He got cloning powers in Hickman's Avengers run and then he was never seen using them again.

He'll be crying about it for weeks.

When was that?

Olivia Coleman has been cast in Secret Invasion.

Was Iron Fist season 2 any good? I never bothered after the first one

During Hickman's Avengers run, think it was before the Infinity crossover.

Nice. Who else is going be in that, I've heard Captain Marvel is involved?

Nick Fury and Talos too obviously. I dont think they've announced much more than that though.

Iron Fist

God those Netflix shows were crap :lol:

Kingsley Ben-Adir is playing the lead villain but they haven't said who that will be.

No but I watched it in the hope Defenders would be worth it

What can I say, Daredevil tried his best

The trailer looks good. Very high levels of shiny CGI for a character who is mostly hand to hand. I expect trailer 2 and 3 to reveal at least 1 marvel big name cameo.

Benedict Wong is rumoured to be in it, I think because he was spotted in the city in Australia where they were filming.

Daredevil was genuinely fantastic, even the wobble with season 2 was still better than all of Iron Fist.

To be fair all of the Netflix Marvel shows had promise, it would have been nice to have seen them play out a bit longer

I loved Luke Cage S1 as it had a fantastic soundtrack and Mahershala Ali was tremendous. S2 was OK. S1 JJ was good as well and all of Daredevil was great but particularly Kingpin.

Iron Fist was wank and so was Defenders.

Luke Cage dropped fast after Ali was gone, which was a shame because it started really strongly. JJ S1 was great, but mainly for Tennant, after that it was all over the shop
