Agents Of SHIELD: 10 Questions For Season 3

5. Is Coulson Getting A New Arm?

It has been a running gag of-sorts throughout the Phase 2 movies of Marvel that someone loses an arm in every film, admitted by Kevin Feige to be an homage to Star Wars. That spilled over - whether knowingly or not, but you€™d assume it was - into the TV side of things in the season finale, as Agent Coulson lost part of his arm.

It was chopped off by Mack as the Diviner-metal infused Terrigen crystals threatened to turn him into a Stone-Man, meaning that being partially arm-less is a lot better than what could€™ve happened. Plus, this is Coulson, he€™s came back from the dead so surely a little loss-of-limb won€™t pose too much of a problem.

It is likely that they€™ll find some way of getting him a new one though, so will we see Coulson sporting some pretty cool Deathlock-type of machinery next year?
