Marvel's The Defenders: 10 Ways It Sets Up The Next Phase
8. Misty's New Arm
In the finale, Misty Knight has her arm sliced clean off by Hand leader Bakuto. It's a shocking moment for casual fans, but Marvel comics readers will see it as an exciting development that brings the character closer to the version on the page.

Later on in the episode, we learn that Danny Rand has sent Misty to a high-end hospital which provides "state of the art" care. What's the betting that they fit her with a new-fangled, state-of-the-art prosthetic arm...?
