I halfway through watching Captain Marvel and I already simp for Talos please send help.
1948 Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. series 1
Howard finally opens the S.H.I.E.L.D. agency and makes Peggy director. The SSR keep the Playground base and are absorbed into S.H.I.E.L.D. as their research division.
Howard's greater authority and larger amount of resources from the government (as well as his own) allow them to pull in more heroes.
S.H.I.E.L.D. will fight terrorist cells and non-state actors, investigate supernatural phenomena, also deal with and cover up powered people cos the general public "can't handle the truth". This is part of their mandate from the government and S.H.I.E.L.D. is threatened with closure or refusal of funding many times for trying to circumvent this aspect of their role within said government.
Director Carter is trying to maintain a long distance relationship with Sousa and has to investigate the "hit" on Agent Thomson.
Zodiac is the main story for this series.
Zodiac is behind the assassination attempt, with the council of 9 previously being under them. Vernon Masters returns to do their bidding (never saw a body right?). Peggy's brother has been alive all this time and it was his redacted file that Thomson was to smear Peggy with and not actually Peggy's (Michael's name and d.o.b. were redacted just leaving the surname Carter and informants that heavily implied that it was Peggy). With the smear failed, the Zodiac group want it back, for safe keeping. Thomson is the only one outside of the Zodiac or the council of 9 that has read it, so he was supposed to be killed, but they hired Dottie to do it and she was able to make it look like she was trying to kill him without killing him ("if I'd wanted to kill him he'd be dead"). She arranges a meet with Peggy in a subterfugey way, info dumps, insists she really was trying to be helpful by taking the hit job, and manages to wriggle away again.
Zodiac is led by Marcus Lassiter (A buff Milo Ventimiglia with a cool beard). Marcus has the codename Aries and wears ram horns at the meetings which seems silly at first till we realise they are functional and they all have silly costumes. Marcus has super-human strength, which we don't see initially.
All of the Zodiac members have themed powers/tech:
Taurus (Cornelius Van Lunt) has bought his seat on the board and isn't afraid to use that fact. He has a bull's head costume. He also has dangerous horns.
Gemini (Joshua and Damian Link) are identical twins have identical costumes and carry identical dual wielding pistols. They have an amazing synergy when they fight as a duo. They only get one vote between them.Ā
Cancer (Jack Kleveno) has a crab costume. That is all I have to say about that.
Leo (Daniel Radford) is a dude in a lion suit. It has a lion mask and an exoskeleton that gives the wearer enhanced strength, agility and durability.Ā
Virgo (Elaine McLaughlin) has an extraterrestrial material coating her suit which gives her great durability and shock absorption. It also allows her to heal/regenerate herself or others. In my head, crab man gets injured by S.H.I.E.L.D. and Elaine comes back and gets captured just to heal her secret crustacean lover.
Libra (Gustav Brandt) has a hi tec blindfold that allows him limited psychic abilities and a teleportation ring. Martial artist too.
Scorpio (Jake Fury) has a costume with venom blasts and neurotoxic sprays. Yes. That Fury. In the comics he is Nick's brother. Here he would have to be his dad. In the series he is only referred to as Jake initially to keep his identity a slight surprise.
Sagittarius (Harlan Vargas) has an eye mask that grants enhanced vision and tracking abilities. He is highly skilled with a bow and arrow.
Capricorn (Willard Weir) is green. I'm thinking they're an alien. This superpower ideas site says Capricorn might have shape shifting abilities so they could be a Skrull masquerading as a Willard Weir.
Aquarius (Michael Carter) has a water based costume and weapons. Michael was not happy with the smear on Peggy but went along with it for fear of repercussions.Ā But now her life is under threat, so he leaves warnings for her to help her avoid getting killed. Eventually Aries discovers the betrayal and beats Michael to death in his secret apartment. Peggy comes across the apartment as part of the S.H.I.E.L.D. investigation and discovers the body. She realises he was the one giving warnings (to help them avoid traps, ambushes etc) and finds a note he wrote for her when he knew Aries was coming for him. It's written in their shared childhood code. It explains his motivations (he was trying to change the world for the better) and gives some info about what Zodiac are going to do next. Zachary Drebb is the second Aquarius.
Piesces (Noah Perricone) is blue and looks like he'd be good in the water so I'm thinking Talokanil
S.H.I.E.L.D. discover there is an off-books SSR mole on the inside. They are furious with Flynn for not telling them straight away. Flynn thought it would compromise the mole's safety.
As the Zodiac members are arrested or killed during the S.H.I.E.L.D. investigation, Jake Fury is revealed as the SSR mole. He tries to escape with the actual Zodiac key but it corrupts him and he tries to incite rebellion within the remaining Zodiac council members to effect social change. This just causes everyone to squabble and fight. Aries finds this amusing, but comes for Jake nevertheless. Jake ends up losing the key back to Aries, but escapes with his life.
Aries reveals himself as an actual god at the end of the series. He was cast out by Zeus for causing too much trouble in Omnipotence City and bound to be peaceful. He has taken that to mean he can't fight personally and has been manipulating world events with extracts from the aforementioned Zodiac Key to cause as much conflict as possible. The S.H.I.E.L.D. team have been annoying him by thwarting his plans. He says he is tired of being subtle.
They need the whole team, including Dottie, Sousa, Thomson and the Howling commandos using Stark tech and the Human Torch (Jim), Union Jack II (Brian) and Spitfire (Jacqueline). Peggy also calls in a favour from California based Adam Brashear (aka Blue Marvel) to help take him down. As Adam was the love interest from the previous series, this risks embarrassment for Peggy and could possibly end her relationship with Sousa, but the stakes are too high not to.
