Fun reimagining of a hero who was spawned in the 70s martial art fad but caught on and is used to great effect in this series and blending of action and art that works as well now as it did decades ago.

Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2010
I was sad to see Immortal Iron Fist come to a close with  Immortal Iron Fist Vol. 5: Escape from the Eighth City . It was a great series full of adventure and characters I cared about. I have to admit that Swierczynski did a great job closing the story, but I was still hungry for more.

Enter Immortal Weapons. While Danny Rand is still present in the two final tales, the enigmatic warriors from 5 of the other Capital Cities of Heaven take center stage. While these characters were touched upon in the Iron First series, most are little more than a name. This volume attempts to flesh these characters out, with varying degrees of success.

Fat Cobra starts things off with some one of the better stories. He's something like a Kung-Fu version of Marvel's Hercules, obsessed with drinking, women, and beating people up. His good nature is what makes him so likeable, but his origins are as sad as Danny's. Tiger's Beautiful Daughter and Dog Brother #1 are also enjoyable, reading like the tales of past Iron Fists in previous volumes.

The Bride of the 9 Spiders' story actually has very little to do with the character. It reads like a Lovecraftian horror tale (and a decent one at that) but the character is barely explored at all. Instead, she is treated like one of Lovecraft's creatures, something to be summoned by foolish sorcerers. A group of thieves are hired to steal The Singing Spider from a master of the occult, but things have already gone south by the time they arrive. The group discovers that the Spider's Song weakens the barriers between our world and the Bride's. The Bride finally returns to collect her spider, and departs just as quickly. While I was hoping to get more insight into the character, I still enjoyed the story, but if anything, it raises more questions than it answers.

The story of the Jon Amon, Prince of Orphans, at least features the other worldly martial artist. However, don't expect to learn where the powerful hero gained his powers from, or anything much about his motivations. He and Iron Fist must defeat a gigantic dragon and an army of 10,000 ghosts. Fun stuff, and filled with over the top action.

The volume ends with a story about Danny Rand and one of his students at the School of Thunder who gets involved in inner city gang violence. It's not bad at all, and a nice way to wrap up the volume. However, I can't recommend this book to everyone. If you're an Iron Fist junkie like myself, you'll enjoy the hell out of it. Others just getting into the series should start with earlier volumes, then decide if this is right for them or not. The volume is not necessary to the overall story of the Iron Fist, but those who skip it will be missing out on some very entertaining tales.

I chose this rating because I was not feeling that a few of the stories really were that good of the 5 immortal weapons. Fat Cobra was interesting, the horror of the Bride of Spiders was just goofy, Dog Warrior #1 was not so much about him but of how one becomes him and I just didn't care for the story, Tigers Beautiful Daughter was a Amazonian/Wonder Woman story, and Prince if Orpans was good using Danny Random which might have made the others stories better. I hoping that these were all origin stories for the 5 IMW. The Caretaker story was fine but the artwork was terrible. They need someone to tell the artist to step up his game. The characters were so dumpy looking at the end when they should have looked wet they looked like they were melting.

I loved 3/4 of the Immortal Iron Fist and this helps with the extra characters that team up with him. Great story for Fat Cobra and Dog Brother. The only one I felt left a bad taste in my mouth was with Bride of Nine Spiders. Overall this just makes the Immortal Iron Fist lore that much better.
Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2010
This was a good read but not as good as I thought it would be. Fat Cobra (the best story), Dog Brother #1 and Tiger's Beautiful Daughter are all good stories but the Bride of Nine Spiders, Prince of Orphans & Iron Fist stories are mediocre enough. I thought we would've got more back stories out of this series but that only happens in Fat Cobra and Tiger's Beautiful Daughter stories. It's not an essential read for Iron Fist fans but it will sathe your thirst momentarily for more Iron Fist stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Die Herkunft der mystischen Waffen
Reviewed in Germany on November 6, 2011
Immortal Weapons

Da mir Brubakers Daredevil-Run und auch sein Captain America-Ausgaben gut gefallen haben, hat sehr dazu beigetragen die Iron Fist-Trades zu erstehen, obwohl ich Iron Fist nur als Nebencharakter von Spidey kannte, der Kung Fu kann, und einen ordentlichen Schlag hat - mehr bis zu Brubakers Run mit Matt Fraction nicht. Diese beiden haben in Band 1-3 allerdings ein interessantes Mikrouniversum mit schönen Nebencharakteren geschaffen, das ich auch mit neuen Kreativteam nicht missen mochte.Der Krimiautor Duane Swieczynski setzte in den Trades 4 und 5 den Weg, den Brubaker begonnen hat, konsequent fort.
Quasi als Spin-Off kommt nun Immortal Weapons, ein Band, der den mystischen Waffen gewidmet ist, gegen die Iron Fist in Band 2 antreten mußte, die nun aber seine Freunde sind.
Fat Cobra, Dog Brother, Bride of nine Spiders, Prince of Orphans, Tiger's beautiful Daughter... all diese Waffen ist geben ihre Origin preis. Neben Duane Swieczynski dürfen auch noch andere Autoren zur Feder greifen, z.B. Scalped-Legende Jason Aaron und Kultautor David Lapham.
Jede Story wird von einem anderen Zeichner gestaltet, was aufgrund der Verschiedenartigkeit der Herkunft Sinn macht.
Besonders gut haben mir Aarons Version von Fat Cobra und die Iron Fist Story Caretakers gefallen, die ebenfalls im Band enthalten ist.
Immortal Weapons ist für Freunde von Martials Arts und den anderen 5 Iron Fist-Bänden unverzichtbar.
