Ngl i never got into iron fist. Barry just didnt catch my eye... BUT LIN AS THE NEW IRON FIST IS SO DOPE! Im glad Marvel Rivals showed me there was a new IF, i woulda missed this
Yup. I just learned this by playing Marvel Rivals. Like "That don't look like Danny Rand??" 😅 But Lin looks pretty badass. I like the design. He really fits what the iron fist should be 👊🏻
sure, if you don't care that by that logic his hands should be mush by now and that he shouldn't even be ablel to use them due to the alleged pain he feels. Not that the comics ever portrayed then. Then again, those were written by Greg Pak if I remember correctly and that guy wrote some of the worst comics I ever read.
@inotaishu1 You included the word 'logic' in a discussion about a comic book character... You're aware of the characters that can fly, run faster than light, bench press a planet? 🧠⚙️
@@joshuagcwong734well in that case: Lin Lie is a cannibal and baby murderer and that is totally fine that he raped scarlet witch because who needs logic in comics right? People can fly in comics.
I really like this mantle takeover! Sometimes a passing of the torch can be pretty corny but I feel like sword master as the new iron fist is here to stay, like miles Morales as spider man or sam Wilson as captain america. I love this thank you marvel
I don't care much for teenagers becoming the "new this" and "new that" superhero. Mainly due to their inexperience as that hero. They usually have to grow on me, and prove that they're good enough.
The worst part of the teenage successors is having to go through their "I need no help" phase. That is one of the aspects I disliked, Lin Lie, acting like a brat, why not ask the help of a former Iron Fist?
Im here to refresh now that Lien, lein (i dont know how to spell his name off the top of my head) is in marvel rivals. Given how Marvel Treats how successful stuff works i have a feeling this new version will be the version for a long time. So i feel that Marvel Needs to Do something new with Danny Rand. Mabye have him go join up with the guardians and explore how Shao lou and the 10 cities got to earth or something i dont know. Something new that respects Danny but gives this new iron fist room to grow and explore his new role.
Hopefully we get an *Okoye* guest appearance in a future issue and see how she's dealing with the responsibility after the events of *Heart Of The Dragon* or if she even cares at all at what responsibilities she has undertaken. Short of it is I think this series is going to squash that whole series and return her chi powers back to *Rand* where *Lin Lie* and *Rand* can have an *Orson & Danny* passing the torch moment.
Swordmaster is definitely an underused character hope he gets the sword back. Maybe he will turn to out to be the unbreakable sword and reforge it with the iron fist
It's something the comic publishers been doing the last years. Switching out established characters for new ones. Usually another gender and/or ethnicity. Usually don't stick either. Only character I can think of where it became permanent is Fury, head of Shield.
If Danny Rand no longer has powers. Why didn't they allow him to join Daredevil and Elektra's new organization"The Fist" as all members of that organization gain all around enhanced physical abilities.
Just make it better theb Starship Hulk and have Whitefox cameo every once a while and we are good. I swear that current arc would make explosions fizz out.
I liked the og story of ironfist but I never really liked how he was white, I felt like an Asian fit more into the role. I wish Lin had the same path just that it was passed down
That R@ci$t AF Only Asian people can do martial art or is it if they’re Asian they are good at math and martial arts 😂 the majority of Chinese kung fu master moved away form China in the 1960-70 to European&. American countries because the Chinese population didn’t care about the tradition anymore, this was on the back of Bruce Lee making kung fu popular in the western countries so many the of the the students and eventually masters where white and black That’s wild, like saying the flash should be black because he runs fas.
I Like danny rand, but He had to pass the mantle of Iron fist YEARS Ago, he is just not Interesting, Even the Other Iron fists in his comics are much more interesting.
Wait, when did Danny give up his powers? Aside from Devil's Reign, I pretty much stopped reading anything non X-Men, Dr Strange, Spider-Man, Thor, Marvel cosmic, or Fantastic 4 related. Also, I'm legit surprised they choose Lin. I actually did pick up the comics related to him, only becuase I liked White Fox's design and a Dr Strange tie-in/cameo😂.
it's pronounced Lin Lyeh btw. and Fuxi is pronounced approximately 'fu-hsee' the i in chiyou is like a schwa. and you is pronounced like yow also he's been with the Agents of Atlas so not really just with white fox. he trained under Shang-Chi and Ji Shuangshuang (the carrier of another divine weapon) before so
@@comicbreakdown Chinese Pinyin follows different rules so it might help to look at the Mandarin Phonology Wikipedia page. :) Great video tho, glad to see someone else excited about this series. I've been wanting more of him ever since his and Aero's series were cancelled. :( It seemed people don't know what to do with him side from that one joke about Chiyou which gets old quick.
