Those who watched Luke Muzzle when information technology was streaming on Netflix or who are currently bingeing the bear witness to prepare for upcoming Disney+ shows from the Daredevil universe may non empathise why Misty Knight appeared with a bionic arm in Luke Cage season 2. In the third series from the Daredevil chronology, Luke Cage connected the character's story previously set up in Jessica Jones season 1 while besides showing elements of the hero's origins.

One of the almost important characters from Luke Cage and the Marvel universe previously on Netflix was Misty Knight. Played by Simone Missick, the police force detective was introduced in Luke Cage season 1, episode 1, and became a abiding presence on the evidence and other productions in that universe. While some elements of her backstory take been altered in live-action, Misty Knight too comes from the Curiosity comics.

The pocket Marvel universe created at Netflix was successfully well-continued, with crossovers taking place from Daredevil to The Defenders. That'due south why information technology can exist difficult for the coincidental viewer who hasn't followed every show to keep track of everything that was going on. An example of that is Misty Knight herself, who appeared in Luke Muzzle season 2 sporting a bionic arm. Misty Knight lost her arm in The Defenders, the crossover serial that brought together the heroes Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist-  also as many other supporting characters. While facing off confronting The Hand in the final battle of The Defenders, Misty Knight fought Bakuto — 1 of the Mitt's best fighters previously introduced in Atomic number 26 Fist — merely ended upward having her correct arm cut off by his sword in the process. The cede was necessary to save Claire Temple and Collen Wing at to the lowest degree momentarily from Bakuto, and later Misty Knight would receive a bionic prosthesis from Danny Rand's visitor, Rand Enterprises. More than than replacing the missing limb, Misty Knight's bionic arm also gives the character enhanced strength, making her capable of punching people to the other side of rooms or bursting through walls with just a few punches.

In addition to losing her arm, it was in the battle against The Mitt in The Defenders that Misty Knight became close to Colleen Wing – a character who means e'er had a strong connection with Misty in the comics. This connection was later explored with Misty Knight having a role in Iron Fist season 2. Still comparison Netflix's Marvel shows to the comics, in both the 616 and Ultimate universes Misty Knight lost her arm in a terrorist set on and received a tech prosthesis of Tony Stark instead of Danny Rand.

Misty Knight was substantially a character from the Luke Cage series, just that didn't end an important role of her story, the loss of her arm, from occurring in The Defenders. The Daredevil universe now on Disney+ values the dedication of fans to follow every episode of every bear witness, but it also makes it harder for those who follow merely one of those to sympathise everything that'southward going on with their favorite characters. As with the rest of the MCU, watching each installment in the franchise makes for an even richer experience.
