1970's Luke Cage: So Sweet, it's Christmas!

Hero for Hire ad

Back in the ancient days, I remember when Luke Cage: Hero for Hire premiered to great fanfare.  That was the time when films like Shaft and Superfly (which I could not see as they were rated R) were popular.  I loved this house ad drawing by John Romita that Stan Lee highlighted in his soapbox.

I really dig the fact that the 1970s version of Luke Cage came out of that Skrull spaceship in Secret Invasion #1.  I'm halfway hoping that this is the real deal and the Luke that married Jessica is the Skrull.  I know that is impossible...but I can't stop fantasizing.  Nuff said.
