Justin Hammer is an inmate in Seagate Prison, a place inside which Diamondback was shown to be able to place operatives. It's therefore easy to perceive that perhaps Diamondback was able to get Hammer Industries to bulk-sell him advanced weapons under the table in return for Hammer's protection from other inmates or to keep Diamondback's own goons from killing Hammer very, very badly.

Justin Hammer is an inmate in Seagate Prison, a place inside which Diamondback was shown to be able to place operatives. Hammer probably relayed orders to his employees to provide Striker with advance weapons in large quantities under the table in return for protection from other inmates or to keep Diamondback's own goons from killing Hammer very, very badly.

Waaay back in [[Recap/AgentsOfSHIELDS1E6FZZT the first season of Agents of SHIELD]], a single piece of leftover Chitauri junk kills dozens of people in Highlander fashion.

** Unlikely, given that in the one-shot the Mandarin had an agent infiltrate in as a media producer, kill the guard and Slattery's in-prison bodyguard/mook, and abduct him. If the Mandarin actually owned Seagate, it would be a far simpler solution to either (a) have the guards sequester Slattery for a nice long discussion, after which he would regrettably turn up dead and/or disappear, or (b) transfer him to an "undisclosed location. That neither of those happened suggests that the Mandarin was driven to take more overt action.

* [[Film/IronMan3 The Real Mandarin]] owns it. In the Marvel One-Shot ''Hail To The King'', we learn Trevor Slattery was sent to Seagate where he was killed by the real Mandarin. Perhaps it is no coincidence.

[[WMG: Theories on who Seagate Prison]]
Seagate Prison is privately owned. It has yet to be revealed who owns it.
* Rand Corps owns it and this sets Cage up to meet ''Series/IronFist''. Danny will find out the Meachums bought the prison after his parents died and will set out to right that wrong.
* IGH from Series/JessicaJones owns it. There has already been a great deal of overlapping between the two shows, especially involving Reeva and the idea of human experimentation.
* [[Film/IronMan3 The Real Mandarin]] owns it. In the Marvel One-Shot ''Hail To The King'', we learn Trevor Slattery was sent to Seagate where he was killed by the real Mandarin. Perhaps it is no coincidence.

From her speech in the main trailer and the fact she is described as a politican whose life is thrown in turmoil thanks to Luke Cage and her cousin. While she might turn out to be crooked, she could turn out to be a better person than the crime lord from the comics.

[[WMG: The experiment that gave Luke his powers was a covert attempt by HYDRA to recreate Captain America.]]
The procedure is remarkably similar, and we know that HYDRA had long since both infiltrated the US Government and been trying to make their own super-soldiers. Also much like Steve with Luke was a good man who just wanted to do the right thing, which is why the procedure was so successful with him.
