The scene: Danny Rand, in costume, has come to visit Misty Knight's crib.
BUT Misty's roommate is Jean Grey, you see (because everybody knows everybody in the Chris Claremont universe). And Wolverine is sitting outside her apartment being a whiny stalker boy. So, inevitably:
Now, our kung fu billionaire manages to hold his own for awhile.
But Jean was going to be holding a dinner party, you see, so of course the rest of the "all new, all different" X-Men are showing up. And, being the 1970's, no one is willing to stop and talk things out. So:
Not bad, holding your own against Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Colossus.
BUT WAIT A MINUTE, you're screaming at your screen right now. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE LADIES' NIGHT!!
Oh, it is, my friends....because look who shows up next:
So she'll end this quick, right?
Uh-oh. That's not gonna go down well, is it?
So, Wolverine is finally man enough to lay hands on Iron Fist when someone else is holding him down...
So who will save the day? Well, it is Ladies' Night, after all:
Yeah, Phoenix, put 'em down!!
Even Bahlactus wouldn't throw potato salad on Storm...would he??
Heroes mistakenly fighting heroes for a whole issue comes from Iron Fist #15 (1977)...which was the last issue of IF's original run, as well as (I believe) John Byrne's first ever artwork depicting the all new, all different X-Men. And it has potato salad....
