10 Worst Things Iron Fist Has Ever Done

8. Pretending To Be Daredevil

It's a semi-universal rule that good people don't hijack the identities of their friends - unless specifically asked to, as occasionally happens in the wild world of comics.

But Iron Fist breaks this cardinal rule by dressing as Daredevil totally without the hero's permission or awareness, running around as him while the real Daredevil sits in prison. Fist's initial disguising as Daredevil was arguably pretty just - dressing as the hero to free Matt Murdock from his incarceration due to suspicion he was Daredevil.

But Rand continues to galavant as Daredevil after Murdock is freed from prison, which adds a whole new - and wholly more questionable - aspect to his disguise.

Iron Fist tells Daredevil he wasn't aware that the lawyer-turned-superhero had been freed from prison, but that only raises the question of exactly why he wasn't keeping tabs on Daredevil's whereabouts. The whole thing is supposed to seem like a nice gesture, but instead seems like a huge breach of trust on Fist's end - supported by how offended Daredevil initially is at what he has done.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
