This run has some great art, fight scenes, plot, and even a bit of humor. It's one of the best written I've read in quite a while, and I'm distressed that it may not last long considering that Danny isn't exactly Marvel's most popular child.
So....
Go buy it. You won't regret it.
As for anyone who DOES read it; am I the only one who found the whole elevator thing hilarious?
I did 🙂

My shop is holding most of the issues for me, but i'm holding off on buying them for now, until I can track down a copy of #2 online 😬But, I read the first issue and if was f*cking awesome ✅
It's Iron Fist written how he should be, unlike in NA, where he is basically just a background character, who Bendis doesn't ever use because he would rather have Luke Cage try to act like he can actually lead a team
You mean not using him like not showing how he's a public figure and still a hero? Or by not showing him as the only hero (other than Luke) out in public? Or by not having him be the one to present the Echo problem to the team?
Come on, Danny has his own series so he doesn't need to be front and center like some of the other characters. Danny has had more face time than even Jessica Drew who everyone knows is a favorite of his. If your going to hate then at least have it make some sense.
Wow.
Matt may be able to buy a few buildings, but none on trhe level of Rand. Danny is much much wealthier than Matt. Much more. Also, like Rand says, he has to run cause he doesnt fly. He doesnt swing via grappling hook like Daredevil either.
Im reading the series and like it as well. I always thought Danny was the last of his kind. How many more Iron Fists are there?
Another thing i like is the fact that Danny is the new White Tigers uncle while Matt is sorta her trainer/mentor. Im just waiting for the issue where the 3 team-up and kick some ass.

Honestly, Bendis needs to stop focusing on Wolverine and Spider-Man (because who gives two sh*ts about them being on the team anyway?) and start giving Jessica and Danny some more importance in the book.
And after reading the latest issue all I can say is that i'm really starting to hate Luke Cage, seriously it was cool when Bendis brought him back a couple of years ago, but now its just getting annoying how Cage thinks anybody actually takes his opinion seriously

Hmm, I guess. Personally I'm glad he's doing something with Logan cause considering his experience should really be invaluable to a team like this. I like how he's been sort of "guiding" Cage in terms of leadership. I like this version much better than the Logan he was writing pre-CW who basically just laid around the Tower eating.
Spider-Man just is really the voice of reason here. He jokes most of the time, but he's the "purest" as far as the team goes. He doesn't think he's doing the right thing then he's gonna speak up.
As for Cage, what do expect? He's the leader. He thinks there's something funny going on and wants to find out and he's voiced that to the team. As the leader you're going to have to get used to him speaking more often.
Jessica Drew had her spotlight issues already. When the time comes I'm sure we'll get more of her.

Whatever, but as far as I can tell, any character that joins the team, automatically falls to Bendis' crap writing.
Seriously, Hawkeye is the only REAL avenger on the team and Bendis' has him saying stuff like "I'm not Hawkeye anymore"?!?! Hawkeye would NEVER let some 17 year old chick who knows how to use a bow, use his name.
And why the hell is Cage still doing acting like he runs the team when Hawkeye back?!? Seriously, Clint lead the Thunderbolts and the Avengers (West Coast), so it's complete crap that Marvel is now saying that some street thug, now is more credible to lead the "Avengers" than a guy who has been one of Cap's best friends for over a decade

Um, you do realise that Clint has abandoned his Hawkeye guise before Bendis ever came along right 😕

Well Clint was following Cage's lead during the HoM so I see no reason why he wouldn't defer to Cage now
