Agents of Shield - Mid season premiere tonight

[johnnystorm]

Skye has some latent superpowers as well now? I read somewhere she's going to be revealed as Jessica Drew (SpiderWoman). While I can see her having the powers, I'd be surprised to see her in the costume. But it would be a good way to get a spider hero into the Avengers since they've screwed up the Spiderman movie rights.
Not liking the current Coulson whiny guy attitude. Hope they resolve that soon. I still think he's an LMD and the "real" Coulson is tucked away at SHIELD HQ recovering still. That " magical place" comment still bugs me as to why he kept saying that phrase, as the reveal had nothing magical in it.

Next week Stan Lee!!!

^Not next week. February 4th.

Oops, next TIME!

I mentioned this in a post above, but did anyone else catch the Bucky Barnes reference on the SHIELD wall of heroes? I think this was a little preview of what's coming with Winter Soldier. I think they did a couple of experiments with Barnes before Rogers cause when the hell was he ever an agent? Cool little tease nugget.

I guess my pet theory that Centipede is AIM is out the window since Hydra, Centipede, and AIM are all mentioned in the same breath.

Liked the episode. It was cool flying the jet into the vortex (the polar vortex, eh, eh. Uhm, yah. Sorry. )

I could go for a sub-line of 4" figures with a jet. Hasbro hasn't done a 4" Coulson yet, have they?

I did hear the Bucky reference too. Maybe all the 'Howling Commandos' from WWII are considered Shield agents.

I think some flashback eps would be cool. 50's, 60's 70's etc. Young Fury and such.

Jaimie Alexander fans! Guess who's showing up on SHIELD? Be great to see her in a Xena-like spinoff series.

[Operation:Mego]

Oh that will be awesome!

[jwyblejr]

It's doubtful but I'm wondering if maybe the Clairvoyant is Kang. Being from the future he'd know what would be going on.

[Operation:Mego]

Mike is confirmed to become Deathlok.


“We’ve been leaving breadcrumbs along the way,” Jeph Loeb said. “This is a major Marvel character appearing on TV, on film for the first time.”

And the Asgardian Lorelei will appear played by Elena Satine.


Also coming aboard is the character of Lorelei, a villain from Thor’s home of Asgard; footage was shown of her and the Lady Sif facing off. ”You are in the back half of the movie,” executive producer Jeff Bell said of the remaining episodes of the season. Added Loeb: “We set it up, now we’re going to pull the trigger.”

Unusually long origin story for Deathlok, but cool they are finally bringing that to the show. All signs are pointing towards High Evolutionary as the clairvoyant I think. If Skye is indeed going to become Jessica Drew, then this makes sense she's from Wundagore. Also, if you click on the link, scroll down to his list of powers. It would also be a great way to introduce Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver without using the dirty mutant word.

[Operation:Mego]

That would be a cool way to tie everything together. And their appearance on A.o.S. could set-up their appearance in Age of Ultron.

The first image of Jaimie Alexander as Sif in A.o.S. has been released:


The episode, titled Yes Men, will air March 11, 2014.

Did Simmons say she was talking to Dr.Strange? Hard to tell with her accent.
