I'd even go so far as to recommend it as a nice jumping on point for readers who are looking to get into comics. Read Full Review

Perhaps I'm just too old and crusty and familiar with narrative tropes, but this strikes me as a strictly by-the-numbers story. The plot undergoes workable complications as Shang-Chi's grandpa settles into the safe, scenery-chewing role of a mark-one nemesis. Prose and pictures are both delivered with journeyman skill -- no big faults, but not a lot of notability. For artist Marcus To in particular, this issue is good but far from his best. Of course, I could easily see rating this up a couple points if you're a fan of the protagonist or the creators. And even discounting reader love, the consistently solid, fault-free work makes this a bit more than average.
