[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 6599696, member: 177"] That's kind of like saying Philadelphia is closer to Honolulu than Boston is. Luke Cage is not in Thor's neighborhood. Thor is the god of thunder and strength. Thor has fought the Hulk to a stalemate for an hour, and is a match for Hercules. Thor has knocked people into orbit with a single punch. I kid you not. How strong Cage is really depends on what era they are taking as their basis. Power Man has suffered significant power creep over time. In the comics originally, he could lift about 3 tons. Short-range small arms fire would not pierce his skin, but it would bruise him severely. In current comics, Cage can heft more like 25 tons, and take point-blank small arms fire without really noticing. But he's still not in Thor's league. That will depend, again, on what era of Wrecking Crew they use. At times, Spider Man, alone, could take down the crew, much less DD and three others. Do remember - they need to leave room for Daredevil to grow, and for the series to escalate. They aren't going to start with him at the top of his game, especially if you view this as an extended origin story. And that's setting aside how comic book superheroes are not generally all that consistent in terms of power levels. [/QUOTE]
