Maybe a review will generate Iron Fist feedback...

The Good:
Finding out how Wendell left K'unn L'unn (must've been a day of the 10year intersect).
Xao. This guy is fiendishly evil (in a charming way).
Confirmation that Yu-Ti is a title and that this holder is the SON of the one from IF's origin.
The honorable name calling sequence. =)
Servant Girl is going to get a name (but not until next issue it seems).
Learning "Je Je Je Je Je" is like "ALOHA" with several meanings.
Battle scars.
Seeing Thunderer's enduring battle prowess (the FSI should sign him up
).
The anticipation to see just what Steel Phoenix will do.
Seeing the bullet train used as a bullet will probably look cool!
The Bad:
The story and art were unfortunately lesser than in previous chapters. Another cover where the pic's context is strained. Repeated jokes about 4 words out of Danny's mouth. Repeated comparisons to puppets and moppets. Wendell Rand backstory with no impact connecting to story in hand - Thunderer seemed unaffected by those events. A wanting attempt(3 PAGES?!) to capture drama with Orson's fate when in hindsight it's just already been told in the last 2 months. All the exciting competitive tension 'tween each hero of the CAPITAL CITIES gone over beers and decapitation jokes. Aman's eerie presence replaced by a smile?! nb:Thor is beating Iron Fist almost 2:1 at the moment: http://www.comicboards.com/mub/view.php?trd=080324083402
The Heroes For Hire:
-Colleen, Misty & Luke still being owned (hopefully theyre just playing the plan Danny had and could escape if they wanted).
-Luke Cage barely used this issue (though Luke manages to squeeze in two quips - maybe 3 if he says "GREEEAAAT..." and not Jeryn).
-Misty calls Danny her boyfriend (if that not a big continuity snafu then logically(ala no-prize) its just her attempt at repartee/posturing to an unaware villain)
