    Got to agree the MP issues are definitely hit and miss until Claremont came aboard. You know its not that exciting when you hope another Marvel hero guest stars.

    Interesting to hear the comments on the MTU issues. I don’t think it ever struck me at the time but reading it in order in the EPIC, it definitely feels like a tying up of loose plot points.

    Surprised the cover for Iron Fist #8 didn’t rate a mention. The only Byrne cover and it blew me away back in ’76. 🙂
