" LOl, where did you find this? It looks more like fan art than the real thing tho, but I've been wrong before. "
A friend emailed it to me with no explanation. I'm a huge Heroes for Hire and Blaxploitation fan, so this pick blew my mind.

Thanks for the info. I really want to see this get made. I've had a similar idea in my head for months now. I also want blaxploitation Black Lightning!

" Luke Cage doesn't wear a tiara anymore. According to that website a lot of fans like Blaxploitation Luke Cage and hate his updates? Although the writer cites older stuff which looked just as bad, does he have a point? i like the current Luke Cage. "
I didn't think the rap interpretation of Cage was any good but I like him now and in his Heroes for Hire days.
I personally like Luke Cage's new incarnation, but I'd love to see a cheesy retro take on a Heroes for Hire mini-arc. It could be like Grindhouse, Black Dynamite, or Machete. Besides, any time Iron Fist and Cage get to work together, I'm supportive. "SWEET CHRISTMAS!"
" I'd love to see a regular book with this cast but hate the looks. Unless they get hit by a disco ray I prefer their current looks. "
I think it's supposed to be set in the 70s, so I'm fine with the old costumes.

I actually kind of like Cage's old look. Yeah, it's not in style anymore, but it's classic. Plus, if you see a guy walking down the street dressed like that, you know he's the toughest guy for blocks.
