Daredevil's mythos has been closely tied to the Hand Ninja organization for decades now. It makes sense because Daredevil received ninja training from Master Stick. Daredevil even led the organization for a little while. The Hand are a great part of the Daredevil mythos because they come across as a cut above your average mooks.

Were Marvel to continue developing the Power Man and Iron Fist mythologies, I think it would be a great idea to give them higher caliber mooks as well.

Power Man is a hero with a science related origin, so the science-based A.I.M. organization would be his most natural analogue to the Hand. I could see the organization enhancing Power Man's mythology by elaborating on his background as well.

Iron Fist is a hero with a mystical origin, so the occult-focused Hydra organization could easily be his version of the Hand.

Thoughts?

I like your thinking and I believe it could work. I am more into seeing the Hand get involved above the others as we've seen an incarnation of them on the films. I also see the possibility of Fisk being heavily involved.

I am taking it that the Defenders would focus on a street level super hero team, besides what it usually was in the comics, in which they dealt with super natural threats? That's the only thing that confuses me.

Yeah, I think the Netflix Defenders will be the New Avengers under a different name.

@captain13: I was thinking who else should be on the Defenders in Netflix series that are not Avengers.I'm thinking Ghost Rider maybe Punisher or Winter Soldier

Ghost Rider may be too expensive, we'll find out soon enough if Marvel wants to only use Winter Soldier for the films, and Punisher kills, which I imagine the other heroes would not be okay with. It would be cool to see Punisher and Blade team up though.

Well they did say that they have a 200 million dollars budget so I guess I wasn't thinking of that. How bout Black Panther,though I think he might be better off with a movie

Agreed. I think Black Panther is film bound.

The $200 million budget is for all 5 shows combined.

True but they should be able to save a lot of money since the heroes they choose for the show's powers shouldn't be that expensive to do.I think they can pull off Ghost Rider

I can definitely see Misty Knight and Colleen Wing making appearances.

I can also see Kingpin being the ultimate baddie for all four of the main heroes.
