Iron Fist is among a few small screen superheroes who have taken their sweet time to put their classic, comic book costumes on display. Daredevil took one entire season, Luke Cage showed his in a few flashback scenes, and Jessica Jones was alright from the beginning.
Netflix unveiled the date announcement teaser for the second season of Iron Fist on Saturday and we got to see Danny Rand aka Iron Fist in his classic yellow-mask getup.
A minute-long trailer shows Danny (Finn Jones) and Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick) walking down a footpath in the New York City. But it's not an ordinary walk. Looking at people and their activities around him triggers Danny's memories and he sees flashes of an epic battle to become K'un Lun's champion. Danny is seen getting ready to fight his fellow disciple and frenemy Davos (Sacha Dhawan) to receive the powers of Shao Lao.

Previously released images showed that Davos will get involved with bad elements of the society and speculations are rife that he will soon transform into the villainous Steel Serpent from the comic books.
Iron Fist didn't get much love from the fans when the first season dropped. He was deemed the slugger when the small screen Marvel superheroes assembled for short series of The Defender. But the character's brief appearance on Luke Cage season 2 earned some brownie points.
The next season of Iron Fist will be available for streaming on September 7 on Netflix. Then we will be able to tell if the superhero story redeems itself.
