(short for Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division).

Characters
Phil Coulson's team
Character | Portrayed by | First appearance | No. of episodes | Notes/References |
---|---|---|---|---|
Phil Coulson | Clark Gregg | 101 - "Pilot" | 11 | A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who oversees many of the division's field operations. In the series' pilot episode, Phil Coulson reveals that he did technically die at Loki's hands but was immediately resuscitated by S.H.I.E.L.D. medics and sent to recover in Tahiti. Nick Fury withheld this information from the Avengers to facilitate their collaboration as a team. However, a conversation between Maria Hill and Dr. Streiten (a S.H.I.E.L.D. medic) suggests there is more to Coulson's resurrection than he himself is aware. In a later episode, a former protégé notes that something is different about Coulson, who becomes suspicious himself when he discovers that all files related to his injury and recovery can only be accessed with Fury's authorization. In the mid-season finale, Coulson is kidnapped by Project Centipede who make clear their desire to learn more about his "death". In the subsequent episode "The Magical Place", Coulson is subjected to Project Centipede's mind-probing device, and learns that he did actually indeed die. Nick Fury ordered that surgeries be performed on Coulson to bring him back to life. S.H.I.E.L.D. surgeons were actually able to bring Coulson back to life days after he had been killed. During the process, they altered some of his memories to make him believe that he was revived in Tahiti in order to erase the trauma he experienced during the procedures. The specific reason for Coulson's revival after death has not yet been revealed.[1] |
