I dunno, Power Man and Iron Fist Danny isn't really as badass as other versions, being the comedy buddy sidekick in this obvious Lethal Weapon spoof series.
John Ostrander or Christopher Priest would have had Danny solo this entire team.

Yeah, but who knows if it was the same BT. Danny Rand actually met him before, and they didn't awknowledge that prior meeting. And as tough as Danny is, Carlos is pretty durable... Spidey couldn't even slow him down, and being engulfed in flames and getting riddled with bullets through the chest was a minor inconvience to him. At the least, it should have taken an Iron Fist to put him out.
And outside of that fight, Danny's kind of gotten thrown around a lot, and let Cage take center stage against the likes of Tombstone..

The way he's rubbing his head, he definately felt it. But it's impressive he wasn't laid out. (Disagree on this being an Iron Fist book, though. The original Power Man and Iron Fist main writer had Danny job pretty hard, with guest/secondary writers making up the difference. And I get the feeling this writer is more of a Cage fan, judging by Danny being comedy relief so far...)
How powerful is Puck supposed to be? Cage level, or higher?

The punch went through the bars and hit Puck's chest. Or that's what it looks like in the art. I can't see the bars providing much defense regardless. In fact it's basically incinerated in the next panel.
Well, considering even Rhino, Firelord, Masterson, or Fixit can't tank Spidey's blitz like Carlos could.. Or, dare I say it, Scorpion (Remember when Cage fought him? )
Seriously though, the only other quasi street/meta character I could think of with that level of damage soak is Gorgon. Bullets, explosions, and Spider-fist's didn't even slow him down.

As far as I know, he only had about four appearences total before now. There was one where he was simply a mastermind/onlooker against Spidey, and of course the Brubaker Daredevil run, where he has some of his best feats (And also got taken down with a sword through the back, but that was kind of planned..)
Far as I'm concerned, nothing really shows this writer has any interest in kung fu fighting, because the choreography and technique just isn't there. Danny's just a guy with a magic fist, basically.
Hell, I doubt he even knows much about BT outside of making a cameo in Bru's run..
I still love this series so far, but I'd take it all with a grain of salt.
