    “Probably the ancestry of the Rush Hour movies was, Jackie Chan read Power Man & Iron Fist and loved it,” said PM&IF writer Jo Duffy. “And he basically said he’d like to star in an American comic book with a character like Luke Cage. So somebody higher up [at Marvel] was like, ‘Oh, let’s kill Iron Fist and put Jackie Chan in the comic.’ I said, ‘Well, that’s an incredibly stupid idea. We don’t own Jackie Chan; we do own Iron Fist, and he’s a great character.’ But before I knew it, somebody else on the editorial side had written a treatment for killing Iron Fist and bringing in Jackie Chan.”
