Her name was Wu Ao-Shi, and she was known as the Pirate Queen of Pinghai Bay...and that all came after she left K'un-Lun and took the power of the Iron Fist with her.

At long last, America: someone has combined pirates, kicking, girls, and Iron Fist into a single comic book. You're welcome.

I think this is going to be a great story. I've been looking forward to the start of stories about the Iron Fists of the past, and Wu Ao-Shi's story looks like it's going to be very interesting. The whole done by the art of Travel Foreman is a bonus, I love his art! The solicit for this issue just sounds great, I can't wait to pick up #7 this Wednesday!

Y'know, I was a little leery when it came to this issue. But after seeing the previews, definitely going to pick it up. The way of storytelling and the various elements seem very East Asian based.

Hmm, that looks quite good. I've been wanting to jump on Iron Fist, this seems like a good jump in. I have the first issue and that's about it. I'll have to pick up the trade when it's released.

OMG!!! You really need to get the other issues FAST! This is hands down, the best street level character book Marvel has going for it now. I enjoy this title way more than I did Bendis' Daredevil, and that was my favorite book for like 5 years straight!

Eeehh, this looks cool but I worry I wont enjoy it as much as I should, due to my excitement for the next arc to begin.

I'm looking at it as a catch your breath detour before the next arc begins. I'm definately looking forward to both!

Yeah, I think this is going to be a great story. And I really look forward to the life of Wu Ao-Shi. I'm really wondering if her story will have anything to do with Danny and the kung fu tournament?

Yes, now would be the perfect time to jump in on this series. And as for the trade for the first arc, I think you can expect it to hit shelves next month. :D

Eeehh, this looks cool but I worry I wont enjoy it as much as I should, due to my excitement for the next arc to begin.

I think this would be the perfect jumping on point for new readers, aswell as a chance to learn more about the Iron Fists of the past. I think it's going to be great. And then next month, the kung fu tournament begins!!!

Really looking forward to this. I think it's nice that we'll be getting issuses like this between arcs. I honestly can't wait for the kung fu tournament to start after this issue.
