THE BOOK OF THE IRON FIST, written on parchment made from the dragon scales of Shou-Lao the Undying, tells the life stories and kung fu secrets of every man and woman to hold the mantle of the Immortal Iron Fist -- except two. One, Danny Rand, the current Iron Fist, is the possessor of this most remarkable book. The other is Orson Randall, the Golden Age Iron Fist, and all his life he remained an enigma, even while trying to outrun the Iron Fist legacy. If Danny hopes to unlock the last mysteries of the Iron Fist, he'll have to track down Orson's long-lost life story and learn his secrets before it's too late. This unique annual both enriches the current Iron Fist storyline THE SEVEN CAPITAL CITIES OF HEAVEN and serves as a perfect jumping-on point for new readers.

Today, the whole world knows him as Magneto, the most radical champion of mutant rights that mankind has ever seen. But in 1935, he was just another schoolboy - who happened to be Jewish in Nazi Germany. The definitive origin story of one of Marvel's greatest icons begins with a silver chain and a crush on a girl - and quickly turns into a harrowing struggle for survival against the inexorable machinery of Hitler's Final Solution. From "X-Men: Phoenix - Endsong" writer Greg Pak and award-winning artist Carmine Di Giandomenico.

The latest from the Marvel Knights line! The definitive origin story of one of Marvel's greatest icons continues as young Magneto, a Jewish boy in Hitler's Germany, travels to Berlin with his father in a desperate attempt to secure protection from the Nazi menace. What new rules and skills must father and son learn to survive in this insane new world? And will those lessons be enough to save their family on the Night of Broken Glass?

The harrowing saga of young Magneto's struggle to save his family from the Nazi onslaught continues as the German army invades Poland - and our hero learns brutal new lessons and discovers new strength within himself. But even with all of his hard-won smarts and developing skills, how can one boy fight against the horrors of the Warsaw ghetto and the killing winter of 1941? It's a poignant Marvel Knights take on the life of a young Magneto, by Greg Pak (WORLD WAR HULK) and Carmine Di Diandomenico (DAREDEVIL: BATTLIN' JACK MURDOCK).

The Poles called the little town Oswiecim... but the conquering Nazis have given it a new name. Now the young man who will eventually become Magneto faces the most unfathomable horrors of his life within the death camp known as Auschwitz-Birkenau. Whose familiar face will greet him? What will it take to survive? And in the face of such overwhelming inhumanity, how can our hero keep hope alive?

The boy survived Kristallnacht, the Einsatzgruppe, and the Warsaw Ghetto. But now Max Eisenhardt faces Hitler's Final Solution in the death camp known as Auschwitz-Birkenau. What will it take to endure? Who are the Sonderkommando? And will a vision of a girl named Magda bring hope - or horror? The definitive origin story of Magneto reaches its shattering conclusion.

The minute he saw the dame, Orson Randall knew he was in for a heap of hurt - all in. But he wouldn't be the hard-boiled hero he was if he didn't go sniffing after trouble. Hero? Randall stopped the laugh in his throat. Dorwned it in a slug of bourbon. Randall's no hero. 1920s Los Angeles just ain't the time or the place for a guy like that. Ain't the time or place for the Immortal Iron Fist. Orson Randall's just trying to figure out the angle. And if he has to unload his .45s to do it, so much the better. Orson Randall's just in it for the skirt.
