Immortal Iron Fist Vol.2

Like Captain America before him, Danny Rand, the Immortal Iron Fist is getting the Brubaker touch! Working together with writer Matt Fraction the duo are redefining Iron Fist’s legacy in the new series. It’s just as important to note however, that this in no way means that they are rewriting the history. Instead both writers are showing the reader why this character and his world are now and always have been cool. As it should be (with a book like Iron Fist), this martial arts, pulp masterpiece is a must for all Kung Fu fans. The second volume focuses itself around a tournament in the mystical city of K’un-lun –a city that only appears every seven years. The tournament takes place at a time when K’un-lun merges with the other six capitol cities of heaven, where each city provides a champion –a living weapon, much like Iron Fist himself. The style of the book is a perfect love note to all the kun fu movies you’ve never seen, right down to the subtitling of each move a fighter makes, like “Burning Chi Thunderfoot” or “Mistress Of All Agonies”. As the tournament speeds to its inevitable conclusion, Iron Fist must deal with the foes and allies of his past and foil a mad Hydra plot to destroy the city! If you like what Geoff Johns is doing for Green Lantern, then pick up Iron Fist, you won’t be disappointed!
