As I mentioned before, Shang-Chi #1 is going to a second printing (great news!) and below are 2 of the covers starring Sister Hammer! The sketch variant is 1:25. I LOVE the twist on the first...

That would be cool if Shang-Chi came into possession of some kind of mystical weapon. Though it's actually a bit closer to his character to have his body be powered up vs. a weapon since he's been...

LOVE That Phoenix Shang-Chi cover by David Nakayama.

While I totally understand those who prefer a powerless Shang-Chi, my prediction is that Shang-Chi is going to have Phoenix powers after the...

The thing that makes me wonder if Shang-Chi will stay with Phoenix powers is that in the new comic, his "deadly hands" house is supposed to represent fire. I thought that was a bit of a strange...

I dig it. For those who aren't aware, this is part of the Enter the Phoenix storyline that will be the next big Avengers event. Essentially a variety of heroes and villains in the 616 universe will...

Thanks my dude! Appreciate you sharing them in the Shang-Chi Appreciation thread!

Hey thanks so much for that feedback. I really appreciate that. Means a lot! :cool:

Haha dude I love your posts. They're so detailed and thoughtful.

Gene mentioned in our interview that the weapons were loosely inspired by the four elements of Chinese culture - Earth, Wood, Fire and Metal. So Sister Hammer is Earth, Brother Staff was wood, Sister...

What did you like particularly about those runs that stayed with you?

Like Snoop Dogg mentioned, it's hard to compare that character to a modern context. Also, I think it's hard for anyone to...

Thanks for sharing all those reviews, including my own. I'm hoping to do a more in-depth review next week after sitting with it some.

I'd disagree generally that the book was clunky though. Even...

I love Dike's work on this so much. Shang-Chi air-dropping into China is gonna be EPIC!

This was my favorite part as well. Shang-Chi has always been portrayed as talking like a fortune cookie. I love that Gene addressed that so deftly and quickly in a way that makes so much sense too!

Hey guys - since Shang-Chi #1 drops today, I thought you might appreciate my extensive coverage of the book. As an Asian-American writer and a huge fan of Gene Luen Yang, I'm extremely hyped for the...

Really appreciate you reading it! Gene is the perfect writer for Shang-Chi!

THANK YOU for sharing my interview! I just posted an interview with Shang-Chi artist Philip Tan:
