Iron Fist (Daniel "Danny" Rand) is a fictional character appearing in comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane, he first appeared in ''Marvel Premiere'' #15 (May 1974). He is a practitioner of martial arts and the wielder of a mystical force known as the Iron Fist, which allows him to summon and focus his chi. The character starred in his own solo series in the 1970s, and shared the title ''Power Man and Iron Fist'' for several years with Luke Cage, partnering with Cage to form the superhero team Heroes for Hire. The character has starred in numerous solo titles since, including ''The Immortal Iron Fist'', which expanded on his origin story and the history of the Iron Fist. The character will be making his live-action debut in a Netflix developed ''Iron Fist'' television series, the fourth and final in a series of shows that will culminate in a ''Defenders'' miniseries alongside Daredevil, Jessica Jones and frequent partner Luke Cage. ==Publication history== Iron Fist, along with the previously created Shang-Chi, Master of Kung Fu, came from Marvel Comics during a pop culture trend in the early to mid-1970s of martial arts heroes. Writer/co-creator Roy Thomas wrote in a text piece in ''Marvel Premiere'' #15 that Iron Fist's origin and creation owe much to the 1940s Bill Everett character, Amazing-Man. Thomas later wrote that he and artist/co-creator Gil Kane had Debuting in a story written by Thomas and pencilled by Kane in the umbrella title ''Marvel Premiere'' #15-25 (May 1974 – October 1975), he was then written successively by Len Wein, Doug Moench, Tony Isabella, and Chris Claremont, with art by successive pencillers Larry Hama, Arvell Jones, Pat Broderick, and, in some of his earliest professional work, John Byrne. Following this run, Iron Fist was immediately spun off into the solo series ''Iron Fist'', which ran 15 issues (November 1975 – September 1977). The solo series was written by Claremont and pencilled by Byrne. A subplot involving Steel Serpent left unresolved by the cancellation of the series was wrapped up in issues #63-64 of ''Marvel Team-Up''. To rescue the character from cancellation, Marvel paired Iron Fist up with another character who was no longer popular enough to sustain his own series, Luke Cage. The two were partnered up in a three-part story in Cage's series ''Power Man'' #48-50. The title of the series changed to ''Power Man and Iron Fist'' with issue #50 (April 1978), although the indicia did not reflect this change until issue #67. Iron Fist co-starred in the series until the final issue (#125, September 1986), in which he is killed off. Writer Jim Owsley (subsequently known as Christopher Priest) later commented, "Fist’s death was senseless and shocking and completely unforeseen. It took the readers’ heads clean off. And, to this day, people are mad about it. Forgetting, it seems, that (a) you were supposed to be mad, that death is senseless and Fist’s death was supposed to be senseless, or that (b) this is a comic book."〔 Iron Fist was revived half a decade later in ''Namor the Sub-Mariner'' #21-25 (December 1991 - April 1992), a story which revealed that the character killed in ''Power Man and Iron Fist'' #125 was a doppelganger. He then became a frequently starring character in the anthology series ''Marvel Comics Presents'', featuring in three multi-part story arcs and four one-shot stories within less than two years, in 1992 and 1993. Two solo miniseries followed: ''Iron Fist'' (vol. 2) #1-2 (September – October 1996), by writer James Felder and penciller Robert Brown; and ''Iron Fist'' (vol. 3) #1-3 (July – September 1998), by writer Dan Jurgens and penciller Jackson Guice. Also around this time, he was among the ensemble of the group series ''Heroes for Hire'' which ran 19 issues (July 1997 – January 1999). Following a four-issue miniseries by writer Jay Faerber and penciller Jamal Igle, ''Iron Fist: Wolverine'' (November 2000 – February 2001), co-starring the X-Men character Wolverine and cover-billed as ''Iron Fist/Wolverine: The Return of K'un Lun'', came another solo miniseries, ''Iron Fist'' vol. 4 #1-6 (May – October 2004), by writer Jim Mullaney and penciller Kevin Lau. The first issue of a new ongoing series, ''The Immortal Iron Fist'', by co-writers Ed Brubaker and Matt Fraction and primary artist David Aja, premiered with a January 2007 cover-date. Duane Swierczynski took over the series from issue #17.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Readying Iron Fist with Writer Duane Swierczynski )〕 Iron Fist appearances outside his own title include three Iron Fist stories in Marvel's black-and-white comics magazine ''Deadly Hands of Kung Fu'' #10 (March 1975), an additional story co-starring the Sons of the Tiger in issue #18 (November 1975), and a six-part serial, "The Living Weapon", in #19-24 (December 1975 – May 1976). He made guest appearances in such titles as ''Marvel Two-in-One'', ''Marvel Team-Up'', the Sub-Mariner series ''Namor'', ''Black Panther'', and ''Daredevil''. Iron Fist appeared as a regular character throughout the 2010-2013 ''New Avengers'' series, from issue #1 (August 2010) through its final issue #34 (January 2013). In 2014 Iron Fist was given new life and set to star in a new twelve issue comic book series written and drawn by Kaare Andrews titled ''Iron Fist: The Living Weapon'' as part of the All-New Marvel NOW! event.〔http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=50154〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Iron Fist (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
