[[File:ImmortalIronFistV1-22.jpg|thumb|right|260px|The Immortal Weapons in Immortal Iron Fist v1 #22.]] The '''Immortal Weapons''' are an organization that feature in [[Marvel Comics]]. ==History== The Immortal Weapons were a group of skilled martial artists that were each the residents of the '''Seven Capital Cities of Heaven''' such as [[K'un-Lun (Marvel)|K'un-Lun]]. These cities only manifested on Earth every ten years but every 88 years an alignment created a cosmic convergence among them. Such a time led to the formation of the [[Heart of Heaven]] composed of each city whereby they were to battle one another in a mighty tournament. These tournaments involved battles between each of the Immortal Weapons with the victor gaining the ascendance of their city in the celestial clockwork that led to their return to Earth. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #8) Thousands of years ago, the original Immortal Weapons were responsible rounded up various demons, monsters and criminals that had plagued their people with them taking these prisoners to the newly constructed '''Eighth City'''. After completing their task, they placed a seal on the gate to that prison to ensure that none of its prisoners could escape. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #22) However, K'un-Lun's first Iron Fist '''Quan Yaozu''' had to remain behind to prevent the demons from escaping the gateway leading to his capture and torture over the centuries within the hellish Eighth City. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #25) In the [[1920]]'s, the heavenly cities merged where an Immortal Weapon was chosen to take part in the tournament. From K'un-Lun, the Iron Fist [[Orson Randall]] was chosen to participate but after serving for years outside the city he had grown tired of seeing the blood and violence. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #8) Oandall stole the book of the Iron Fists in the vain hope that the legacy would die with him after he ran away from K'un-Lun. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #5) Attempting to leave, he was confronted by his opponents who attempted to strip him of his position but Orons came to lash out leading to him killing the Crane Champion of '''K-un-Zi'''. This saw the [[Crane Mother]] swearing revenge against him with her unable to produce another warrior for the next 300 years. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #8) By the modern day, the time of the '''Tournament of Heavenly Cities''' came to pass requiring a battle between the Immortal Weapons. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #6) This saw the cities merge once again where the warriors were all called to compete. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #10) [[Steel Serpent|Davos]] came to have his powers restored by the Crane Mother where he came to be the champion for the city of K'un-Zi. (Immortal Iron Fist v1 #8) During Fear Itself, the Hammers of the [[Worthy (Marvel)|Worthy]] descended onto the Earth where they awaited wielders to awaken them. One of them landed in the '''Eighth City''' where it broke it open and released its captives to Earth. This act summoned the Immortal Weapons who were all transported there to protect the city only for them to encounter [[Titania (Marvel)|Titania]] in her form as '''Skirn: Breaker of Men'''. The Immortal Weapons battled the villains but were unable to stop the [[Absorbing Man]] from claiming the hammer in the city leading to his transformation into '''Greithoth: Breaker of Wills'''.
