10 Reasons Netflix's Marvel Is Definitely Worth Your Time
1. It's Part Of The MCU
Despite the harsher subject matter, it's all canon. There is talk about "the incident", in reference the events of the first Avengers film. As Loki unleashed his army from the heavens, devastating New York, little thought was given to the civilians once the heroes won the battle. Netflix's Marvel rights this wrong. Characters talk about the "big green guy" as if he's an urban legend.
This isn't to say that The Defenders are mere victims of the Avengers' destructive escapades. They're heroes in their own right. In fact, who's to say that street level injustice is any less important than an extra-terrestrial threat?
And, in true Marvel spirit, Stan Lee has very subtle cameos. Blink and you'll miss him, but he's there.
