I will forever love this duo and I treasure every series when they are in the spotlight. They have such a fun dynamic and I wish there were more series just dedicated to their adventures. This was a lot of fun and I absolutely enjoyed it. I hope for more of this epic duo in the future.

Yikes... I felt like giving this a more generous rating because the art isn't terrible like the last Daughters of the Dragon series but the dialogue just reminds me of the fact that Marvel still won't give female writers a chance to write these two. Not only does it read like it was clearly written by an older man, the Bechdel test comment when Misty and Colleen are talking about dating just made me wonder who the intended audience is? I can't imagine it was women.

Misty and Colleen are classic Marvel characters and they deserve a series that reflects that.

This was fun! Mackay is a pretty good writer and his current work on Marvel is very good, so I'm glad to see that he has been good for quite a while. The art and colors work great and overall, this is a nice buddy cop arc between two characters who deserve to be more on the spotlight.

I want there to be a great Daughters of the Dragon story but this collection isn't as effective as the mini series from the middle of last decade or some of the older stand alone and Iron Fist stories. Part of what holds it back is a lack of context the book drops us in with but part of it does come down to writing.
