I havd to wait for the trade for this comic and the wait finally paid off. I just bought it and have only read the first issue so far. Despite the hype everyone here has given it, I was skeptical because Iron-Fist was never a character I liked or had any interest in, my favourite moments were when he decided to wear Daredevil's costume for Civil War!
However, I really enjoyed the first issue. Nice art, plenty of action and a nice shocker ending for a first issue, even if we do know that the main character won't die in the first issue of his ongoing (Someone tell that to Brubaker with his amazing Cap series at the moment, without Cap!) The only thing that annoyed me was that Iron-Fist was going through his life history and origins whilst facing numerous enemies? If they weren't such a threat that he could afford to do that, I could understand, but he totally jobbed to them at the end ✅ Good issue though and I'm glad I waited for the trade cos it has his story from the civil war choosing sides at the back 😄
I will probably continue to get this series but in the trades because I'm guessing there will not be much correspondence with the main MU for a long while in this title, it looks like Brubaker has plenty of stories to tell ✅
