John please correct me if I am wrong, but as far as regular villains, I did not believe Iron Fist had any. Iron Fist fought many different heroes (for mistaken reasons) and foes, but none were really recurring. Some may have shown in a couple of early issues, like Khumbala Bey and Steel Serpent, but they were not always there to haunt Iron Fist. Now, The H'ylthri were the "sworn enemies of K'un-Lun", but they also did not appear much. Hope that helps! Best...

Thanks Scott. It's great to see such dedication in one character and that we all have diverse tastes. It keeps JB busy and us entertained. As I say i'm rather ignorant of Iron Fist, is his power limited to one hand. He is a striking figure, a product of his era - I assume the 70's.

Wasn't Sabretooth (JB's original 'lean 'n mean' version) originally an opponent of Mr. Rand? I can recall a cover ("You're snowblind, hero!") which was (I think) Sabretooth's first appearance.

edited to add - Sorry to cut in there, I posted only to realise there was a question for JB. My goof.

I found a copy of that IRON FIST issue in the quarter bin a few years ago, believe it or not.  The cover looks like it was drenched in soup and then used as a diaper, but the pages are in pretty good shape.  And, more to the point, it's a great read.

Stuart, the Iron Fist is something that requires a degree of control - it is literally summoned.  Others who have wielded the Iron Fist (trying not to spoiler here) have been drawn manifesting the power in both hands, but I don't believe Daniel Rand, the true master of the Fist, has ever done it that way.

If I had cash to spare I would get me a Colossus vs. Juggernaut (or Gladiator) commission.  So if any of you buyers out there want to steal my idea I would love to see it happen ;)

It was only very recently that I learned that Al Milgrom drew the cover of AF#14 - I always assumed it was Cockrum, since he had done most of JB's IF covers, and it looked like his style.
