Iron Fist: Heart of the Dragon is extremely fun and exciting! Heart of the Dragon #3 continues to build the series up and tease some very interesting things to come. I love the "team" aspect of this issue and series. Hama deals with each well, while not neglecting our main character Danny Rand and continuing to build an intriguing story. The art brings the superhero action to life, with some mesmerizing dragons. Hama has also done an excellent job of involving the whole Marvel Universe adding in new and old lore alike. I am excited to read this series every time it hits the stands. Read Full Review

Iron Fist: Heart of the Dragon #3 takes readers on a trip around the world to remind everyone Marvel is all about a global hero roster. Light on plot but heavy on action and diversity, it's a good setup issue to line the chess pieces up to hit the midway mark of the arc. Read Full Review
There's simply not the space to flesh out all of these characters while having a cohesive story, and this issue suffers from that all too much. Read Full Review
This is a mostly fun issue.
It was a little more enjoyable than last issue. Its established itself as just a fun little adventure and nothing more.

Iron Fist and friends split up for some nifty team-ups as zombie-filled floating cities appear all over Earth. Dave Wachter does some cool stuff with the fight scenes. The dialogue is disappointingly stiff, though, and most of the plot progression comes from various characters passing around the "exposit what happens next" ball. I do like the guest star selection, though.
