:WILD SPECULATION ALERT!:

This does nothing but keep my hope alive for some sort of Alpha Flight something. With all the allusions with Skye being "some kind of monster", I'm wondering if she is an in-series analogue for Marrina. Would make sense on a couple different levels.

Still kinda shocked they name dropped Department H.

So what are the speculations on Skye's parents?

I've read one about her turning out to be Abigail Brand, which would suck, but would kinda explain her 0-8-4 origin and her father being burnt.

Agents returns Sept 23. Carter of course debuts during the mid-season break, promising a straight season without any actual breaks or reruns.

The last 2 on the SHIELD side are Sky and Ward I think? No black agent?

So who's playing Agent Carter?

Hayley Atwell like in the movies?

Yes.

Why is Ward in the poster?

He's in the show.

Btw, Lucy Lawless is coming too.

Umm, what? Coming where? Agents of SHIELD?

Yes.

Apparently IMDB doesn't get too many updates on Marvel TV shows.

Nope.

All the talk of of Lucy Lawless and not of

ADRIANNE PALICKI IS MOCKINGBIRD

That's pretty great casting, actually.

I read that today at work and just couldn't help but squee.

FUCK YEAH MOTHER FUCKERS!

IS IT SEPTEMBER 23RD YET?!?!?!?!?!?

From Entertainment Weekly online:

ABC unveiled a new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. billboard that may have motorists scratching their heads.

On Monday morning, a new ad for the show appeared on Barham and DeWitt—an intersection hard to miss when you’re coming into Hollywood—that features the mysterious alien equation that Coulson was carving into a wall in the final moments of the S.H.I.E.L.D. finale.

The billboard keeps with the minimalist tone the super series set going into its freshman run.

Can you decipher the alien equation? Tune in to Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on Sept. 23 at 9 p.m. on ABC.

Crusher Creel, AKA Absorbing Man, is going to be showing up in Season 2's premiere, portrayed by Brian Patrick Wade.

And now that the show proved itself...time to bring in a ton of actual villains for the team to fight.

AND BRING IN THE GUEST HEROES!

I wasn't sure which thread to put this in but whatever.

I would love to see William Hurt return as Thunderbolt Ross, just to add more connection between Incredible Hulk and the rest of the movieverse. I think it would work in SHIELD, if they could convince him to work the show.

That would be cool. There's other, too, character that won't have much reason to appear in the movies again but could drop in the show. The cool thing is certain sub-villains could be a major problem for Coulson's team. Justin Hammer could get out, Batroc could cause some trouble, perhaps there's a runaway Dark Elf somewhere.

yeah there are plenty of opportunities for other characters. I've just been thinking about Ross in particular. Would add more legitimacy to the show as well.

I wonder if they're even allowed to hint at any of the characters that Sony or Fox has. Something about "Some guy crawling on the side of Manhattan's skyscrapers" or somesuch.

Probably not but that'd be awesome if they could.

Bad idea.

Now, who's the slightly round guy at 0:16?
Doesn't give out much in terms of new characters. Digging Skye's look.

That's Patton Oswalt as Billy Koenig, the twin brother of late Eric Koenig.

Thought as much.

Adults actually watch this show? prayers for humanity.

Little social degenerates watching a childrens show it's comical.

I just feel bad for you're children (If you even have them) having to grow up and say "My fathers a loser"

this version of trolling doesnt work here. we've seen it for over a decade, please be better troll.

lol

Version of trolling?

Yes, we've seen it all. We sincerely would rather you come at us with something newer than 2007 trolling.

Amazing. I thought that died out years ago.

He's retro. Like a hollywood reboot. Same bit diffrent faces.

Had to imdb Wilmer Calderon as I thought it was Fez from That 70's Show. Turns out the guy was in the first Fast & Furious movie.

Also, Kyle MacLachlan as Skye's father or so I've heard.
