Disney+'s Loki unleashes the Multiverse and brings us Marvel's What if…? Because of this, a fan favorite MCU character is finally coming back.

Clark Gregg's Agent Phil Coulson first appeared in Iron Man and his character was the heart and soul of Marvel Studio’s Phase One. No one really expected his tragic “death” by the tip of Loki's scepter in 2012's The Avengers. So when MCU fans learned about his comeback in Captain Marvel, fans rejoiced. He also appeared in the ABC television series Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which lasted for seven seasons. Although the show is no longer considered canon, fans still enjoyed the series.

Now he's back once more appearing on Marvel's animated series What if…? It's not necessarily clear as to which episode he'll be appearing in but to have him back on the MCU is simply amazing. Maybe he'll be partnering up with Spider-Man taking down the zombified versions of the Avengers. Or maybe there will be an episode where ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will be making an appearance. Marvel Studios Chief Creative Officer Kevin Feige has teased before that he may be bringing back the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. back into MCU canon.
