    One more issue of David F. Walkers Luke Cage awaits us, and I am quite sad for it. The series has had its ups and downs, but I always looked forward to the latest adventures of the Power Man. This was definitely one of my favorite issues of the series for just how fun it was, and I definitely recommend it. Pick this one up. Read Full Review

    "CAGED!" felt like it could've been told in 2-3 issues max. This final chapter is the most fun this arc has been. David F. Walker deserves another shot at a team book that features Luke Cage as this series has been cancelled. Read Full Review

    Overall a solid conclusion to the Behind Bars arc. I feel a little underwhelmed at how they handled Ringmasters defeat but the action sequences were done superbly and had a really nice flow to them. Its been great following Luke on his journey home and the following issues are surely not going to disappoint. Read Full Review

    Luke gets his memory back and wallops his way through the Ringmaster's mind-control victims to shame the man himself. It's a simple story but not at all a bad one; Luke polishes it off with an impeccable moral about the special evil of forcing people to deny their true natures. Guillermo Sanna's art is also deceptively simple. This issue is mostly "Luke Cage beats up a prison," but the anatomy and posing are consistently flawless and the shading is done with notable care. The creators kick off the issue with a nice "If This Be My Destiny" homage, too.

    This issue was nothing special, but it was not bad either. The art was ok and the legacy story finally has wrapped up.
