Full spoilers for the third episode of Marvel's Luke Cage continue below.
Luke's got a lot of muscle and a lot of brains, but he does lack of subtlety. The third episode of Marvel's Luke Cage saw him take down Cottonmouth and Black Mariah's money stash in the main base of the New Harlem Renaissance, thus losing Cornell a lot of cash and connecting Mariah Dillard's name to the criminal dealings. It was an interesting choice to have Luke both decide to target Cottonmouth's "queen" in the same episode he succeeded, but it seems like it was just a way to set up a bigger war to come.
Marvel's Luke Cage is still early in Season 1, so it makes sense that showrunner Cheo Coker would ease viewers into the action. There were some intense shootouts in the first couple of episodes, but his takedown of Cottonmouth's Fort Knox was by far the biggest action sequence to date. What's compelling about Luke as a superhero is the fact he doesn't need guns or weapons or even the shield he used to defeat his enemies; he also doesn't need to kill anyone, as Misty Knight marveled. Throughout this sequence, all I could think about was how Coker told IGN in an interview that he'd never tire of seeing a bulletproof black man, and how that adds deeper meaning to seeing Luke fairly calmly walk, uninjured, through a hail of bullets.
