Marvel unveiled its plans to celebrate the Iron Fist 50th anniversary with a new one-shot. Aptly titled Iron Fist 50th Anniversary Special, the oversized one-shot offers a selection of stories from across the character’s history. Ranging from the 1,000,000 B.C.E Avengers era to Danny Rand’s early years as Chris Claremont returns, and even the current Iron Fist Lin Lie’s story, the August release installment promises plenty of action and history.
Marvel unveiled the creative teams for the one-shot, which can be seen below:
- Visionary Iron Fist scribe Chris Claremont teams up with artist Lan Medina for a classic tale set during Iron Fist’s early years and co-starring Wolverine!
- Alyssa Wong, the writer behind today’s Iron Fist, brings you the next chapter of Lin Lie’s saga alongside artist Von Randal.
- Writer Justina Ireland and artist Elena Casagrande send Iron Fist on a mission where he join forces with his longtime allies—THE DAUGHTERS OF THE DRAGON!
- Writer Frank Tieri and artist Ty Templeton’s story sees Iron Fist send out the call to his old teammates—HEROES FOR HIRE!
- And writer Jason Loo and artist Whilce Portacio spotlight what the future may hold for Danny Rand!
Marvel also revealed the first three covers for the one-shot, illustrated by Alan Davis, Kevin Eastman, and Howard Chaykin.
