At IGN.com, Jesse Schedeen puts together a solid guide to The Immortal Iron Fist, and solicits information from series co-writer Matt Fraction.
“There’s very little darkness in Danny,” Fraction says. “There’s certainly a degree of alienation, and a ‘fish out of water/stranger in a strange land’ element to him. Compare that to Batman, who’s absolutely wracked and tortured by the death of his parents and can’t grow beyond where he was as a nine-year-old boy. Danny connects with a love of life that a lot of the more dark superheroes don’t have.”

Translation: Danny’s girlfriend is going to get raped, and/or he’s going to die and get replaced by a broody teen.

I sure hope your wrong on that! LOL
IF has been 1 of my fav characters since I started reading him back in the late 70′s/early 80′s. I love Brubaker’s take on the whole mythos. Its nice to see him get the attention he deserves.
