Marvel's Luke Cage: 44 Easter Eggs You Probably Missed
29. Shades & Comanche
Conniving Shades (played by the excellent Theo Rossi from Sons Of Anarchy) is a regular figure from Power Man's comics. Though he was African American in the comics, he's a pretty similar character: in both cases, he was a hood who was under the control of Rackham in Seagate, and while his history was as a member of the same gang as Luke Cage, he's almost exactly designed as he was on the page.
He's also briefly joined in the show by his best friend from the comics, Comanche (played by Thomas Q. Jones): together they've teamed up to be regular antagonists of Luke Cage.
