Luke Cage is hired by a mysterious businessman to track a couple of thugs who have stolen technology from the client’s personal cache. Cage accepts the job, but quickly finds out the ‘thugs’ are actually robots! Caught off-guard, Cage struggles put up a fight! Plus, the appearance of a surprise super-villain!

Luke Cage takes a job from a rich backer, Dr. Doom. Cage is sent to take down four men who have stolen secrets from Doom.

This is an action packed decent prelude to Cages face off with Dr. Doom in the next issue. Good for the ages.
