he does a stint as the brash superhero in the yellow tunic, then completely retires from superheroics, later marrying Reba and running a bar.
The experiment that gave him super strong skin could also retard aging.
That way we could have gotten classic Luke Cage and his campy villains, as well as a mellow, modern Luke Cage.
I know that Luke Cage having slowed aging isn't in the comics, but half the stuff in the Netflix series is new material anyway.
Due to the lack of moderators, trolls can ruin the IMDB message boards. Don't feed them.

Well, once he hooks up with Iron Fist and the like, I'm sure he's going to more fully embrace being a "superhero".

It didn't feel like a superhero show to me. Luke was great and the guy that played him but that was it. They could literally have made a cop show about it without a "superhero" and the result would have been pretty much the same. That's how little I felt about the impact of Luke Cage. I get it, they wanted to create a down to earth "modern" superhero not wearing a costume and what not. But then what's the point?

I would like more veteran aged marvel heroes too.
That would have worked but could of , should of , would of.
