How Is Phil Coulson Still Alive ??

When ABC announce that Clark Gregg would reprise his role in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, initially I thought, well this has to take place before the Avengers. Now with reports coming out with details of the show, it's quite the opposite. This show will pick up after the events in MARVELS Avengers. And that's fine and all, but that leaves every one else with one question in mind; How did Phil Coulson survive????

PLEASE NOTE: THE FOLLOWING WILL BE A SPOILER. If you want to wait this fall for the pilot to find out the answer, TURN AROUND NOW !!!

So as you all know, Agent Coulson's death motivated the team to assemble and save the planet from an alien invasion. So I did a little research, reading different explanations. In fact, some of the theories IGN gave was "Did Thor use some Asgardian magic? Did Tony Stark create a special arc reactor? Did Bruce Banner blast him with gamma radiation?"

Well, we can finally put all those theories to rest, the official reports reveal that Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), the ultimate super spy, faked Agent Coulson’s death on purpose to motivate The Avengers. Some S.H.I.E.L.D. members were in on it  but The Avengers were not. Their security clearance wasn’t high enough. Coulson was forced to hold his breath as part of the ruse and that’s a point of contention among his colleagues  After the fact, Fury moved him to a remote location until things died down, and then he was reinserted into duty at the time of the show.

So to chuck it up, he faked his death. 

Now obviously theirs still some questions that need to be answered, but for now this is the explanation their going with and quite frankly, it makes sense.

Inside Scoope

It was oficially announced that ABC has picked up Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. as a series, debuting this fall. 

That's right people, S.H.I.E.L.D agents from The Avengers is getting a spin off show. Cast includes:

Chloe Bennet, Elizabeth Henstridge, Iain De Caestecker, Clark Gregg, Ming-Na Wen and Brett Dalton as Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Clark Gregg reprises his role from the Marvel films as Phil Coulson in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. which means that (and I'm just guessing) this series will take place BEFORE the events of the Avengers; since Agent Phil Coulson was killed off in that movie. It will also mean, we might not get any of the actual "Avengers" in the show; however, this would be a great way to explore all the other characters in the MARVEL Universe. 

This isn't the first time a network has picked up comic book story lines as shows. Their was DC's "Smallville" (show on Clark Kent that ran for 10 years) and currently on the air for The WB "ARROW" (Story of the Green Arrow). 

A quick note, both these shows aired on The WB network and If my memory serves right, this would be a first for ABC.  We'll just have to wait and see how that plays out in the future. But for now, I Approve !!!
