The superhero series developed by Cheo Hodari Coker exists in the same Marvel Cinematic Universe as the Avengers movies, but is more closely tied to fellow Netflix Originals Daredevil and Jessica Jones. Because we're so excited about the show, we're going to recap each episode every hour as we go through and watch: you can check out our recap of the premiere, episode 2, episode 3, episode 4, episode 5, episode 6, episode 7, episode 8, episode 9,episode 10 and episode 11. On the run, Luke tries to track down Diamondback by manipulating the perpetually put-upon criminal Turk (Rob Morgan), making another guest appearance over from Daredevil. By the end of the episode, he's (sort of) teamed up with not just Misty, but also villains Shades (Theo Rossi) and Mariah (Alfre Woodard), who want his protection in exchange for information that could clear his original name (that would be Carl Lucas) of the crimes Diamondback framed him for. Whatever happens in the final episode, Luke Cage has managed to make incredibly powerful statements in the midst of incredibly entertaining set pieces. - The ridiculous super-suit Diamondback is wearing at the end of the episode ("What are you, a pimp stormtrooper?" quips Bobby Fish) is pretty close to Diamondback's costume from his first appearance in the comics, in Hero for Hire #1 and #2.
