Luke Cage, wrongly convicted and unjustly imprisoned, was altered in a failed prison experiment that granted him unbreakable skin and superhuman strength. With his street smarts and unending determination to do right, he fights for the common man! He eventually married Jessica Jones and had a daughter with her.
See, and god help me I'm serious and Cage is honestly one of my favorite Superheroes EVER, but I think it would be excellent if he used a modified version of his 70's look as a disguise/costume and went by the name "Black Hercules".
Think about it! Luke gets zapped by some crazy Dr. Doom phaser-gun, and suddenly he has a split-personality that resembles how he was written in the 70's! YES!!! By day he's Luke Cage, butt-kicking Avenger and family man, by night he's Black Hercules, jive-talking Hero For Hire!
