Friday Night Fights: Luke Cage and the Triple-Aparo!

While I was still on vacation last week, Bahlactus returned with an all new round of Friday Night Fights: Knockout!! And what’s more, he’s ramping things up by giving away a hardcover from his collection to the hardest hit every week!

Or, to put it another way:

 

Black is back, all in, we’re gonna win!
Check it out! Yeah y’all, come on,
HERE WE GO AGAIN!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Luke Cage wrecks the crap out of a gang of muggers in the pages of Power Man and Iron Fist #78. And while that’s not one of the issues collected in the disturbingly ROM-free Essential volume, there’s plenty of fightin’ in there to be getting along with.

    No one beats on a brother in yellow silk…and gets away with it.

    Fight the power!

    Anyone running around in a yellow silk shirt and a tiara in that part of town is obviously the baddest mofo on the planet.

    And he’s also smart enough not to charge the Hulk, too. *cackles*

    “G-uuuhh”

    Succinctly put.

    My slimy friends and I applaud your comedy.

  6. Jeff says:

    Are those the parts of the boombox surrounding Luke in panel three? It looks like it nearly disintegrated upon impact! The guy with the slimy friends must be mutants!

  7. Alan says:

    sweet..I always wondered where that move in Ultimate Alliance came from.

  8. Rich says:

    Of course Luke is too smart to charge the Hulk. They used to use the same tailor, you know.

  9. Matt says:

    I really want to do that. Right now.

    That is probably the most awesome thing I will see all day.

    Scratch that. That is definitely the most awesome thing I’ve seen all year.

    I’m thinking the guy Cage uses as a bat (bat-man?) is getting less head/torso damage there, and a lot more leg damage.

    If I ever am able to swing a human being around like a bat, hitting multiple other people while swinging said human being, I will immediately commit suicide afterwards. There would be no possibility of my life ever getting any better than that.

    The Powerman explodes into action!

  14. Peppy says:

    Luke Cage learned to fight from Batman, I see.

    While I wouldn’t commit suicide, not a day would go by where I wouldn’t find someone to swing around as a human club. I’d probably get a habit of doing it once in the morning, and then again after lunch.

    That last shot reminds me of Tex Cobb’s response to a reporter who’d asked him if he’d ever been knocked down. “Once, by a 120-pound Mexican. Someone was swinging him by the heels.”
