Was it a mistake making him white?
>>150407587The mistake was not making him Luke Cage.
The mistake was making him in the first place
>>150407587There is nothing wrong with Danny Rand and anyone who tells you otherwise is a flaming homosexual
Wypipo don't season they karate
>>150407616Calm down Misty, you still have Slippers Lad all to yourself
It wouldn't make sense for him to be anything elseHis entire origin is based on Shangri-La, which has no basis in eastern folklore despite being placed in the Himalayas. You can't un-orientalise it.
>>150407587Marvel Rivals clowned him as the undead coalburner homo and permabenched him for a chink. A character assassination by the character's correlation. The only mistake here is keeping Luke Cage alive after Bendis turned him into a bisexual raxemix mascot character.
>>150407587The mistake was giving his show to Scott Buck and generally putting no effort into it, fueling culture warrior retards' delusions in the process.The Shitflix show was the turning point when nobody actually cared when Iron Fist showed up in adaptations to "IRON FIST WAS NEVER GOOD" whining driven by idiotic political faggotry.
>>150407587Yes it was a mistake to make him white and not also make him a racist fat inbred while they were at it.
>>150407587>Iron Fist>Can't maintain a solo>His mini/limited series also suck>His child got retcon out of existence>Got daddy and mommy issues>Was raped by his resurrected father who is now a cyborg >Is seen as Luke Cage's twink boyfriend>Generally consider an average Iron Fist to worst Iron Fist among all Iron Fists according to lore>Is currently a bootleg Moon Knight-Spawn fusion>Never had a good costume and is dressed like a gay pirate
>>150407587>>150407603>>150407609>>150407616They should have just made him into Luke's bottom and not have Jessica be a thing with Luke at all.
>>150407587Yes. Danny’s entire backstory and how it ties to K’un-L’un is really stupid. The subsequent retcons also only make it worse because there’s so much nonsensical shit involved. If you wanted Danny to be white there’s way better ways you could have done it. Orson is a good example of it.
>>150407587No. Wokescolds are wrong about everything.
>>150407587It would be racist to make every martial artist based hero Asian though
>>150409013Then make La Grenouille who uses the world's strongest fighting technique.
>>150409013Marvel barely has prominent asian martial artist heroes outside of Shang Chi
Zoomers don't know that Chuck Norris stood toe to toe with Bruce Lee, Benny Urquidez dabbed on Jackie Chan multiple times, and Jean-Claude Van Damme fought fucking Bolo Yeung.
>>150409420nigga his most infamous defeat and death on screen was by Bruce Lee
>>150409494At least Chuck was the lead in his own TV show and not the guy who drives the lead's car.
>>150407587I tried Immortal Iron Fist, but it was boring.
>>150410906Wrong
>>150407587he's white because there was a popular show called Kung-Fu at the time which starred David Carradine as an "asian guy"
>>150409567Chuck Norris? surely you mean Juck Jorris, the guy who sold elasticated jeans and jorts to fatties
>>150407819lol he got a better send off in Rivals over his comic counterpart of whom is now moonlighting as a Moon Knight expy
>>150407587I miss when it wasn't considered racist to have a white guy with a black girlfriend have magical asian kung fu superpowers.
>>150407587Didnt matter what race Iron Fist was because both white Iron Fist and Asian Iron Fist had terrible books.
>>150407587not really
>>150407587Yes. Iron Fist should had been Miles Morales.
>>150412424I pity you and your legs, all bound up like a Chinese lady's feet.
>>150407587The most memorable thing Danny Rand ever did was dying. And he couldn't even do that correctly.
>>150413654this
>>150415890yeah, only stuntmen wear elasticated jeans
>Danny appears in the comics for decades>nobody has a problem with it>Danny appears in cartoons>nobody has a problem with it>Danny appears in videogames>nobody has a problem with it>Danny appears in a shitty show made by a hack who somehow made Dexter even worse>the show is predictably bad>SURELY THIS MEANS DANNY RAND IS A BAD CHARACTER AND MARVEL SHOULD RETIRE HIM
>>150418363Go blame white liberals, aka white conservatives with some subtlety. Also funny how nobody cared about Iron Fist and suddenly claim they are fans once he got replaced.
>>150418428Personally, I've been a Heroes for Hire fan for years.The consequences of Netflix slop is my personal hell.>ruined Danny Rand in the public consciousness>doubled down on boring Bendis-style Luke>propped Jessica Jones ensuring we will never get rid of her, because for some reason people really liked that shit show
>>150417554Who else?
>>150418363>meanwhile, in NuUltimate Marvel
>he should be Asian because he knows martial artsDo you unironically believe this?
>>150419250They should've just leaned way harder in the other direction: Danny as basically an inside out banana. Some blonde white guy stumbles out of the mountains, into some Chinese hamlet, speaking in a perfect, and archaic, Chinese dialect who can punch through walls and acts like some weird monk. Maybe have some kung-fu adventures there while he's trying to figure out how to get home (not on a Netflix show budget, unfortunately). Then he gets "home" and it's a chaotic mess. He looks like the ruling class, is even owed a place in it legally, but everything he's actually familiar with outside of hazy childhood memories is either some commercialized, commodified parody of itself or hocking noodles in the ghettos. He has no idea how to act, no place to really belong to, and he needs to beat up every ninja he runs into cause the guy who killed his father thinks/knows (depending on how you want to spin the origin story) he's here for his ass.There's a real obvious fish out of water/introspective racial and cultural angle here if you wanted to do it and not just surface level appeasement signaling.
i can't even blame it. joshua luna was just too powerful.
>>150407587The fucking stupid thing is that K'un L'un is a fucking other dimension populated with weird immortals. It isn't a white guy leaning Asian martial arts, it's a white guy learning martial arts from fucking ageless aliens.
>>150407587>bring back rand iron fist>have him keep the asian kung fu mysticism>have him be straight>have him kick ass>have him do shit on his ownIs that too fucking much to ask?
>>150407587Only flaw iron fist had were those silly little slippers Otherwise great character
>>150419541>>bring back rand iron fistHe is back as an "Iron Fist">>have him keep the asian kung fu mysticismHe is now powered by Egyptian god magic>>have him be straightToo late. He is basically Luke Cage's boyfriend >>have him kick assDanny is certainly getting his ass kicked at the moment>>have him do shit on his ownImpossible. Danny is currently enslaved by Ra, aka Khonshu's father/Thor's brother and must do what he is told>Is that too fucking much to askYes
>>150407587The mistake is woketards thinking that white people being good at martial arts is somehow racist.
>>150407587>Make him white>Libtards complain that he's cultural appropriation>Make him Asian>Libtards complain that he's stereotypicalThe only solution here is to make him black.
>>150419124moms on the school run?
>>150422038Heh
Why is it okay for Moon Knight to be powered by an Egyptian god but it's not okay for Danny to do martial arts?
