The Trailers for Netflix's Luke Cage and Iron Fist Debut

Netflix Marvel fans can now catch a glimpse of what to expect from the forthcoming Luke Cage series. The first teaser trailer debuted and its loaded with the cool action and melodrama to be expected. The series isn't Luke Cage's debut as the character (played by Mike Colter) was a memorable supporting member of Marvel's Jessica Jones series.

The character first appeared in Marvel Comics in the early 1970's with Luke Cage: Hero for Hire, a series that started out quite good and then suffered from an uneven direction.

Cage got a silly name change to Power Man and was eventually teamed up with another character whose book was selling poorly, Iron Fist. The Power Man and Iron Fist book was a fun comic that had a decent run from the late 1970's to the mid/late 1980's.

And speaking of Iron Fist.....

Iron Fist was an underrated hero who arrived to cash in on the 1970's Kung Fu movie craze, but did not connect as well as Shang Chi, Master of Kung Fu. An Iron Fist movie first went into development well over 15 years ago, but never materialized. And then along came Netflix.
