Daughters Of The Dragon: 8 Reasons Why It Should Be Netflix's Next Marvel Series

3. It'd Be So Much Better Than Another Season Of Iron Fist

Well, that is unless the series pulls a complete 180 in terms of quality, which - if we're being honest - doesn't seem likely to happen. Either way, the prospect of seeing Misty and Colleen together, leading a shown of their own, is infinitely more appealing than having to sit through thirteen more episodes of Danny trying to convince others that he's 'The Iron Fist'.

There's no doubt that Matt, Luke and Jessica are all deserving of a series renewal, but Iron Fist - while at least commercially successful - failed to resonate with audiences in quite the same way that those other characters did. There were a few redeeming aspects of the show, as with most cinematic stinkers, but even they can be transplanted to a different series. Rosario Dawson's Claire Temple in particular is an obvious fit for a Knight-Wing drama, but even then she's been in all other Netflix shows thus far, and is consistently great in all of them.

Iron Fist faced a fierce backlash when it released in April, and, while the show does have its defenders (...), no one can deny the draw of a Dragon series, especially since it would combine the best bits from two of Netflix's Marvel series so far.
