Netflix’s Iron Fist continues with “Eight Diagram Dragon Palm,” the fourth episode of Danny Rand’s adventures in New York. Last time, they ended with him plunging off the side of a skyscraper to his potential doom. He manages to catch himself on a protruding light after falling not terribly far. He breathes out a murmured,…
Netflix’s Iron Fist continues the story of Danny’s return to New York. The episode titles all sound like various martial arts techniques you’d hear shouted out during some types of kung fu movies. This time around, it’s “Rolling Thunder Cannon Punch,” which doesn’t seem to relate to anything that happens this episode, or not…
The very surreal Legion comes to the end of the first season with Chapter 8. I kept expecting the chapter names to change to something else halfway through the season, considering how odd the rest of the show is, but that never happened. But the show remained just as odd up to the finale. For…
Now that Iron Fist has finally come out, Netflix is moving forward with the big team up. The Defenders will feature all four heroes: Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, much of their supporting casts, and there are rumors about the Punisher popping up. They have finally given us a release date: August…
Legion’s short season continues along its psychedelic way in the not creatively-named “Chapter 7.” Most of the cast are still trapped in the illusionary version of the Clockworks Institute, presided over by Lennie. Lennie is playing a very different version of doctor in this world, and most of them would rather not be playing. Just…
The first episode didn’t end in a good place for Danny Rand. He was betrayed by someone he thought was a friend, drugged, and ended up in a mental hospital. Well, at least that makes some of my bad days look a lot better by comparison. “Shadow Hawk Takes Flight” continues Danny’s story, with a…
Marvel isn’t likely to waste a chance at cashing in on publicity. With the Netflix series recently starting, Marvel Comics gave Iron Fist his own title again. The Kung Fu hero has recently been appearing in the Power Man and Iron Fist book, but now he’s out on his own again. Neither this book…
Last episode ended with the wrenching transition from the real world to what appears to be a recreation of the Clockworks Institute, with a few differences. Whether this is a mental construct like David and Syd’s “white room” or whether David restructured reality with his immense power isn’t wholly clear (like a lot of this…
Netflix’s fourth Marvel hero series begins with the debut of Iron Fist in “Snow Gives Way.” The opening is odd, with a shadowy figure doing martial arts leaving inky smears behind his moves. It looks kind of cool, but a bit odd. I can’t say I really loved the title sequence. The show opens with…
Legion Chapter 5 picks up slightly after last time left off. David and Ptonomy are carrying Kerry back to Cary, who appears care-worn. Sorry, couldn’t resist. Kerry really doesn’t look good. Although I wonder where they got the stretcher from. There’s a flurry of activity to treat her while David tells Dr. Bird he met…
