However, things take a darker turn when Ulysses' precognitive abilities predict that Luke Cage could wind up in prison — the one place he vowed never to return. The issue explores themes of trust, preemptive justice, and how two best friends face off against a world that’s turning their values inside out. Tension simmers as differing ideologies threaten to split even the tightest bonds. Will their friendship survive the Marvel Universe’s growing divide? đŸ€œđŸ€›

Fan Theories or Interpretations

🔍 Some fans interpret this issue as symbolic of real-world systemic injustice, with Luke Cage’s potential re-incarceration highlighting racial profiling and the dangers of predictive policing. Others suggest that Danny Rand's hesitance reflects an inner conflict about privilege and loyalty, with readers dissecting his evolving perspective as he stands beside Luke in morally gray territory.
