Fantastic Noir book. Luke is having a moment right now, and this piece of it is worth reading.
This was fine. It does well fusing hard boiled noir trappings and 30s prohibition era with the Marvel universe, it just didn't make much of an impression. I only read it yesterday and I've already forgotten most of what happened. It's far from a bad read, just mostly unremarkable.
I ADORE Jessica Jones. I never heard much about the superheroine until the television series. Since then, I have been OBSESSED. I want to own all of the novel that involve Jessica. But I haven't been able to get my hands on one, so when I found this Luke Cage graphic novel at my local bookstore, I was ecstatic. Any character who was present in Jessica Jones' life is an interest to me. (And I just learned he's getting his own show! *happy dance*)
Luke Cage Noir was an excellent exploration into Cage's background. I was able to see elements of his origin and where is has taken him now. But I was hoping for more clarity and information on his past. I enjoyed reading about him solving this murder case, but I wanted to know more about him. Also, I found myself a bit confused at times with the development of the panels. It felt a little choppy and lacked fluidity with the storytelling.
Still, this was a quick read I devoured in one sitting. I would love to read more about Luke Cage, especially if Jessica Jones gets involved. Because THOSE will be the fun adventures.
