I think the whole point of his appearance was that he deliberately cultivated this image of "wannabe badass" so no one would see him as a real threat.

from the Luke Cage comics, Shades character allegedly had a power of some sort blasting from his eyes. somewhat similar in scope to that one Xmen guy who wore a visor and could use some sort of power ray from his eyes. However this is never explained in the Luke Cage TV show. I loved Theo Rossi in SOA. To me he did not fit right into LC and i never cared much for his character.

No, they just cut that element from the show because it doesn't fit the tone of the environment.

And besides, what idiotic douche would wear sunglasses inside at night, rendering you basically blind? Shades, that's who.
Every time I saw him, I'd start humming Corey Hart to myself.

Dude you hit the nail on the head. On my pocast with my boys I had to rip Theo Rossi a new one and eviscerate him into dust, because this is honestly one of the worst performances I've ever seen in a legitimate television show.
