Product Description: Once a generation, the Seven Capital Cities of Heaven align on a plane far beyond the ken of mortal men. It is here that these cities send their Immortal Warriors to compete against one another in a combat tournament to end all tournaments, and it is here that Daniel Rand was spirited to in his darkest hour. Generations of mystical war traditions await their chance to prove they have the greatest kung-fu - to the Immortal Iron Fist! Plus: The Book of Iron Fist, written on parchment made from the dragon scales of Shou-Lao the Undying, tells the life stories and kung-fu secrets of every man and woman ever to hold the mantle of the Immortal Iron Fist - except two.

The other was Orson Randall, the Golden Age Iron Fist, and he died as he lived: trying to outrun the Iron Fist legacy. And if Danny hopes to escape a similar fate, he'll have to track down Orson's long-lost story and learn the mysteries within before it's too late. Collects Immortal Iron Fist #8-14 and Annual #1.
Fantastic story, amazing art! I really love this Iron Fist book. Volume one was amazing, and volume two is just as good. I love the other Immortal Weapons that are introduced in this story too. Great action, some good humor, and a nice resolution. Overall it's a fantastic read, and I'm just knocking off one star because it does drag just a bit towards the end. It could have probably been about one issue shorter.
Brubaker has done it again! Like vol. 1, Brubaker has done it again. Someone has finally written Iron Fist the way it should have always been done. The story line is first-rate and the art work is top notch. It is about time that Iron Fist got what he dserved, a great story line and a deeply developed charachter. This is the way that Iron Fist should be written. Five stars all the way!
Classic Kung-Fu Action!! I haven't read an Iron Fist comic in years, if ever, but II have to say I want to check them all out now. This was a classic Kung-Fu action tale that would make a great movie. It touches slighty with the Marvel Universe ubt could easily stand alone. Great stuff!!
Review of Immortal Iron Fist Series Issues 1 - 2 I've been wanting to read this book for a good while. Amazon recommended it to me of all things. Based on my rating on Batman graphic novels.
Iron Fist was always a character of the Marvel universe I was interested in. Sadly I never really picked up much of his individual comics and mostly caught him in guest star roles.
This book series reintroduces us to the character and the mythos of Iron Fist. It also expands that mythos, and re-imagines some of the main characters. For me this is a win all the way around.
The quality of the books is generally excellent with a few exceptions and those would be small dialogues and art lapses. What happened there I'm not sure, but they seem oddly placed in otherwise wonderfully energetic art and fun interaction.
Some of the characters seem rather pathetic and one dimensional at first. As the series continues though they grow and flesh out some.
My biggest disappointment? Not enough martial arts action. :)
I've not put my hands on the third in the series but I'm looking forward to reading and enjoying it as well.
Best story ever of Iron Fist This is the best comic book story I have read in the last year. Great buy!
