A friend of mine and I were recently re-watching season one of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to catch up on the episodes we had missed. A big emphasis in the second half of the first season was Coulson’s realization that what he had been told about his brief death, resuscitation, and recovery after the Battle of New York was not the entire truth. The big reveal of what exactly happened after Coulson was killed occurred in episode eleven, “The Magical Place.” As I watched Clark Gregg’s character writhing in psychological pain, I was reminded of another captain of another group that was also tortured psychologically and physically: Captain Picard, in the famous episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation called “Chain of Command, Part II.” As my friend and I concluded, I have to say that Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise is a far better leader of men than Agent Phil Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D.
