“When Slays the Scimitar!”

In "When Slays the Scimitar!", Iron Fist returns to London with a mission: find Colleen, only to stumble into a deadly trap. With Chris Claremont’s sharp storytelling and John Byrne’s dynamic art bringing the action to life, the hero faces off against Walker’s gang, uncovers a gruesome discovery, and confronts the sinister influence of Master Kahn—while Colleen, now under Angar’s control, turns against him. The cover by Gil Kane and Dan Adkins captures the tension perfectly.
