Bendis said he's had the idea for years, and stemming from a show that never aired.
"This stories of this brilliant, young woman whose life were marred by tragedy that could had easily ended her life-just ran Dom Street Violence-and went off to college is very inspiring to me.

Bendis also commented on the new characters shaping a more inclusive Marvel universe, like a female Thor and Asian-america N Hulk. This new hero fits.
"Thankfully because of my involvement in the creation of Miles Morales [Spider-man] and Jessica Jones and some other Chara Cters, it ' s getting the benefit of the doubt from even the most surly fans. There is fans who say, ' Show us the new stuff, ' and then there is fans who say, ' Don ' t anything different from when I Was a kid, ' "he added.
New "Invincible Iron man" cover shows Riri Williams, who would take over for Tony Stark.
There still is some fans who disagree with Marvel ' s progressive nature, but Bendis said, "increasingly we see less and Le SS of that. Once Miles hits, and Kamala Khan hit and female Thor Hit-there is a part of a audience crawling through the desert lookin G for a oasis when it came to representation, and now that it's here, you'll go online and be greeted with the this wave of L Ove. "
"Now, if you had a young woman come-to-a signing and say how happy she was to be represented in his universe, You know your ' re moving in the right direction, "he continued.
And for why Stark was taking off his suit?
"We ' re in the middle of a very big Tony Stark storyline-actually three storylines converging. His best friend died, he company is collapsing and he's finding out who's biological parents were all at the same time, "he said." Tony is also a master at not paying attention to the thing that's most important and distracting himself with Avengers Stu Ff. How this all shakes out such that Tony was no longer in the armor? You'll have a to-wait to find out for the end of civil War Ii. "
