Iron Fist Goes From Lame to Damn Respectable:

First off, we love Matt Fraction - which is why we interviewed him a while back. Now that we've come clean on that:
Iron Fist was always a lame superhero; created by Marvel in response to the Bruce Lee craze in the 1970s. He wore the green pajama bottoms and appeared along side the more complex and always more interesting Luke Cage. Then he'd make rather pathetic guest appearances on Marvel Team-Up.

Confusing, but has potential:

Makes ME wanna challenge Shou Lao the Undying!:

My favorite obscure Marvel character Iron Fist makes his return to comics in this book. Filled with superhero mysticism and crazy kung fu action, the stories contained within hold up well and deliver plenty of plot and drama. Billionaire superhero Danny Rand learns that he was not the first Iron Fist, and that there is more to his power than just punching through steel walls. A rich history and an exciting new universe await readers opening "The Immortal Iron Fist" for the first time...it won't disappoint.
