Episode 7 of Luke Cage.

Apparently Luke Cage got so popular so quickly that the large increase in traffic actually broke Netflix.

@Jarkes  
Awesome.

So is Hammer Tech still in business or was that that stuff acquired cheap because it’s out of business?
 
Also I wouldn’t boost about how good that stuff is since the joke in Iron Man 2 was it was shit.

@Darth Prime  
I mean when you compare it to Stark tech yeah Hammer is nothing really impressive. But Justin Hammer WAS the Number 2 recommendation for the Government’s military contracts. And that’s ACTUALLY kind of impressive and you need some serious technological chops to pull it off.

@SquiggyBomb
 
Not to mention, there was a tie-in comic leading up to Iron Man 3 that showed that the “Ex-Wife” missile Rhodey used in 2 was just a dud, and that it really is pretty powerful stuff when it actually works.

@Jarkes  
Like yeah Stark mocked Hammer relentlessly but that was just Tony’s ego showing itself. Justin Hammer was the BIGGEST competitor to Stark Industries.

Y’know what the best thing about Pop is?
 
He’s a father figure that doesn’t discourage the protagonists for being a hero.  
How novel.

@SquiggyBomb
 
so what would happen if they introduce a competent and LEGAL weapons manufacturer in the marvel universe (they don’t sell their stuff to villains and their security is top notch that stealing them is not worth the hassle)? can stark (and anyone else) point out how dangerous their stuff is with no sense of hypocrisy?

It’s been bugging my who’s playing Shades but I think that might be Norman Jayden from Heavy Rain.

“Escort the night nurse downstairs.”
 
 
HA!

my dame wifi isn’t strong enough for netflix.

Oh shit…  
I just noticed.
 
Misty just got shot in her right arm. And she just got told that there is a possibility she could lose it altogether. If she does lose and she doesn’t get a cyborg arm like in the comics Imma be sooooooooooooo mad.

for those looking more luke cage I recommend the current powerman & ironfist comic

@SquiggyBomb  
Nah I can see it.
 
“…domineering bitch we all hate to love.”

@Darth Prime  
Homegirl straight up kissed the dude in the last episode.

Lani is so fucking tsundere for Mr. Stake.

For those unaware Season 3 of The Flash starts tomorrow.

@SquiggyBomb  
ok so the preview has cisco being in better shape if the flash never existed.
 
go ahead barry, be the timmy turner!

@OptimusPrimevil  
Now this is just me. But I would rather be best friends with one of the greatest superheroes ever than be rich.

@SquiggyBomb  
let’s see first what would happen. we know that since eobard is stopped, the real harrison wells will marry tess morgan but the event that will lead to the creation of the flash will still happen (but much later in the timeline).
 
but on that subject, one hero but a crap ton of villains was made.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I just hope Hartley isn’t a villain again.  
He’s too cute to be evil.

@SquiggyBomb  
in this new timeline? maybe, maybe not.

finally getting to watch luke cage. that second episode man.
