In 2006, history is repeated in "Daughters of the Dragon: Samurai Bullets" as Marvel showcases the incredible talent of artist Khari Evans, who is quickly becoming a fan favorite artist due to his devastatingly awesome drawing style and gorgeous ladies.
Don't miss out on this 5 star TPB!
This whole book is like a super powered Tarantino movie with bullets, martial arts and car chases on every page. Obscure and famous Marvel characters pop up all the time as Misty and Colleen call in old markers from Iron Man, to the Mole Man and everyone in between. The Punisher gets a great and scary cameo.
Gray and Palmiotti's script is full of action and humor and quickly brings his characters to life. Khari Evans' art is a joy to see, he makes the girls strong and sexy and can draw everything from muscle cars to mole men and make them look very cool.
This limited series continued in Heroes for Hire and sets up a lot of that book's plot. It's worth picking up.
If you care about writing, the writing is shockingly bad. A cliched plot, juvenile jokes, lazy dialog.
The artist apparently uses porn magazines for reference, as the poses and painted-on costumes are remarkably... precise. The "business woman" wears a corset with a tie as office wear. The men look like they were too ugly to get work on Seinfeld, the women are all playboy bunnies. The poses are straight out of the centerfold, completely with back-breaking freakish unnatural acrobatics.
I've been reading comics my entire life, I'm a fan of Misty and Colleen, Luke and Danny but this book is an atrocity. I was so excited by the cover, hoping for a bad-ass women hero story, but the interior had no redeeming value, unless you're too young to buy real porn yet.
It's not feminist because it's female heroes and villains. It's just girl on girl action.

Basically four very low grade criminals (Humbug, 8-Ball, Whirlwind and Freezer Burn) steal important goods from a glamorous, vicious lady criminal who is on the up and is violently intent on getting her goods back. Since the four in question all have bail bonds in Knight & Wing’s name (Nightwing Restorations) the two heroes are swiftly involved. It’s a race to try and save the four, find out what they have stolen and eventually save the day.
There’s action, banter, mayhem, deaths and Misty still coming to terms with the loss of her arm in a bomb-blast. The humour moves between the sardonic and observational, the violence teeters on the edge of No! (Villain holding large prosthetic knife to baby) before settling back in adults kicking and hitting each other a lot in classic style.
The villain Ricadonna has some style and cutting verbal lines, although I do feel she might have been reading up on Emma Frost’s Style & Sophistication as Weaponry.
Misty has the grit and the street smarts, Colleen the grace and lightness of spirit, with assistance from Iron Fist, Tony Stark a reformed Humbug and the wonderfully wired and weird Otis Danger Johnson (‘Danger’ is literally his middle name).
The narrative has priceless addition supported by wonderfully deep and detailed art. A couple of examples: Humbug’s roaches listening on various lesser villains’ conversations. A gathering of villains interspersed with fist fights between a few of the crowd. Ricadonna carefully removing Colleen’s feet off of her desk as they talk. Colleen’s distraction of her sparring partner.
There was much potential here that did transform into a Heroes For Hire and had its heyday in the wake of Civil War.
A great stand-alone and worth being into any collection
A good read, entertaining, light-hearted and well-drawn. If you like the Netflix version of the characters this is a different approach, as the comics version are different people, but it is great fun. Enjoy.
