DC may be making the most television waves at Comic-Con 2014 so far, but Marvel will not stand idly by, with the announcement of their joint Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter panel. This will be Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.‘s second appearance at the massive San Diego event. Last year they debuted the entire pilot episode, and yours truly got to talk to a few key people from the show (Joss Whedon & Clark Gregg/Agent Coulson Interview and Ming-Na/Agent May Interview).
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. had a bit of a rocky start, but ended the season extremely strong thanks to a great story connection to Captain America: The Winter Soldier and solid cast additions like Bill Paxton. The chemistry amongst the stars really started to gel near the end when the characters all found traction and purpose.
No footage ofAgent Carter has been seen by the public yet, but the Marvel: One Shot was about as good of a pilot episode as any show can get. Recent announcements of Dominic Cooper reprising his role as Howard Stark and Neal McDonough as Dum Dum Dugan only increase the ramping excitement. Agent Carter is scheduled to air during the break between the first and second half of the upcoming season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on ABC.
