    Primarily I want to know about Luke Cage Noir and Iron Man Noir. If anyone has read them, what they think about it and if either is worth getting? Also, if these two are horrible then what is your favorite Noir title?

    Luke Cage and Wolverine could actually have been or still be made into noir movies they are that good.

     

    Spider-man,Daredevil, and Punisher were more like elseworlds in that they really just moved then to the 30's and 40's but they were real fun reads.

     

    X-Men was really good. They really changed it up. and Wolverine in those books is not the same person as Noir Wolverine

     

    Iron-man Noir is really neat if you have ever seen or read any old pulp stuff.

     

    The only one i have not read is Deadpool Pulp

    I thought Luke Cage would be a perfect fit for that medium. Not sure why there is even a need for Daredevil Noir because it's already like Noir but then again it should be a perfect opportunity to tell an out of continuity story. I'm going to check some of these out starting with Luke Cage and Iron Man. Thank you all for sharing your opinions!

    Wolverine's and Spider-Man's are the only ones I've read. But I liked both of those,

    Luke Cage Noir was brilliant more like a oscar-winning movie than a graphic novel it was marvellous.
