Hi all. It's time for a new appreciation thread for Shang-Chi! Whether you have been a fan since the 1970s or just found out about him through his MCU movie, this is the place to talk about Marvel's Master of Kung Fu!

To get the ball rolling, I've begun to appreciate the bus scene from the Shang-Chi movie. The fighting, the parkour, the ingenuity of Shang, one gets a sense of that in this scene:

What comic issue is the Deodato artwork here from?

To digress a bit, anyone listened to the OST to the Film?
Different vibe, but almost as good as BP's.

Haven't heard the whole OST. However, I'm a big fan of Swae Lee's "In The Dark":

Unsure. On the previous thread, the origins of this pic were given. However, still can't recall.

Preview for next week's upcoming Shang-Chi #8:

[Tien Long]

Hi all. Just wanted to know your thoughts on this week's Shang-Chi #8. Ultimately I was satisfied with the issue. We see the family dynamics at play here among Shang-Chi, Zheng Zu, Jiangli, and Chieftain Xi. The scene with all of them in the lab had tons of drama. Felt like I was watching a Chinese soap opera. There was mistake after mistake and Shang-Chi got caught in the middle. Reading how Zheng Zu's ambitions got in the way of his family was tragic. Ultimately we see more of the underlying theme that has been brewing since Yang took over the title, that of Zheng Zu's follies and the consequences of. It's up to Shang-Chi to resolve all of these messes.

Other parts were good, but seemed to be resolved fairly quickly. Zhilan was one of them. However, it all made sense.

So far this was another great issue. It was Dike Ruan's last one (I think we'll see more of him on a bigger Marvel title or perhaps event series in the future). Looking forward to Marcus To.

Also looking forward to the next issue.

Great article where Simu Liu talks about exaggerating his martial arts skills as well as acknowledging his co-stars Tony Leung and Michelle Yeoh.
