Power Man and Iron Fist #2

Iron Fist rescues our young Power Man from the crazy clown villain cliff hanger he was left on last issue. But the bad guys get away from them before the cops turn up. Nice to see Iron Fist flash his Super hero ID card, glad to see that the civil war event wasn't forgotten.
Then we find that Power Man hadn't told his parents he has Powers, and is going to performing art school, the one Dazzler founded (I do love geeky crossovers) He is getting his own apartment and loads of time out of the house, to be trained by Iron Fist. While at his class he meets an attractive young lady that by all comics cliches must be the vigilante Noir, he met and fell for last issue. She is super rich and obsessed with golden age super hero paraphernalia, and lets Victor know about an old auction of objects from the past. Vic recognises the mask that they were after.
Danny Rand meets with the Ceo of the company that crime-buster worked for. They were hiring super criminals to bring in criminals and pardoning their crimes, a kind of low budget Thunderbolts I guess. Danny and Joy are applying to be guests at the auction. Ran by two of the weirdest villains I've ever seen, Heart-club-diamond and Pokerface. A guy with a harpoon through one eye. Yeah. So naturally we end with a Lady Gaga joke, "Next issue: Bad Romance". Thanks for that. Personally I would have taken it out and gone with the classic villains eye patch look.
