The 8 Best Characters Of Luke Cage

A big part of the success of Marvel's Netflix TV series is due to how great the characters are. It has been said before, but these shows are in effect 13-hour movies, which allows for a deeper look at the main players than in, say, The Avengers films. Think Matt Murdock with his conscience split between his vigilantism and his catholic faith. Or Jessica and her post-traumatic stress disorder.

On the comic book page, Misty Knight is a kung-fu practicing private eye and ally of Power Man. Oh, and she has a bionic arm. In Luke Cage, however, Misty is a talented detective (completely with Sherlock-like ‘Misty- Vision’) who is out to bring down the unbreakable vigilante. It’s a big change, but thankfully it only makes the character more interesting.

In essence, Misty fills the role of an antagonist, as her and Luke are definitely not on the same side. Despite this, the pair really want the same thing. To rid Harlem of the crime and corruption it is riddled with. As such, she’s basically the secondary protagonist on the show who is only doing what she believes is right. That the law is everything.
