These are the major differences between Netflix's Iron Fist and the comic books

In the comics, Danny Rand from New York trains hard to earn the superhero status of Iron Fist in the mystical city of K'un-Lun. 

The origins of Finn Jones' character is similar, although [1] deviated from the source material slightly.

The comic book Danny Rand's parents did not die in a plane crash but were killed by their business partner Harold Meachum.

In the series Harold Meachum (David Wenham) was not involved in their death, but is under the grip of The Hand, a mysterious ninja-group of criminals.

The orphaned Danny is then taken in by a group of monks form the heavenly monastery of K'un-Lun where he was trained in mystic martial arts.

Learning under the master Lei Kung, The Thunderer, Danny rises through the ranks of K'un-Lun to earn the title of Iron Fist.

The Netflix series follows a similar origin story but slightly deviates from the source material

Dipping his hands in the molten heart of Shou-Lao the dragon, Danny can focus his life force, known as chi, into his fists.

The comic books spent more time in K'un-Lun, detailing the time that Danny spent there during his training.

But the  series never dwells too long on the monastery, offering only glimpses and recollections into the hero's past.

The series does not delve too much into Danny's training in K'un-Lun

The Iron Fist is one of Marvel's greatest martial artists and the series plays up to that claim with its intense fight scenes.

But series only touches upon the full range of powers the Iron Fist possesses in the comic books, which fans were hoping to see in live action.

Danny Rand as the Iron Fist will return to Netflix in the upcoming Defenders, which will see DareDevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist team up.

Iron Fist first came to life on the pages of Marvel's Marvel Premiere issue 15 in May 1974.
