Here’s everything you may have missed this morning Monday, August 20, 2018. In Case You Missed It (ICYMI).
1. New RIRI WILLIAMS: IRONHEART Title Launches This Fall via Comic Book Movie
Writer Eve L. Ewing, a Chicagoen, said that she is tuning into Williams’ own Chicago roots.
“She was born and raised in Chicago, but because she’s a superhero, her adventures take her all over the place. She also had a lab at MIT, that’s also kind of her headquarters. Her mom still lives in Chicago. I decided specifically that she’s from South Shore,” said Ewing. “Previous writers put in so much, in terms of beginning her autobiographical details, but as a Chicagoan, I want to get down and dirty – like where did Riri go to high school? What bus does she take? Does she eat hot chips? These are the things that are really going to make her a full three-dimensional person. I’m really excited about putting in some of those little Chicago details.”
