Misty Knight Gets An Upgrade In Luke Cage Season 2

By now, a lot of you will have seen The Defenders, which brings together Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones and Iron Fist. Also featured in that Marvel/Netflix mash-up was cop Misty Knight (Simone Missick). And near the end of the miniseries, a nasty fate befell the police officer. Spoilers lie ahead for Luke Cage Season 2, where she can normally be found, but as the picture courtesy of Entertainment Weekly above can attest, she's had an upgrade.

Despite – again, spoiler warning – losing her right arm to the villainous Bakuto during the big final confrontation, Misty was promised that all the resources of Danny Rand's (Finn Jones) wealth would be provided her. And now we see what knowing a billionaire can buy you: a fancy new prosthetic, bionic arm.

It's a nod to the character's comic book origins, which saw her lose the limb in a bombing, only for Tony Stark to replace it with an arm boasting all sorts of fun abilities including superhuman strength, energy blasts and the ability to hack other tech. We'll find out what the TV Misty's arm can do when Luke Cage returns to our screens next year with Mike Colter once again playing the bulletproof hero.
