I'll watch it but know nothing about these characters.

Luke Cage is a "Hero For Hire" most of the time. He'll do jobs that you contract him for, just don't stiff him on the bill.

There's an infamous Fantastic Four story where he steals one of the team's jets to fly into Latveria and confront Dr. Doom for stiffing him on a laughably small amount of money.


Iron Fist is pretty much a generic martial arts hero who happens to be Luke Cage's BFF.


Jessica Jones is a failed superhero who ended up as a jaded burnout of a private investigator for a long time. After a lot of development, she ends up pregnant with Luke Cage's child, marries him, and ends up with The Avengers when Luke becomes a central member of the reformed team.
