Tuesday Nighty Tighty-Whities: Caged Heat

Who's the black Power Man who's a love machine to Jessica Jones?

Cage!

That dude Cage is one bad m...

Watch yo' mouf!

I was just gonna say that Luke Cage is bad at Monopoly! Sheesh.

Anyway, I think we are all in agreement: Luke Cage, Power Man, rocks every world he's in. Even if he's not in his classic ultra-seventies costume...and all he's wearing is a pair of tighty-whities and hoppin' around on one foot in front of a client. Now that's something Spenser never did.

No wonder Hugo Strange is mopping his brow...that's just too much Luke Cage for the normal mind to comprehend.

Of course, we all know it don't matter whether our cool-handed pal Luke has pants on or not...because really, he's not fully dressed until he puts on his headdress:

PM/IF #111


So, whether you're Power Girl in the DC Universe...

Power Girl #8

...or Power Man in the Marvel Universe...

Luke Cage #27


...it apparently don't hurt your career to unbutton a few buttons on your shirt. Thank goodness that's not true of Professor Power, huh?

Nomad #3

Isn't that right, Jessica Jones?

Alias #6


Well, glad we cleared that up.
