Bustle released their recap of "Luke Cage" Premiere and said that the first episode started off with one of MCU's vague references. The recap also touched on a certain "incident" that has been talked about all over the town.
This incident is also known as the Chitauri Invasion in "The Avengers". This, in itself, may be one of the reasons why the debut just made quite a stir as there might be a possibility that "The Avengers" central figures will be featured in one of the episodes.

Street-level hero Daredevil also makes an appearance on "Luke Cage" episode 2. Here's the catch: nobody seems to give any care about his existence at Harlem. That's why at the conclusion of the episode, he decided to go back to the Hell's Kitchen.
#LukeCage Finally, a black hero that's not some lame attempt at fairness, but rather an authentic strong character who happens to be black.

According to Forbes, "Luke Cage" bears gold among all of the other superheroes released on television. The report notes how the production and casts were meticulously picked, most of them are with African-American blood. With the plot of the series focusing on the black community, it seems that the show also mirrors the unity, the hearts and the characters of the production members and of the casts.
The report also looks into the possibility that the series might open up a lot of social and political discussions. But it still sees that the negative opinions of others will not shrink the enthusiasm of Marvel fans for the new release. Simone Missick, who plays a role of a cop in the series, was quoted in The Guardian. She said that the "show highlights a lot of issues in the black community, and it will, perhaps, enact change in unlikely places. It plants a seed." "Luke Cage" is now available on Netflix.
