Marvel's street-level heroes have seen a rise in popularity since being rebranded as Defenders in light of Marvel Television's partnership with Netflix to bring the characters to live action. That agreement has already led to two seasons of Marvel's Daredevil and one season Marvel's Jessica Jones. Marvel's Luke Cage will follow in September, with Marvel's Iron Fist following thereafter. The four series will crossover for the Marvel's Defenders event series. A spin-off of Daredevil Season 2 focusing on the take no prisoner anti-hero the Punisher has also been announced.
