Also, that's not what I saw after the end credits.

I'm not an Iron Fist aficionado but in the comics I've read they tend to take him seriously in solo books but he's a goof ball when teamed with Luke Cage.

He is now, but in their original book, he was not.

His first (2) solo series are fucking awesome. Made me a lifelong fan of the character.

I found parts of Iron Fist weak, but I don't hate Danny Rand. He's fine.

hes not a dumbass per se, but before the shift in how comics were written (starting in the 2000s) i think he got more serious and better written

little known fact. wolverines biggest antagonist started off as an Iron Fist villain, Sabretooth himself

If Iron Fist is going to stick around they need to knock him down to rock bottom and kick some of the naive out of him.

I like how Danny Rand has killed a dragon, but Daredevil kicks his ass in Ep. 5.

I like how this wrapped up. Episode 8 was great, especially the fight scene soundtracked by Protect Ya' Neck.



Also, random thought ... do you think Danny Rand masturbates with the Iron Fist, or would that rip his dick off?

Theoretically, only if beheaded.

"Light it up, Danny." and Protect ya' Neck comes on. That's a pretty sweet fucking scene.

This is unbelievably terrible and confirms that David Tennant was the saving grace of Jessica Jones Season 1.

The acting couldn't be any worse.
