The story opens with Shang-Chi and Leiko at Pavane's country house outside London, torturing one of Velcro's henchmen. The henchman breaks and tells them that his brother is another Razorfist made by Carlton Velcro to replace the first Razorfist that Shang-Chi had previously killed. He also tells them that Velcro is hiding at Marquesas Island, South Pacific.
