D.W. is beautiful.





A lot of Luke's time is spent smashing things. This is him doing a very good impression of the Koolaid man.





I also appreciated this shot of him running in his undies.





I'd like to rename this series, Luke Cage: Hero Who Crashes Through Stuff





In issue #5, Luke Cage faces off against an...incredibly heavy woman that is clearly a racist trope.





I knew when I saw this cover, this issue was going to be amazing.





Luke Cage punches his way into the Baxter Building and demands the use of their jet, so he can fly to Latveria and talk to Dr. Doom.





And this is why.





I forgot to mention the part where he was hired by Dr. Doom to take down a robot alien revolt who wind up recruiting him. Yes. Robot aliens disguised as African Americans.





Luke Cage takes no crap. BTW: he gets paid.





Another cute storyline is his romance with Dr. Claire Temple.





A v. cute page that takes place on Christmas. Luke is smooth.





I noticed that Luke had faced off against at least two Spanish villains in Hero For Hire. This is Senor Meurte. MUCHACHOS!





This is a great FUCK YEAH panel.





And this is an accountant getting attacked by a tiger.





The best thing is he wins the fight.





Yes.

I'm doing major canon review which means I'm going through his series in the 70s to right now. I've been readingthe past few days and finished it (now I'm on) and oh my god, this is the greatest title I've ever read. Or at least one of. Luke Cage escapes from Seagate prison after an experiment gives him skin of steel. He sets up shop in an old movie theatre run by his new buddy D.W.And that's all for now. The final three issues were tied to a bigger plot about Luke's past and was actually really good! I mean, ridiculous costumes and side quests aside, I love the drama and storyline inand how it all comes together in the end. Pick up the book!It's only sixteen issues before continuing undersuggested tags:char: power man/luke cagechar: dr. doom/victor von doomtitle: hero for hirepublisher: marvel comics
