In The Comics

After surviving rigorous training in the city of K'un-Lun following the deaths of his parents, Danny Rand completed the tasks necessary to undertake the mantle the Iron Fist, the powers that go along with the title, not to mention a bright green and yellow outfit (which looks much cooler than it sounds.) A close friend to Luke Cage, the martial arts master was a founding member of Heroes for Hire, Inc.

In The Show

Significantly more likable than he was in his solo series, the immortal Iron Fist is one of the four members of the Defenders and while he has yet to don his iconic suit from the comics, green does still seem to be his color of choice. It's also worth mentioning that TV's Iron Fist displays a shaggier look, as opposed to his more clean-cut comic book counterpart.

Also, while they may have been resentful of one another early in the series, it does seem as though he and Luke Cage have begun warming up to one another.
