THE SEVEN HEAVENLY CITIES ARE FALLING! As demonic forces march their conquering army across the Seven Heavenly Cities, the only one who can stand in their way and restore order is IRON FIST! However, as more cities fall and the demonic forces swell, he'll need to rely on some unlikely allies to face the incoming onslaught. But will the combined forces of Elektra, White Tiger, White Fox, Pei, Karnak, and Fooh be enough to stem the tide…or is Lin Lie destined to watch as the legacy of the Iron Fist goes up in flames?

"As much as I love so many Marvel characters, the K'un-Lun/Iron Fist corner of the universe has always been the closest to my heart," Jiang shared. "And as someone who's been with Lin Lie almost from the very beginning, I feel the weight of the huge responsibility to take care of him in his next chapter. On top of all that, I know we're here to entertain you, so trust me– you won't see the punches coming! This book is for the fans out there just like me, and I can't wait for everyone to see the amazing Paco Medina shine as the superstar he is!"

"I'm so happy and excited to be working on this new Iron Fist series!" Medina said. "It's something completely new and full of challenges for me. I've already had fun doing some designs, and now I'm really focused on creating the most immersive story possible. Thanks to Yifan, I'm filling up on references and lots of details to make this world more real! I love Lin Lie's Iron Fist design, created by Jim Cheung, and I think it's going to be an honor for me to give my own version," he continued. "There's lots of fighting and martial arts poses—how could I not be excited?"
