Building to the Team · The Defenders
Luke Cage (Season 1)
EssentialSeries2016
A bulletproof man in Harlem, and the best soundtrack of the six. Loses its way once the first villain leaves.
Availability changes by country and by week, so this searches JustWatch rather than guessing.
Can you skip Luke Cage (Season 1)?
No. It carries part of the main Defenders Saga throughline, and what comes after it assumes you have seen it. See the full Defenders Saga order.
