Here repartee with Carol Danvers is really good, and her relationship with Luke Cage is the best superhero relationship of the Big Two.           The beginning of the issue is a text dump that's difficult to get through There are six straight pages of thought captions and the same art of faces repeated across the six[...]

Review of The Defenders #6 from Marvel Comics by Brian Michael Bendis, David Marquez and Justin Ponsor, coming out October 11th 2017

Review of Defenders #5 from Marvel Comics by Brian Michael Bendis, David Marquez and Justin Ponsor, keeps the Netflix series tone alive in the comics

Luke Cage, created in 1972 by Archie Goodwin and John Romita, Sr., and Danny Rand, created in 1974 by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane, had their own series on the verge of cancellation when Marvel decided in 1978 to put them into one title The two characters have been linked together for almost 40 years now,[...]

Well, dammit. The final issue of the Ta-Nehisi Coates series brings us the sort-of finale to the investigation into the death of Ezra Keith conducted by Black Panther and his "Crew" consisting of Luke Cage, Storm, Misty Knight, and Manifold. Who did it? I won't say here, but the ending of the last issue kind of told[...]

Thus far all of the shows have had very different scores and the various composers spoke to Variety about their processes. Luke Cage was praised for its amazing use of hip-hop in its music The music, which was composed by Ali Shaheed Muhammad and Adrian Younge, was looking to blend a few different styles to make[...]

Talk about tonal juxtaposition. Luke Cage was a landmark show with its unapologetic themes about life as a black man (who just happens to be bulletproof) That is some pretty heavy stuff, and people who watched Luke Cage were coming from shows that looked at the dark side of life such as Black Mirror, The Walking[...]

The order then goes Daredevil, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, with one in eight viewers being new to comic-based content. Todd Yellin, Netflix's vice president of product innovation, said: "When it comes to an individual story, they'll watch it in order But when it comes to these related kind of series, they're very different kinds of stories[...]

After watching all eight episode of the Defenders and knowing that we'll be getting new seasons of The Punisher, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist… it's time to start thinking about what Marvel/Netflix Phase 2 could really be Phase 1 was well received overall, and whether or not you liked all of the[...]

We got them for Marvel's Daredevil, Marvel's Jessica Jones, Marvel's Luke Cage, and Marvel's Iron Fist, and it gave the series a sense of connection not only to each other, but to the MCU as a whole when we'd see the Avengers Tower in the background It also helped establish the colors for each show[...]

Whereas others have taken apart a single volume or collection from a series, this will be taking the 2010 New Avengers series by Brian Michael Bendis as a whole and talking about why I like it so much. This is in part to celebrate the launch of Defenders today, as a lot of that series has[...]

Manifold is met by Black Panther, Luke Cage, Misty Knight, and Storm as the five decide what to do about the Americops and the Hydra incursion into Harlem. There are a lot of things revealed in this comic that have a lot of implications for the story itself and its relation to the real world. As such,[...]

Review: Defenders continues to be one of the most fun comics from Marvel, with some top-notch banter. However, #4 is a bit of a damp squib of an ending.

The Thunderbolts were born. I also knew that one of my dearest loves, Luke Cage, had a solo comic that was published in the '90s My love of the Power Man has been well broadcast by myself in my time here on Bleeding Cool Being interested in reading anything that has Luke Cage in it, but[...]

Now, in Luke Cage #3, he's turned his sights on Luke Cage and Warhawk. Even if Luke can survive the fight, there are a lot of things he still needs to figure out about the mystery of Dr Noah Burstein's alleged suicide, and a lot of things aren't adding up — especially things he's heard from Dr[...]

That's an interesting way of putting it, and it seems apt for the discussion. The final question asks about the color themes they used for each of the characters, i.e red for Daredevil, yellow for Luke Cage, and green for Iron Fist Ramirez says this is very deliberate, and this was their way of introducing each[...]

Apparently, this shark does play a large role in the comic. Although the panel was focused on Spider-Man, we did get a little peek into other parts of the Marvel Universe, including an upcoming comic set for October 2017 involving Luke Cage Walker, who is working on the project, said, "We will be redefining who he[...]
