Bill vs. The MCU: Defenders Disassembled - Luke Cage S2

Hello and welcome to Bill vs the MCU! Each month your hosts⁠⁠
Pop Break Podcasting Director Alex Marcus⁠⁠
and⁠⁠ Pop Break Editor in Chief Bill Bodkin⁠⁠
are taking another step into the wider Marvel Multiverse as the
MCU dives deeper into their Multiverse Saga.


Bill & Alex spent all of 2022 rewatching the first four
phases of the MCU, and they just spent 2023 covering the first
phase of Netflix’s The Defenders Saga and the first four seasons
of ABC’s Agents of SHIELD. This year, they journeyed into Fox’s
X-Verse with their X-Treme X-Watch.


Now they are back with their Defenders Disassembled miniseries,
where they take a tour through all the final seasons of every
Marvel Netflix series as they get ready for the triumphant return
of Matt, Karen, Foggy, and Frank in Daredevil: Born Again this
spring. 


Part 2 of their coverage has been a bit delayed, as they took
some time to review Deadpool & Wolverine, react to the
shocking news that RDJ will be playing Doctor Doom in 2026’s
Avengers: Doomsday, and Bill took a much needed trip to
Disneyland!


First, check out Bill’s walk through of everything he experienced
at Avengers Campus during his Disneyland trip. Then, stick around
for an in depth discussion of the criminally underrated second
and, sadly, final season of Luke Cage, wherein Luke’s morality is
tested as his personal relationships feel the strain of his
vigilante life and Harlem is overrun by a bitter family feud
between Alfre Woodard’s Mariah Stokes Dillion and Bushmaster, the
leader of a Jamaican crime family. 



Watch along with us! Next episode’s title is Iron Fist S2
(available to stream on⁠
⁠Disney+⁠⁠), which will be covered in
our episode later this month.
