Marvel comics editor in chief Alex Alonso talked about the future of Iron Fist during CBR's Axel-In-Charge when a fan asked him about the status of Iron Fist. Looks like 2012 will be a great year for Iron Fist. Above is also a teaser of Defender's issue 2 & 3. Here is what the fan asked and Axel's response :
To round out the year, let's get some good, ol' fashioned "What's up with my favorite?" queries out there. We'll start with The Iron Fist, who I'm sure you can guess is asking after a particular Marvel hero: "When will we see the situation with Iron Fist as the Immortal Weapon of Agamotto addressed? It's been a year since it happened, isn't it time he goes back to being the Immortal Weapon of K'un-Lun we all know and love? Thanks for your time!"
Alonso: All I can say is that Iron Fist -- and, indeed, K'un-Lun -- will play a key role in 2012's "Avengers Vs. X-Men." Danny Rand's profile in the Marvel Universe is about to get a whole lot bigger. I've loved this character ever from his first appearance in "Marvel Premiere" #15 to Ed Brubaker, Matt Fraction and David Aja's masterful handling of him in "The Immortal Iron Fist." If you're dying for your Iron Fist fix, check out "Defenders" #6.
