I have a split mind on this volume. The stories in it are pretty good, standalone, rather one-shot pieces of past Iron Fists. Good, but only tangentially have anything to do with Danny's main story. Good for backstory and the whole legend, but not great for keeping the pacing up.

Fortunately, the art and their tales ARE good.

Win some, lose some. I still love it all, however. :)

This volume contains some interesting filler stories: two tales of historical Iron Fists, a background tale of Orson Randall and John Aman, the Prince of Orphans, a re-colored reprint of "The Origin of Danny Rand," and a segue story into the next volume. If it sounds like something of a leftovers bag, it is, but it is mostly entertaining nonetheless. ( )
