A. Rivera reviewed Luke Cage Noir by Mike Benson
Review of 'Luke Cage Noir' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
This definitely has a good hardboiled, noir feel to it. The character of Luke Cage is well suited to a story out of Prohibition-era Harlem. He has been in prison, and is now free. It seems he may get some help from an old friend who is not a big mobster, and a white man hires him to investigate a murder. But it is not all as it seems in this tale of betrayals and murder. Is someone trying to set the Power Man for a fall? In addition to a pretty good story, the art in this volume helps the story along nicely. Whether you like comics or not, if you like a good noir story, you will probably like this one.
