I loved the Pirate Queen of Pinghai Bay and the Fraction/Aja portions of this book...but I didn't connect as much with the Danny Rand origin story. I just felt like there was too much camp injected into an otherwise dramatic story. I found myself really missing Fraction's narrative.
Mainly one-offs and tangential stories, but good. Liked the stories about the early Iron Fists.
