A Good Start

Luke Cage is here!! I've waited for this for so long,We are reintroduced to Luke Cage who was last seen in Jessica Jones.Marvel has done a great job in the casting department,Not just the movies but even they cast the right people for TV series .Mike Colter as Luke Cage fits the bill and 'Cottonmouth' played by Mahershala Ali is perhaps the most intriguing character of the show(You might call him the Kingpin of Luke Cage TV series) .We are also introduced to some other side characters like Shades,Mariah and Misty Knight .The show is laying down the groundwork for the conflict between Luke Cage and Cottonmouth.One good

thing about the show is that it is banking on its own individual story line rather than depending on Daredevil or Jessica Jones.The first episode is pretty decent but it suffers with the same sluggish pace that all the Netflix Marvel shows face but overall it is entertaining .

Good start

It was the first episode and I liked it. By far better than Jesska Jones. The actors are also very good, and Ali plays his role well.

Trivia
When Pop calls Luke Cage Power Man, that is a reference to his name in the comics.

Goofs
During the 'Hammer' weapons deal, one of the young thugs is dual-wielding Desert Eagles, this is a vary large handgun that requires a large caliber round. Shooting a single handgun of this design takes skill and practice, not to mention a good stance and grip to avoid the gun jumping out of the hand of the shooter due to the large recoil/kick back. They are also extremely loud and none of the thugs, including the shooter, seem to have any hearing difficulties after it being fired relatively close to them.
