Okay, the comic book geek fanboy inside of me is BUSTING AT THE SEAMS!!! I've talked about it here several times and AT LAST, this Friday the 18th it FINALLY happens: "The Defenders" arrive on Netflix (all 8 episodes).

If you're not up on who/what they are...think "blue-collar Avengers."

Here's the official synopsis:

"Marvel’s The Defenders follows Matt Murdock/Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter) and Danny Rand/Iron Fist (Finn Jones), a quartet of singular heroes with one common goal – to save New York City. This is the story of four solitary figures, burdened with their own personal challenges, who realize they just might be stronger when teamed together."

The 8 episodes also star Scott Glenn and Sigourney Weaver
