In this book, everybody was kung-fu fighting. Those cats were fast as lightning. In fact it was a little bit frightening. But they fought with expert timing.
*ahem* Excuse me. I was humming that song the whole time I was reading this one.
Ed Brubaker is rapidly becoming one of my favorite comics writer, and he helped re-boot a B-level Marvel super hero here. Danny Rand became Iron Fist in a Shangri La- type city call K’un Lun where he learned marital arts and slayed a dragon to gain his powers. H...more

A superb run by Fraction and Brubaker with excellent art by Aja. The flashbacks to Iron Fist's of the past allow for some great guest artists and a change in tone from kung-fu flick to Pulp-era adventures.
The opening pages of Iron Fist taking on the Hydra Hordes are gorgeous to look at.

The team of Brubaker and Fraction is perfect. They took a silly, old, semi-useless superhero and made his story one of the most intriguing and genre-heavy martial arts fantasies ever told. I could read this over and over again.
Managed to get my hands on 8-12, too bad I couldn't have started at the beginning! Gripping and fun though.
Such good fun
Brubaker and Fraction, with artist extraordinaire David Aja and a slew of wonderful special guest pencillers, deliver yet another spectacular comic book run. They managed to take a C-list character like Iron Fist (no offense here: he was always one of my favs!) and really make him shine with a story that is a perfect blend of classic Marvel storytelling, pulp novels and Hong Kong action cinema. Priceless!
