MCU: What The Netflix Shows MUST Do If Resurrected

4. Strengthen Those Links To The MCU

The darker tone of the Netflix shows may have prohibited any meaningful connections to Marvel's films from coming about, but it was still a constant source of frustration that, no matter how often the shows paid reference to the films, the same attention was never reciprocated.

A major part of what has made the MCU so popular is the interconnectivity between its movies and (soon) its Disney Plus shows - why not expand on this popularity by having Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Daredevil and Punisher tie-in too?

All of these characters have played major roles in Avengers storylines in the comics, and heck, there was a period in which Luke Cage led the team and had Iron Fist and Jessica Jones as his most trusted allies on it - it doesn't make sense to ignore this.

As for Daredevil and Punisher, they have had more to do with the likes of Spider-Man and Moon Knight rather than the Avengers so connecting them to the MCU would still be necessary for such interactions to take place on-screen.
