Luke Cage Comic Series is Coming!

Did anyone else see this news yet and think FINALLY?!

Yes, it seems my boi, Luke Cage, is getting the recognition he deserves. It was announced yesterday that plans for a new solo Luke Cage ongoing comic book series from David Walker, who’s currently writing the well-received Power Man & Iron Fist series, is in the works.

Walker had this to say:

“With this book I’m trying to build off the shoulders of everything that has come before. Just as he was in the “Power Man & Iron Fist” run, he’s a bit wiser. He’s still very street-smart, but he’s also a father, a husband, and he’s been through a lot more. I’m writing him in a much more contemplative way. He’s the sort of person who’d like to figure out how to get out of a bad spot without having to resort to just throwing punches. It always seems like he has to throw punches, though, before he can figure out how to get out of a bad situation.“

The new series will see Power Man heading off to New Orleans to investigate the death of a man who was like a second-father to Luke, the same man who gave him his powers. The new series will debuted in May…Happy birthday to me!
