Summary
word of advice : arrest pamperer for Amazing Spider - Man # 44!TheMCUhas adapted a capital phone number of classicMarvel Comicsheroes and villain , but it seems not all of them are create every bit . Indeed , there ’s one evenhandedly recent addition to the MCU who has fallen on some fairly intemperate time in the comedian recently in terms of their reputation . And now , after their former team - up adventure , this MCU character has officially become Marvel ’s most disrespected hero ( right there alongside someone who ’s antecedently hold that form of address for some clip ) .
InAmazing Spider - Man#44 by Zeb Wells and John Romita Jr. ,theGang Wareventcomes to a violent close , as all the warring gang of New York - and the heroes essay to make peace between them - have one final battle to decide which gang will take over the city ’s Scheol . In the last , the heroes gain ground , and the criminal syndicate disperse to lick their wound , ensuring that they wo n’t cause much bother for the foreseeable hereafter . However , there were two heroes who were right smart more wound ( on every level ) than any of the villains : Iron Fist and Shang - Chi .
Danny Rand and Shang - Chi are never featured fight back a individual enemy throughout this climactic struggle . However , they do show up on - panel after the fighting is over , battered and bruised . In a mo that was hilariously meta , the more conspicuously featured heroes ( Spider - Man , She - Hulk , Daredevil ) ask where Rand and Shang were that whole time , and both are baffle and insulted by the lack of recognition .
Marvel Comics is right in the midriff of the epic street - level outcome Gang War , during which it ’s revealed that Shang - Chi is no longer a Marvel hero sandwich .
Shang-Chi’s Heroic Reputation in Marvel Comics Canon Continues to Spiral
Shang-Chi is barely even considered a hero anymore in Marvel Comics!
Shang - Chi ’s more late development in Marvel Comics canyon has painted him as more of a virtuously ambiguous antihero than a Greco-Roman superhero . While he imagine his natural action are heroic , Shang - Chi is very much caught in a state of ‘ end justifying the means ’ . Shang - Chi is the drawing card of the Five Weapons Society - a crowd of criminals formed by his father who presently rule over Chinatown in New York City . Shang operate on outside the legal philosophy - like all superhero vigilantes - but his alliance with and leadership over a known crime crime syndicate make him a bit less licit .
IfGang Wardid anything , it examine that the other heroes do n’t trust Shang - Chi , even if they ’re willing to bring with him to take down a larger threat . In Shang - Chi’sDeadly Hands of Kung Fu : Gang Wartie - in books , Spider - Man and the rest reckon Shang - Chi an actual baddie , and even sought to take Shang - Chi down . And now , Shang - Chi ’s character has taken yet another hit , only this time , it was on a meta level that made him feel insignificant , as opposed to just unheroic , as his current story electric arc suggest .
Shang-Chi is as Disrespected in Marvel Comics as Iron Fist was in the MCU
It ’s interesting that Shang - Chi is pair with Danny Rand for this particular insult inGang War , as Shang is ostensibly face the same level of disrespect in Marvel Comics as Iron Fist did in the MCU . Even before the Netflix / Marvel Universe was officially included in the MCU , complaints were made by fans about every single aspect of theIron Fistseries , making Danny Rand one of the most hat character in the MCU . And now , the same thing is happening to Shang - Chi within the Marvel Comics universe , and Danny Rand is quite literally in good order there next to him .
gratefully , fans do n’t seem to partake in the sentiment of the heroes of Marvel Comics in regard to Shang - Chi , as the fiber is more democratic in the cartoon strip now than he ’s been in years , not to cite his role in the MCU , which will only become more significant as the films come on . However , to the other superheroes ofMarvel Comics , Shang - Chi’sMCUsignificance means absolutely nothing , as he ’s officially become the most disrespected hero sandwich since the live - action mechanism Iron Fist .
