Marvel's Luke Cage: Ranking Every Major Character From Worst To Best
16. Thembi Wallace
Finest Moment: Putting Mariah on the grill.
With J Jonah Jameson around, New York needs a media personality with grit and balls, and Thembi Wallace is the hero Harlem deserves. She's the first to really see Mariah Dillard's corruption for what it is, using a live TV broadcast to turn on her and ask some difficult questions.
She's like Marvel's Bob Woodward with better lipstick, and it's really quite wonderful that she's there when Cottonmouth is arrested to catch Mariah's reaction live.
Incredibly, she lived to fight another day: you'd have thought she'd be at the top of Black Mariah's hitlist.
