6) Will Misty Be A Vigilante In The Defenders?
Another character who was significantly changed for the TV show is Misty Knight. In the comics, Misty is a private eye slash kung fu master who has a bionic arm (supplied by Tony Stark). On screen, Misty is a regular detective who’s good at basketball rather than martial arts and definitely doesn’t have a metal arm. The last time we see Misty, however, she sports a very similar look to her comics counterpart – with afro hair and a red dress.
Putting this together with her growing lack of faith in the system, it seems likely that Misty will turn vigilante soon. But will she have already crossed that bridge by the time we next see her, or will this be a further story arc? Considering that her next appearance will presumably be The Defenders (unless she turns up in Iron Fist), this might be a tall ask. So much time will be dedicated to the four heroes that the show presumably won’t have a lot of time to give Misty her own character arc.
