How Agents Of SHIELD left last season I am truly excited and anxious to see how season 4 will play out with Daisy Johnson in hiding, a new director, and AIDA coming to fruition, all of this makes a fan like myself wanting to see it sooner but one must sadly wait.
Luke Cage however is different kettle of fish altogether, as I am very intrigued by the series not just because we’ve only seen a fraction of footage but how it will supposedly tackle the issues an African-American has to deal on top of being indestructible. I loved what I am seeing from all current Marvel Netflix shows be it Jessica Jones with its eery vibe to Daredevil’s demons, all of them making wishing to see more of that mini-verse of heroes.
So without a doubt, while reporting from outside of the Con, I am anticipating and wanting good things to come out of these panels and Q&A’s.
