For those who weren't here last time, Luke was put through a process to reverse the Power Man procedure, and now he doesn't have his powers.

Luke Cage driving a tiny golf cart running away from a gorilla with a human head . . . there's something you don't see every day.

I don't if it has happened but why Colleen, Misty and Luke never learned to use Ki? You would think hanging with Danny for so long he would past that knowledge on. Col using her Ki on her sword would be all kinds of awesome.

Because what Danny does isn't something that can just be taught. When he calls it "dragon's chi" he isn't being colorful, that's literally what it is. He punched into the heart of a nigh-immortal dragon until his fist absorbed its energies. THAT is what makes his fist all glowy.
Also, Colleen is the only one of those who would do that kind of formal training.

>>84066489
Ah. I see.


Still, Danny's origin is amazing in it's batshit insanity. Sure most Martial Art masters had to train to be insanely good.

Danny Rand? He trained to get that good to fist fight a Goddamn dragon, THEN put his hands into his burning heart to get his powers. Kenshiro might have 2000 years of history backing Hokuto Shinken but their masters never fought a fucking dragon.

>>84066024
Guess the artist just assumed she had an afro. I mean, most of the women in Luke Cage's comic had one, so he had a decent chance of being right.

That's the thing about the Iron Fist.

>>84066890
It was a popular look then. But I also think it's also partly that the artists didn't really know of any other natural black hairstyles. The only instance I can think of where another black hairstyle was used was that lesbian vampire story where the vampire in question had cornrows.

Was Mystique Iron Fist? I thought she and Rogue were both Ms Marvel things he ported over to X-Men.

he also claims he had plans for Sabretooth's employer to be Mr Sinister and this whole Sabretooth clone thing. (Which imo read like an attempt at a Doombot retcon for him so that the only "real" Sabretooth was the guy fucking with Wolverine on his birthdays)

She was Ms. Marvel, I was just bringing up other examples of "Claremont taking elements from other stuff he wrote and made the X-Men things".

Sabertooth, at least in these Iron Fist stories, seemed to just be a generic merc, in the sense that his boss was never important.

So I've started watching Jessica Jones, about a third of the way through. I don't like how they implemented Reva in Luke's backstory so far.

Or how Luke is being run. Actor seems pretty fitting, but bringing him in his Alias storyline as Jessica's boyfriend just feels like a misstep to me.

>>84069313
You can get away with Luke having a dull backstory in Jessica Jones because he's not the main character. Tying her into his story though, makes it iffy, because Reva's death was one of the biggest parts of Luke's conflict with Willis Stryker, along with framing him for drug dealing. Making Jessica the one who killed her would dramatically change how he'd treat her.

It's a problem I'm noticing even when I go back to some older runs.

Duffy deserves credit for not only remembering both Luke and Danny's supporting casts but also resolving their plot threads, like Thunderbolt's quest for revenge, or Colleen's father forgetting her.
