The Immortal Iron Fist - issues #7, #15, Annual #1, The Immortal Iron Fist: Orson Randall and the Green Mist of Death, #16 (2007-2008)
At first glance, you might think these issues are superfluous, but they are essential in grasping the fullness of the mythology that Brubaker and Fraction created surrounding the Iron Fist.
Issue #7 tells the story of Wu Ao-Shi, Iron Fist during the 16th century. Drawn by Travel Foreman, Khari Evans, and Leandro Fernandez, it tells the story of how a young woman, born in poverty, became the avenger of the oppressed known as The Pirate Queen of Pinghai Bay. Issue #15 is the story of Bei Bang-Wen, Iron Fist during the mid-1800s, who, with his “perfect strategy mind,” fought British colonizers during the Opium Wars and was taken prisoner and sent to India.
With a present day framing device drawn by Howard Chaykin, Annual #1 sees Danny Rand traveling to find the surviving friends of Orson Randall, the previous Iron Fist, to discover more about him. Who was he? Why did he run away from his destiny? What was his relationship to Danny’s father? The issue answers some of those questions and presents some adventures of Orson Randall and the “Confederates of the Curious” from the pulp era and after.
Orson Randall and the Green Mist of Death is crucial. Drawn by a host of artists, including Mike Allred, Stefano Gaudiano, and Mitch Breitweiser, the issue tells of Orson’s encounters being hunted by the Immortal Weapon known as the Prince of Orphans. Why was he hunting him down? How does their story relate to Danny? And most shocking of all, who is he?
And then, finally, issue #16. Aja returns for the finale and together with Fraction presents a poignant, beautifully accomplished issue that ties some loose ends and connects Danny back to his home of New York and, more importantly, to his partner, friend, and lover—Luke, Colleen, and Misty. It reveals how Danny wants to spend his fortune, what happens to his company, and leads ultimately to a shocking revelation about every Iron Fist who has ever lived.
It’s a lovely end to one of the very best comic runs of the early aughts.
3/3
