!!! '''Alter Ego:''' Mercedes "Misty" Knight
%%!!! '''Notable Aliases:'''
!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''Marvel Team-Up'' #1 (March, 1972)
-> ''"Hello, hero. This is Control. Are you for hire tonight?"''
'''Misty Knight''' is a Creator/MarvelComics character created by Tony Isabella and Arvell Jones, first appearing in ''Marvel Premiere'' #21 (dated March 1975).
Created in response to the {{blaxploitation}} craze of UsefulNotes/TheSeventies, Mercedes Kelly "Misty" Knight was an average police officer in the New York City Police Department until she was injured in the line of duty, losing her right arm while attempting to stop a bombing. Upon recovery (and resigning from the force in lieu of taking a [[DeskJockey desk job]]), she was given a bionic replacement arm by [[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark]] and became the roommate of ComicBook/JeanGrey during the latter's stint away from the ComicBook/XMen.
Not taking her retirement lightly, Misty soon formed the ComicBook/DaughtersOfTheDragon private detective agency with her best friend Colleen Wing. During this time, she also made the acquaintance of ComicBook/LukeCage and ComicBook/IronFist -- the latter of which she'd begin an [[WillTheyOrWontThey on-off relationship]] with over the next few decades.
After many years of relative obscurity, Misty saw a resurgence in popularity during the [[TurnOfTheMillennium mid-oughts]], thanks to her increased involvement with the street-level side of the MarvelUniverse. She appeared in the second and third volumes of ''ComicBook/HeroesForHire'', co-starred in ''Immortal Iron Fist'', and co-headlined a six-issue ''Daughters of The Dragon'' limited series with Colleen, among other things.
The ComicBook/MarvelNOW and ComicBook/AllNewAllDifferentMarvel eras of the UsefulNotes/TheNewTens continued Misty's visibility streak, having her join the ''ComicBook/FearlessDefenders'' alongside [[ComicBook/NewMutants Dani Moonstar]] and ComicBook/{{Valkyrie|Marvel Comics}}. It was during this time that she also began a working (and [[AgentsDating little-less-than-professional]]) relationship with [[ComicBook/TheFalcon Sam Wilson]], the all-new ComicBook/CaptainAmerica.
Outside of comics, Misty has appeared in various other forms of media. She's a playable character in the video games ''VideoGame/MarvelFutureFight'' and ''VideoGame/MarvelAvengersAlliance'', and appears in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperHeroSquadShow''. In 2016, she made her live-action debut in ''Series/LukeCage2016'', portrayed by Creator/SimoneMissick.

!! Misty Knight provides examples of the following tropes:
* AbortedArc: Misty thought she was pregnant towards the end of ''The Immortal Iron Fist'', but after that book ended, it was determined to have been a "phantom" pregnancy, which was established in a story in an anthology comic that almost nobody read. The fallout from that would later play into the plot of the 2011 ''Heroes for Hire''.
* AfroAsskicker: One of the MarvelUniverse's preeminent examples, especially since Luke Cage has largely been coifed with a shaved hairstyle in recent years.
* ArtificialLimbs: Misty Knight has a bionic arm, created by Tony Stark. The original limb was "just" an artificial limb, which was nearly impossible to tell apart from a real arm; it gave her a solid right hook and superhuman grip strength, but nothing else that a human wouldn't have. Misty later received a much more obviously cybernetic upgrade in ''Daughters of the Dragon'', which has features including a blaster, a force-field projector, and a small amount of Antarctic Vibranium, which allows her to liquefy Adamantium objects with a touch.
* BareYourMidriff: Most of her suits leave her belly well visible.
* BattleCouple: With Danny Rand and later Sam Wilson.
* BountyHunter: Of the non-lethal variety, she's a bail enforcer.
* TheBusCameBack: Misty Knight was created in the 1970s, and forgotten a short time later. She was brought back in 2006, first in the ''ComicBook/UltimateGalactusTrilogy'' set at ComicBook/UltimateMarvel, and then with the ''ComicBook/DaughtersOfTheDragon'' miniseries in the mainstream universe. She became a regular character since then, appearing in several comic books.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: She has always been a badass. Then she became a badass with a bionic arm.
* {{Expy}}: She's explicitly based on Pam Grier as ''Coffy''.
* FanServicePack: Misty Knight was created in the 1970s, but has only been MsFanservice since the 2006 relaunch of ''Daughters of the Dragon''. See [[http://www.writeups.org/misty-knight-marvel-comics-heroes-hire/ here]].
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Colleen Wing. Both of them have their male romances.
* ItsAllMyFault: Misty blamed herself for Humbug's corruption and his death at Shang Chi's hands because she was the team leader.
* LogicalWeakness: Since the rest of Misty's body isn't cybernetically enhanced,she cannot lift objects heavier than her back, shoulders, and legs can physically support.
* MostCommonSuperPower: Misty has a huge bust.
* MonsterRoommate: Back in the X-Men comics, she once had a young roommate who was going to college. It was the Phoenix before she went crazy and wiped out a Shi'ar solar system.
* PunchClockHero: While she will help out for the cause of good or if there's a great threat to New York, she's mostly work for hire when it comes to doing the superhero gig. In 2020, she's an agent for J.A.N.U.S, an unknown agency that has some really suspect leadership and has a stated goal of scouting out Ravencroft asylum for potential assets.
* RedIsHeroic: Her modern outfits are usually red or have red in it.
* StatuesqueStunner: She's 5'9"/175cm tall and quite attractive.
* SwissArmyAppendage: Misty's cybernetic arm has received some a number of upgrades over the years.
** Misty's first prosthesis was constructed from steel, and designed by Stark Industries. It possessed a vise-like grip and allowed limited super strength.
** Misty's second arm was built by Tony Stark and was made from an Antarctic Vibranium and a diamond combined alloy. Due to the new material, at close range, it can liquefy most metals including [[MadeOfIndestructium adamantium.]] It can generate a [[DeflectorShields wide anti-gravity repulsor field]] similar to Iron Man's armor and [[FreezeRay can produce concentrated beam of cryogenic energy]], covering an area in ice. Tony Stark later revealed the new arm allows her some limited [[{{Technopathy}} technopathic capabilities]] which she used it to take control of a group of attacking robots in ''ComicBook/WorldWarHulk: Aftersmash''. Daniel Rand later funded an upgrade of the arm to include [[SelectiveMagnetism magnetism]] and [[HandBlast a concussive blast]].
** Misty's third prosthetic included a GrapplingHookPistol hidden in the forearm and energy shield whose size she could adjust to compensate for mass protection. While working for the J.A.N.U.S. organization, her prosthesis outfitted with sonics to deal with ComicBook/{{Carnage}}.
** Misty's fourth bionic arm included WolverineClaws and [[EnhancedPunch an energized charge which supposedly enhances her bludgeoning and striking power.]]
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Surprisingly, she has been at both sides of the equation. When she's paired with the sweet Colleen Wing, she's the hardened leader with the mind focused on getting the job done. And when she's paired with Valkyrie, one of those goddesses that seem as if taken straight from ''Series/XenaWarriorPrincess'', then she's the one who will care about human emotions instead of just taking down Asgardian zombies and seeking the next target. And the best part is that both portrayals are consistent with the other.
* TokenGoodTeammate: She and [[ComicBook/AlphaFlight James Hudson, Guardian of Alpha Flight]] are members of J.A.N.U.S, who's leadership includes members from HYDRA, AIM and the Weapon X project.
