    This Luke Cage arc was great and if you are a fan of Luke Cage or someone who just watched his Netflix series this is the trade for you. It is perfect in tone and art. Walker and Blake make for a solid team. This is not the book for those wanting the fun of the Powerman and Iron Fist series but it develops Cage as more a real character that is round and unique in the Marvel universe. This trade gets back to basics with Luke and it is a great jumping on point for any fan who wants to be on the Luke Cage bandwagon. Walker takes a light touch in exploring social issues enough that this book feels real for Cage while also making this a solid superhero story. If you have never read Luke Cage before you will leave this trade ready move forwar more
