271 – Shadowland

Shadowland

We move onward with our Fall Netflix Comic Show Tie-ins by reading “Shadowland” by Andy Diggle. In this mini-event comic, Daredevil becomes possessed and starts to do evil things. We talked about the good points this comic misses, the random character cameos, and all the things that just don’t seem to make sense. There’s just not much here that works well. Plus, we love technology!

Our Netflix prep series rolls on with “Luke Cage: Power Man” essentials. We read issues 48-53, where Luke Cage meets Iron Fist for the first time. We talk about all the surprisingly complex themes that come up: what makes vigilantes righteous, the importance of Harlem as a setting, Misty Knight’s murderous intent, and more. Plus: we talk about dirndl shopping and boobs.