I stopped reading Danny Rand’s Iron Fist comics after 2018, but this new Iron Fist series is brilliant to start reading Iron Fist comics again. Besides this new take gives better concept for new generation readers to having an Asian character take the mantle as Iron Fist.
Imagine if the West African Voodoo deities had chosen a white guy to gift their power. I don't like race swapping heroes but if the origins of the hero are rooted in Chinese mysticism then the hero should've been Chinese in the first place. Having martial arts as a big part of the Asian guy's super power is getting boring though. Marvel knows this and that's why they gave Shang-Chi the 10 rings. And the only other Asian guy I can think of is Sunfire. Wow, Marvel really missed the opportunity to cash in on a billion new fans. Ya blew it.
@@comicbreakdown To be fair any generic anime has a sword and its own lore and can be really good. Martial arts just also goes with lots of anime too. Why would anybody want to read about Marvel's martial arts superheroes when there's actually far more focus knowledge and attention to martial arts heroes in anime? It's like hey you can have actual cake made by serious professionals knowledgeable about baking cakes, and then here's a cake with a bit of shit on it - this one's Marvel's cake.
@@comicbreakdown FYI, the phrase "to be fair" means you want to politely disagree with someone. You've said nothing that counters my original statement that there are oddly so few Asian superheroes in Marvel and all of the most famous ones are just martial arts, also Marvel is severely lacking in such an easy market to acquire. This is all I said. If you disagree with it you should address them directly. If you don't disagree with anything I said, you shouldn't have said "to be fair". Already you've failed basic English and I question your ability to promote stories and lore from Marvel.
@@dmon5229 MOst of the Iron Fist have been Asian. Please read the history of Iron Fist. Danny Rand is not a white savior character. He grew up in Kun Lun and earned the the Iron Fist. Swordmaster needs to get the sword back together to fulfill his duty.
@@dmon5229 nobody said non Asian can study martial arts.why is it in pop culture it’s always the white guy who is “the chosen one” or becomes the absolute best aka Richard dragon from DC comics
Had they not completely butchered Danny’s character in order to get to this new Iron Fist, I might even like Lin. But considering what they’ve done to Danny, I can’t even take Lin seriously…
Sorry but Larry Hama did Danny wrong , Danny is and should be the Iron Fist this is a total woke move to check Boxes 50 years of DannyRand down the drain Goodbye Marvel
Legacy characters I wouldn’t call woke. I’d say it’s a way to pass the torch and let way for new and different stories. Lin Lee totally deserves this chance to have the mantle even if it’s for a short while
You act as if they burned all the Danny Rand Iron Fist comics in a pit? They’re still there for you and future readers, maybe just maybe Marvel found it advantageous to pivot the Iron Fist brand away from its “White Savior” narrative roots & take a less culturally daft approach :/
@@comicbreakdown You mean like when Okoye took the power of the Iron Fist and stole the spotlight for the mini series that led to this? This move and how it was executed still doesn't make it any less woke no matter how you fluff it. The entire Iron Fist lore was already designed to be diverse with a cast of characters that already had and have the potential to be the next Iron Fist with Kun Lun being portrayed as have local and foreign-born population from the beginning. I don't understand the logic of the SJW crowd trying to fix something that was never broken. The problem with Iron Fist was that the storyline was constantly overshadowed by the cosmic-problem heroes like the Avengers, FF4 & X-Men. There are a lot more ways to pass the torch in a respectful way than what Heart of the Dragon did and all it did was leave a black mark that Lin Lee's run is gonna be near forgotten about in 20 years time as a woke trend.
@@ButtercupBeast There is nothing wrong with being socially aware. Also, being a warrior for social justice is nothing to be ashamed of. Saying phrases like “woke” and “SJW” like those are insults is just stupidity. You checked all the boxes too….
This is ridiculous. You can talk about mantles being passed and it’s no big deal blah blah blah. Bullshit. It’s a big deal. You want a new comic book character that fits some social agenda then CREATE one. Stop changing characters that I have been reading about since the 1970s

Fun Fact:
Danny Rand in his 1970s Marvel Comic debuts originally looked similar to a blonde and clean-shaven Chuck Norris when unmasked.

Good afternoon comic breakdown 😃
Danny:”I don’t need powers I got these hands”
Really really hope that Wave and the other Agents of Atlas can make a cameo in the future issues.
I'm at that stage of "I dunno".
To be honest, I'm not sure what the writers are trying to do here.
It's something the comic publishers been doing the last years. Switching out established characters for new ones. Usually another gender and/or ethnicity. Usually don't stick either. Only character I can think of where it became permanent is Fury, head of Shield.
Instead of creating something new they want to destroy icons

Which comic did Danny give up his power?
The one where he saw his Netflix show and said he couldn’t be apart of that nonsense anymore
