Marvel Press Release

As Manhattan sits quarantined from the rest of the Marvel Universe in Spider-Island, Shang-Chi and Iron Fist will have to cut their way through a web of mystery, magic and mayhem in SPIDER-ISLAND: DEADLY HANDS OF KUNG FU #1 (of 3)! In the midst of battle, what call could be so urgent that it takes the Immortal Iron Fist and the Master of Kung Fu away from the Avengers? Beware, The Bride of Nine Spiders now stalks the streets — but is she the cause of or the key to a horrific plot than threatens to sink all of Spider-Island?

“I’ve been a fan of Shang-Chi for years, so writing SPIDER-ISLAND: DEADLY HANDS OF KUNG FU is great fun, especially as Shang himself gets spider-powers,” said Johnston. “Then just throw in a little mystery, some gothic horror, a guest appearance by Iron Fist… and more Kung Fu per page than any other Spider-Island book, guaranteed!”

Shang-Chi, Iron Fist and the Immortal Weapons enter the Marvel Universe’s darkest corners this August, only in SPIDER-ISLAND: DEADLY HANDS OF KUNG FU #1 (of 3)!
