History[]
21st Century Howling Commando Gear[]
- "It's a 21st-century Howling Commandos kit. Trip and Fitz built it for me."
- ―Phil Coulson to Lance Hunter[src]
Leo Fitz and Antoine Triplett presented S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Phil Coulson with a briefcase of modernized Howling Commando Gear, which included the Holographic Cards.[1]
Escape from the Playground[]
- "This should get you by for a few days."
- ―Melinda May to Phil Coulson[src]
During the Attack on the Playground, Melinda May gave Phil Coulson a briefcase as she helped him escape from the base.[2]
Trick at the Retreat[]
- "I can't believe that worked."
"We had the better hand." - ―Lance Hunter and Phil Coulson[src]
Phil Coulson escaped with the kit and found Lance Hunter. The two stole a car from Honest Eddie and drove to the Retreat. A day later, Coulson came up with a plan to capture a Quinjet. He alerted Gonzales' S.H.I.E.L.D to their location, which was immediately attacked. Once the agents got into the house, Coulson used the cards to trick the agents, and he and Hunter took them out with I.C.E.R.s.[1]
