"These characters were getting to develop, not just as increasingly important parts of the wider narratives of their respective shows, but as friends and partners as well," says James Whitbrook of Simone Missick's Misty Knight and Jessica Henwick's Colleen Wing. He adds: "There was so much more to do—the promise of Misty coming further into the fold of this wild superheroic world as she realized her own strengths and capabilities, the promise of seeing Colleen be the Iron Fist, the promise of their partnership together—that the pain of losing both Iron Fist and Luke Cage within the span of a week was a blow that hit a lot harder than it otherwise should have. Both shows were on track for some intriguing directions, but Colleen and Misty were both arguably driving those intriguing directions as much as Danny and Luke themselves." ALSO: Luke Cage's cancelation is far more concerning because of the massive Season 2 cliffhanger.
