Now that the third season of Marvel's Jessica Jones has landed on Netflix, fans were hit with the sad realisation that this is end of the road for the on-demand streaming juggernaut's shared world of Marvel heroes.

Despite wowing viewers, Netflix decided to call time on the small-screen realm inhabited by Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and, of course, the brutal 'n' bloody Punisher. Still, it was great while it lasted, right? These characters may be gone for now, but many are still holding out hope that something can be worked out for the five heroes and their supporting players to end up on the impending Disney+ streaming service.

For now, we're merely left with the memories of some absolutely brilliant television. How well do you think you remember these shows, though? In particular, we're talking about the antics of Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones and Mike Colter's Luke Cage.

You see, we've got a bunch of quotes lined up for you here. All you have to do is correctly identify whether these lines of dialogue were said by Ritter's Jessica or Colter's Power Man.

1. "They Say Everyone's Born A Hero. But If You Let It, Life Will Push You Over The Line Until You're The Villain."
