Previews for Heroes for Hire show that Shang is with that team.

Originally this character is called just Midnight. He was not called Midnight Sun until after his resurrection. The character was NOT mute, so the mute reference was deleted (See Special Marvel Edition #16) FrankWilliams 09:22, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
I've read many Shang-Chi issues. Apart from calling Shang-Chi 'Chinaman', Tarr has exhibited absolutely no racist attitudes. And even then, come on. When you help save the world from evil cultists, don't you get some leeway in ribbing your best friend? In short, I think the Tarr section should be toned down. Lots42 02:45, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
Can't anyone post a better picture? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.238.78.199 ( talk) 01:41, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
Nowhere is it mentioned that during the entire run of the series, Shang-Chi is always colored orange. Leiko was not. Unpleasant though it may be, this should be addressed as Marvel did such a poor job depicting non-white races, and foolishly dipped into "orange" for their Asian character. Jury's out as to whether this was better than the extreme pale yellow used for Fu-Manchu and Yellow Claw. 72.42.186.94 ( talk) 04:09, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
There seems to be a fairly clear and easy dividing line in the current version of the article between the character of Shang-Chi, and the first title he appeared in. I think it's worth having a separation as we can look at the title as its own work, and the character who has taken on a life of his own beyond the original series. 73.168.15.161 ( talk) 00:48, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
article mentions that new film is to have an asian director.
ummm....isn't it more important that the character is to be FEMALE now? 173.9.95.217 ( talk) 18:37, 5 December 2018 (UTC)
Either the characters are incorrect, the translation is incorrect, or someone purposely included an incorrect translation of the characters as they are written now.
In the beginning of the episode "Wrath of the Sub-Mariner" from Spider-Man 1981 animated cartoon, a kung fu fighter very similar to Shang-Chi fights Kingpin and loses. Hyju ( talk) 18:33, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
The Chinese name of Shang-Chi should be translated as (simplified Chinese: 尚气; traditional Chinese: 尚氣), in which "尚" literally translates to "encourage", "worship" or "respect", as the ancient Chinese vocabulary " 尚武". "尚氣" is an elegant expression and extended meaning for "rising of the spirit". I think this is the reason why the official Weibo chose "尚氣", not a literal translation "上氣".
P.S. The ancient Chinese dictionaries Guangya and Shuowen Jiezi Zhu interpret the word "尚" as "尚,上也。皆積絫加高之意。義亦相通也。", which literally means "'尚' is a phonetic loan character of '上'. The two characters both mean heightened by accumulation. The meanings of two characters are also the same.". - Shiizhang ( talk) 03:22, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

– the 2021 movie Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings gets 25000 views a day and this page gets 3000 but I believe people are looking for the movie. As there is a separate article for the film character, a soundtrack, a film, and the Marvel character, I thinka disambiguation page is warranted for "Shang-Chi". There will be sequels and possibly spin-off series in the future, so this will help readers find what they want although most readers are most likely looking for the film.
