Luke Cage 1: Second Chances Paperback – January 1, 2014

This 92-93 run of Luke Cafe was amazing to read. By comparison to newer books it seems as if writers were allowed far more in terms of text and script in order to develop their characters. The art Work combined with these scripts came together to make larger than life characters that resemble larger than life heroes of the neighborhood much like Like Cage is made out to be in this book. The problem with the character however comes with his rogues gallery and his stereotypical portrayal of what a black man in the 90's was. The best part of this book for me however was the end. Not because it ended but because the character himself speaks into the 4th wall and touches on his own history publication wise as well as its importance. This reminded me of the importance and value of black heroes and heroes of color in comics but also that it's been a uphill battle for them to get recognition and be given due value. That alone made the book worth it aside seeing someone that looks like me in physical form.

This book is definitely worth the pick up if you're interested in the character Luke Cage or just want something fun to read.
