Review/plot:
A gang of Golden Tigers resurfaces in Chinatown...

...led by Chaka.

Assistant DA William Hao checks with his brother, the original Chaka, who is still in jail and knows nothing of the new leader. Iron Fist infiltrates their training school...

...and draws out the new Chaka, and Fist and Cage beat him up.

Simple! (There's a couple of sub-themes about honor that we won't get into.)

Meanwhile, Bob Diamond and Colleen Wing start to develop a pre-romance antagonistic relationship.

Comments

The Duffy/Gammill issues were the best of the whole PM/IF run, I think.

So many issues felt like filler, and, by the end, it had become very poor indeed.
