A NEMESIS RETURNS SENDING SHOCKWAVES THROUGH RIRI’S WORLD!
She’s already attacked Chicago once and made off with a valuable artifact from the DuSable Black History Museum. Now the alchemical transformer KHEM is back for another bite of Ironheart’s city – and this time, she’s not alone. What is Khem’s connection to a classic Iron Man villain – and can Riri stop her before all of Chicago burns?
