Luke Cage grew up in Harlem, New York, where he was blamed for crimes he didn't commit and arrested. In order to help speed his parole, Luke agreed to some sketchy experiments that gave him unbreakable skin and super strength. Luke decided to go by the alias of Power Man and started Heroes for Hire with fellow super-hero Iron Fist. Since Heroes for Hire returned all the money they made, they disbanded the team, but the two kept in touch as friends. Later he met Jessica Jones, whom he would later marry.
