If This, Then That

The Defender's

I feel as if we're all vigilantes in our own right. Life for most people is simply living for the time being, for others it's living and accumulating profit from a talent or skill you enjoy doing. Though some may not care about the cares of others most people use their skills and talents to inspire others to believe in what their passionate in and embrace them to achieve or to chase after there goals. Though these are ordinary people the people that I am writing about are fictional characters in a series of Netflix show's written by Marvel. They are Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Daredevil, The Punisher, And Iron Fist and they make up the marvel Netflix series The Defender's. I had a chance Last year in 2020 to watch these series since I had free time due to the pandamic. I was more intrigued by the life stories these shows depicted. Though some of these characters had special abilities they were all put in scenarios that showed how human they were and how human emotions affect our daily lives. I'll start with the Netflix series Luke Cage. Luke gained his power from a accidental experiment that he was forced to undergo in prison. Luke went back to Harlem his home town and use his newly power to help bring justice to his neighborhood. He face several obstacles in his new found journey but, most of his obstacles came from ordinary life experiences. From his relationship with his dad, a once fling with a detective and his love interest with a nurse by the name of Claire. It's a must see if you haven't and can really be soothing to see someone with super natural abilities be face with the same hardships as any regular human would go through. You can go binge that on Netflix now and see a good show you been missing. Next show is the Netflix serious Jessica Jones. I like this show because I feel I have a close connection with Jessica. Jessica Jones power came from a inheritance of Gene's from her mother. Jessica is quite a woman she means well and she loves hard. Dealing with her friend Malcolm drug addiction and helping her step sister famous news anchor Trish Walker to step out of her mother foot steps. Trish discovered how much she admired her step sister and wanted to be exactly like her though things get Rocky in the story as Jessica fight her feelings with a heavy use of alcohol and Trish and Malcolm go through there life journeys it's just another show that show no matter where your at in life we as humans face the same issues and hardships. The show also has guess appearances from Luke Cage and The Punisher. If you watch Luke Cage then you might wanna put Jessica Jones on your list of show's to binge on Netflix as well. Next show I had the pleasure to watch is The Iron Fist. It's about a billionaire son who loses his mother and father in a plan accident. His father best friend and business partner family presume Danny to be dead for 10yrs until he showed back up. Claiming to be a monk warrior with special abilities. He obtain these power's in K'un-Lun. Now back and ready to take his spot in his family business he faces problems with his childhood close friends Joy and Ward Meachum. Ward battling his alcohol addiction and Joy wanting to just found her own identity away from her family name is a must see tale. Danny also spark a love interest with a karate Dojo teacher Colleen Wing. This Netflix series is also wrap into the tales of both Luke Cage and Jessica Jones. So if you like those show's than Iron Fist would be the next show you'll wanna check out. Quick note I'm putting all these shows in order from there releases so it can make it a little easier to keep up with the stories. You will not get the whole story if you don't check out all the shows on this list. So the next show acourse is the Daredevil. A blind public attorney Matt Murdock gain his special abilities from a accident that happened when he was young which cause him to lose his eyesight. His father Jack Murdock was a passionate boxer who his son Matt look up to highly. Though Matt couldn't see his father fights he still knew the outcomes from the commentary. Jack wanting his son to be proud of him led to his demise. Leaving a ever lasting affect on Matt he found someone to help fill in his void of being lonely with a lasting connection from his college roommate and friend Froggy Nelson. They have a tight bond and honestly I wouldn't mind having a good friend like Froggy myself. Matt Murdock Spark a relationship with his secretary turned reporter Karen Paige. This show has special appearances from cast members from the Luke Cage series as well as Introducing The Punisher. So if you like the other marvel show's I mentioned then the Daredevil is next on your list. Though at this time the marvel Netflix series The Defender's air showing all these heroes team up together in a Netflix mini series. All these heroes are from various parts of New York so acourse there stories intertwine with one another. So you would definitely wanna check out The Defender's if you Wanna continue to follow the whole story. Next and last after watching Daredevil I was introduced to The Punisher. Frank Castle loses his whole family in a conspiracy Frank seek justice and through getting that well he had to break a couple of laws. The Punisher is a former military veteran who was face on a secret military elite team. As Frank found out the corruption of this group and there doings he drift far away from the group. Though he met many friend as the story goes on it would show betrayal from those close to him. Well that's my list and hope you have the pleasure of enjoying these shows as much as I did.
