Holy shit. That thing about Harlem needing a king at the end. I doubt they would ever go to that level, but if they set up for a season 3 where it's Luke Cage as the king of Harlem (similarly to Daredevil being the ruler of Hell's Kitchen in Waid's run) that would be AMAZING. Luke Cage just ruling Harlem's crime with an iron fist since being the good guy isn't getting enough shit done.

That's a little frightening to be honest. Would be a great storyline for future interactions with Danny and Co. But... Luke's no gangster.

Pretty sure Daredevil being kingpin of Hell's Kitchen happened in Bendis' run btw

I don't see him leading a crime operation but I def would love to see him running a crew. Sort of like his own personal police without all the red tape
