Marvel's New Iron Man Is A 15 Year Old Black Girl

And that’s canon. ‘Riri is a science genius who enrolls in MIT at the age of 15,’ Time, which got the scoop, reports. ‘She comes to the attention of Tony when she builds her own Iron Man suit in her dorm.’
The handover will come at the end of Marvel’s comic book event series Civil War II, and was made with TV in mind.
