The Immortal Iron Fist #1

Creators: Ed Brubaker and Matt Fraction, writers; David Aja, artist
Marvel, 32 pages, color, $2.99
So? Marvel makes another attempt to revive this character, who has never had much success on his own, and ends up with at the very least the most entertaining Iron Fist story in a very long time. Brubaker and Fraction take the titular character, billionaire superpowered Kung-Fu fighter Danny Rand, and postulate that the forces that gave him his powers would have given others powers throughout history. That means there’s a lot of other Iron Fists to learn about, and we get to meet a couple in this issue. The rest of it is him doing business and fighting Hydra, all of which works well thanks to the funky and atmospheric art of David Aja. Grade: B
