Iron Fist 14 -- What's the big deal?

[Mishmashman]

What's the big deal about this book? I've never understood it. It's Sabretooth. Yay. I can think of at least a dozen other villains whose first appearances I'd rather own before his. Why is this considered a Bronze key? Someone please enlighten me.

Well it's a 1st appearance........ Guess that would make it a key.

[Mishmashman]

You mean as opposed to the great ARNIM ZOLA???

[AGGIEZ]

The 1st appearance of the #1 villain for the #4 comic character in the world. He's Wolverine's Joker, Lex Luthor or Green Goblin

Arnim Zola gets no love

[DrWatson]

Arnim Zola gets no love

Exactly, because, everyone at once, Arnim Zola is stupid.

Its not a huge as it once was. But, something else that pushes it is its one of the only keys in a 35 cent variant as well.

 

[gaz973]

Wolverine is one of the most popular super-heroes created and Sabretooth has been his main enemy for most of his history. It's pretty obvious really whether you like the character or not.

[rjpb]

Didn't this book initially pop 20 or so years ago when Sabretooth was supposed to be Wolverine's father? Something I gather that shifts depending on whose writing the book.

[TSwift25]

The first appearance of the main villain of arguably the third most popular character in comics.

 

I don't think there's much more to it than that.

[gaz973]

Sabretooth being possibly Wolvies father was a 90's thing that they didn't bring back again, in fact it's over 11 years since Wolverines origin was made completely known.

You mean they are not brothers?

Brothers in war...Mutant soul brothers....

Everyone is a brother or sister in the eyes of the lord but no they are not blood brothers unless they rub cuts.

Any ways this is a great Byrne and Claremont book. One of the best Iron Fist stories of the 70's. The cover is well done like the Hulk #181 cover, that it draws the reader to want to pick up the book.

And where is Max Headroom today? Resigned to the 80s with his plug permanently pulled.
