Phil Coulson

Phillip Coulson (b. 8 July 1964) is a long-serving field agent working for S.H.I.E.L.D.

He served as Director Fury's second-in-command for some of the Division's most important missions. One of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s most decorated operatives, Coulson was put in charge of surveillance and served as the primary operative in the Avengers Initiative. He was also the leading Agent over seeing Project T.A.H.I.T.I. (Terrestrialized Alien Host Integrative Tissue I.)

In 2012 Coulson was killed by Loki Odinson, but Nick Fury decided to use Project T.A.H.I.T.I. to bring Coulson back to life. A decision Coulson wasn't happy with.

After the United States dismantled S.H.I.E.L.D in 2014, Fury appointed Coulson as the new director of a new Shield with the order of rebuilding the organisation from the ground up. Director Coulson, used this position to targert HYDRA directly. Coulson personally killed the head of HYDRA within the United States and then played the other leaders against each other to slow down HYDRA operations in America.
