Maybe they're relaunching Iron Fist with Colleen Wing in the role like the Netflix show and this is the build up?

Sort of. He gave up the Iron Fist to help defeat a particular villain, but instead of it being returned to him afterward, it was imbued into a dragon egg. Theoretically, Danny's off the roster and the next Iron Fist will have to wait until that dragon hatches and grows up.

Yeah, I don't think Disney gives a poo poo what happens in the comics, they'll take what they want and ignore the rest. I could see the comics taking after future plans for movies/shows if they know what's coming in order to hopefully get fans of a film to buy the comic and not get completely lost because this doesn't resemble the movie at all. But I don't think the people in charge of the movies dictate, or even encourage anything to happen in the comics.

If they'd de-aged 616 or resurrected the Ultimate version of Spider-Man right before Homecoming then I'd wonder about MCU involvement.

They brought back Ultimate Peter Parker at the very tail end of the Ultimate universe existing, but that was just to have him ride off into the sunset with Mary Jane. I'm absolutely sure Bendis knew the Ultimate line was being canceled entirely when he did that.

New demand from up high: if a Marvel character's film or TV series bombs they have to retire and/or die in the comics, even if they don't have an ongoing series at the moment.

I don't think the Iron Fist tv show even bombed, they made a second season, I think it's just the Marvel Netflix shows were originally planned well before Disney was launching their own streaming and they couldn't come into accords about going forward.

It's about time for my once per decade ban for being a consistently terrible poster.
I mean technically chi is still a thing of which he has knowledge, and the Iron Fist itself isn't the totality of supernatural martial arts. Danny without the Iron Fist is still.....like 60% the same exact character, he's just not going to be winning any fights with speeding trains.

eh, it was ultimately Netflix's decision. if the Marvel series had performed better relative to their budget, they probably would have been renewed, although I'm sure the then-impending launch of Disney+ didn't help Disney's willingness to agree to a compromise like shorter episode counts per season

She was the babysitter when Luke and Jessica Jones were on the Avengers in Bendis' later New Avengers book.

speaking of Ryan North and Halloween, his Darkhold: Iron Man one-shot from the other week was quite good imo. he should write more horror comics

Maybe this is just old man brain talking, but it seems weird to me to have her primary M.O. for fighting suddenly become a dragon chi-infused punch after she and Misty have been "Sword Girl and Bionic Arm+Gun Girl" for so long

I'm sure the Netflix stuff is some part of the equation, but, haven't Luke and Danny's prominence in general significantly shrunk with Bendis' departure? He was the big booster for characters like them and Spider-Woman

Other Iron Fists could extend the fist into weapons. Started in the Fraction era there was a pulp fiction Iron Fist who could put it in his bullets and one clearly based on Zhang Yo Sao could put it into arrows she shot.
