Depois da confirmação ontem de que as séries de Gavião Arqueiro e Homem de Gelo serão canceladas em março, agora a Marvel Comics oficializa o fim de Luke Cage. A edição 10, de fevereiro, será a última. O roteirista David Walker deu a notícia no Twitter e disse que o motivo foram as baixas vendas:
Sad but true...LUKE CAGE (the comic book, not the TV series) has been cancelled. Issue #10 is the last (and best) of the series. Oh well, on to other adventures. Thanks to everyone who supported the series.

Walker já escrevia Luke Cage desde a também finada série Power Man and Iron Fist, que acabou neste ano - leia a nossa crítica dessa série.
Time to get real...LUKE CAGE was cancelled because it sold poorly. VERY poorly. There are various factors that contributed to those poor sales, but they all add up to the same conclusion.
