"When I get my hands on that creepy bastard...he's going to pay for making me do this. For making me fight Shang-Chi."

Iron Fist Week, Day 3: A Favorite Relationship

If we lived in a better, kinder, and at least 10% cooler world, there'd be a comic out there called something like "Shang-Chi and Iron Fist: Deadly Hands of Kung Fu" and it would kick. ass. These two have had an understated but extremely sweet, continuity-crossing friendship for decades, stretching back to when they were both tiny, naive nineteen-year-olds still trying to figure out their lives. As two major pillars of what we might call the kung fu side of the Marvel Universe, born out of the 1970s' martial arts media craze, they have always had their own title comics and separate adventures, but whenever we get to see them cross over into each other's stories, it's always a treat.

It is very natural for discussions of Danny and Shang-Chi to fall onto the subject of who is the better martial artist. They are both, arguably, the best in the Marvel Universe. And thus, it's utterly magical to me that, while they have been forced to fight each other many times, these fights have been left intentionally inconclusive. It's far more fun for them—and for us—to never actually know.

Been reading the Ultimate (2024) comics. Really interested where they go with Shen qi (Shang Chi in this verse). Comics really fast paced so, it's hard to keep track in what's going on.

I do appreciate how philosophical Shang Chi is, actually. I don't think the movie marvel made captured the pain and beauty I've seen in some of Doug Moench's stuff. These stories feel more like they'd have made an excellent tv show. Something dramatic, something in the classic adventure style of a world traveller show. The book seems to just mostly be Shang Chi travelling the world trying to hunt down his father's many associates, all while being occasionally accompanied by an old british man and his gruff aide-de-camp. It probably would've made decent tv.

There is something very profound about the book always being narrated by Shang Chi himself. The character's personal thoughts are open to us at all times, and it's a great way to really just feel what he feels. I like it, and I can relate to the characters deep naivete and shock when he engages with the world. He grew up in his father's ancient mansion in china. He seems to know close to nothing of the world outside. And that charms me. Like how Iron Fist knew nothing outside K'un L'un. It makes for relatability and an ability for me to project onto these characters.

PS: Also, I know how I'd describe the difference between Shang Chi and Iron Fist. Iron Fist is a martial artist superhero, but Shang Chi is definitely not a superhero. He's just a nomadic man who's got no powers and only one real mission: to dismantle his father's global criminal empire. Shang Chi only has a few crossovers. I think the only other marvel characters he meets are Spider-Man, The Thing and Rom: Space Knight. Outside of them, Shang Chi stays in his martial arts niche. He might meet White Tiger or Iron Fist, but he doesn't engage with the costumes heroes often.

Iron Fist does. Iron Fist meets Iron Man and Captain America and The X-Men before he even gets his crossover with Luke Cage. They're both martial artists, but I think Danny Rand could be something like the gateway drug to the more clearly divorced from superheroes stuff of Shang Chi. Iron Fist blends superheroes and martial arts, but Shang Chi is all martial arts. Same niche, different purposes within the niche.

Master of Kung Fu Annual #1 by Doug Moench, Keith Pollard, Petra Goldberg, Duffy Vohland, John Tartaglione, and Jean Hipp

Just two teens in V-necks wandering around London.

Danny and Shang-Chi’s friendship is underrated and wonderful, and it’s great to see both of them together here in this early issue, so young and still figuring life out, bonding over the many things they share.

Beyond that, I find it very touching how obvious Danny’s homesickness for K’un-Lun is throughout this conversation. He keeps trying to talk about it, to relate it to Shang-Chi in some way, to find any kind of connection to his home while trapped here on Earth. Danny has always been an archetypal fish-out-of-water, but it is felt most acutely in these early issues, when he was so isolated and untethered.

THE UNDEAD IRON FIST #1 (OF 4) Written by JASON LOO Art by FRAN GALÁN Cover by WHILCE PORTACIO THE IRON FIST RISES! The Book of the Iron Fist declares that every IRON FIST will die by the age of 33…but who created this false prophecy? Danny Rand was killed…but can you truly kill an IMMORTAL IRON FIST? Learn the truth about the legacy of the Iron Fist as Danny Rand rises once more to snuff out those that threaten that legacy…before Danny’s time runs out.

Ten months after he was callously killed off during his own 50th anniversary celebration, we finally have some news on Danny Rand's future! The Undead Iron Fist is a four-issue miniseries kicking off this September. In the words of writer Jason Loo:

"There was always a plan to bring him back, but we wanted to make the fans wait. Not only was I busy plotting his next explosive chapter, Danny has been going through his own journey to find his way back into the 616 land of the living. And from the very first issue, he’s back swinging with ruthless vengeance. Artist Fran Galán is bringing so much wicked kineticism on every page, readers are going to be floored by this book.”

Following the profound lack of care and coherence from Marvel over the past few years when it has come to Danny, I'm unfortunately approaching this project with some degree of world-weary skepticism. "Four-issue miniseries" also doesn't fill me with confidence regarding Marvel's investment in this comic. BUT! I love anything that digs into the Iron Fist lore and the minutiae of K'un-Lun's history, so this sounds like something that could really, really appeal to me if handled well. Beyond even that, the sheer relief of having Danny back in the land of the living and starring in his own series is, to me, the most important thing here. I will be supporting this comic in every way I can; the best way to ensure Danny's future is to show Marvel how much we care.