Ultimately Jim is the only one not affected by the Zodiac key and has to go Supernova to knock him out. He knew he was becoming unstable and had been advised he might go supernova, he just decides to do it on purpose. Heroic sacrifice! The team is devastated at the loss.
A relationship between Jim and Jacqueline would be built up through the series so she would take this the hardest.
Zeus could come and actually bind Ares with power dampening bangles. This physically prevents him from conflict instead of just getting his word. He is captured and will not be seen again till Dark Avengers.
S.H.I.E.L.D. recommends Adam for a commendation and Jim for a posthumous one. The CIA intervene and say that not only will no one will be getting one but no one must hear of it. The existence of gods and aliens is very much covered up at the behest of the American government so as not to cause mass hysteria. No one outside of the President and the people who were at the final battle know anything about it.
Adam is told he cannot be publicly rewarded and is no longer allowed to fight crime (he has been fighting crime in a costume and mask to hide his identity) as the CIA believe the world is not ready for a black superhero. The President reluctantly confirms this. S.H.I.E.L.D. must assign him a handler (he is so going to fight crime).
As Jim was essentially a sentient weapon the CIA won't publicly acknowledge his existence and stipulate he must be buried in the desert in an indestructible airtight box. The President reluctantly confirms this too.
Dottie disappears after making a significant contribution and manages to stay off radar until the first Black Widow movieā¦
Peggy and Sousa decide to carry on with their long distance relationship.
Namor shows up when he finds out about Noah. He is not happy that his citizen was defeated and arrested and he vows never to return. He is also not happy with said citizen for acting without his consent and forces S.H.I.E.L.D. to release him into Talokanil custody. He is sorry about Jim Hammond's passing though and stays for the burial in a secret S.H.I.E.L.D. location in the desert.
Post credits:- Peggy calls Marlene Frazier and asks, as she has been with Adam this whole time anyway, if she'll be his handler. He comes home and gives her a kiss, they have developed a relationship while working together. She says she is happy to keep an eye on him.
Secret Invasion Spoilers
Episode 3
SUPER SKRULLS?!?! Oh hell no
Not Gravik trying to start WWIII
What does Dreykov have to do with this?
Man retired to space
āIām a good liar,ā I see you
Yk Talos is right, humans are most formidable when theyāre threatened by a common foe
Omg did Gravik inject himself with Extremist? Or whatever that serum from Iron Man 3 was called
Nick really is shameless tho
Love the Talos and Nick duo
OMG IS RHODEY THE SKRULL?!
I love Sonya
Everyone wants a apology from Nick
Nope nevermind, itās not Rhodey, I hope heās more involved in this
I agree with Talos on the dog things
Not the Skrulls carrying Nick on theirs back
This show is just Nick Fury getting roasted by everyone so far
Aināt no way they just killed Gāiah
Why did the person Priscilla was talking to sound a lot like Rhodey?
Iām surprised Carol hasnāt been mentioned
Secret Invasion Spoilers
Episode 4
Iām love that theyāre bring back old plots (Extremis)
Iām glad Gāiah is still alive, wouldāve been waste of Emma Clarke
First Dreykov now 2012?
Would love to see Tonyās reaction to Fury having a wife
OMG PLEASE DONāT LET RHODEY BE A SKRULL
HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON?!
What if heās be a skrull since Iron Man 2 or before?
It would explain how they (Skrulls) know about the Extremis
DAMN IT FIRST MARIA AND NOW RHODEY
I donāt understand whoās side Priscilla is on
Yk the Skrulls could go to nowhere
Not Fury calling their marriage a mistake
Iām confused, was Fury in love with the real Priscilla or the Skrull?
Yk it hurts every time I see Rhodey, like what about Pepper, Morgan and Happy? Are they safe or in danger from the Skrulls
My sister said imaging him growing distance with them and I canāt even imagine
HOW LONG HAS HE BEEN A SKRULL?!
Liquid location tracker? Man what the heck is going on, how far is technology coming and who developed it
WAS THAT GROOTS POWER?!
OMG IS TALOS GONNA BE OKAY?
Secret Invasion Spoilers
Episode 5
Still not over Talos
What does he mean that Fury has the Avengers DNA?!
Why does he have it?!
DO THEY KNOW HE HAS THEIR DNA?!
My sister: Rhodey is right about the world hating Fury for ākillingā Maria Hill
Bro I love Sonya
Whoās Flora Calossus?
Did he just adopt Gāiah?
Sonya is so real
Bro collecting Avengers DNA is so fucking creepy
Okay but why is no one shocked that Fury is alive cuz for the world he kinda ādiedā 2014 during Winter Soldier
Also what was that whole thing in end, who did he call? And what did Sonya understand by āSkrulls like the coldā
This episode was way too confusing
Anywayssss Daisy Johnson when?




I LOVE HER!!!
Sonya Falsworth, everyone.
I swear... She is the best character in this show.
Secret Invasion Spoilers
Episode 6
So the Avengers DNA is in that tiny vile
Why is Fury acting like heās dying
No because why do I feel bad for Gravik
But why are all the DNA mixed together?
Aināt no way itās actually their DNA
Still love Sonya
This whole powers thing is a little weird not gonna lie
Also how does he have the DNA of people he never met or were ever on earth
The fight between Gāiah and Gravik was the weirdest and the coolest one Iāve seen in marvel so far
But not exciting tho
EVERETT ROSS?! How long has he been in there? ļæ¼
OMG RHODEY
How long?! šš
āYou know where to find meā WE LITERALLY DONāT
SABER?! What the hell is that?
WHAT IF IT WAS DAISY WHO BROUGHT THE PEACE PROPOSAL FROM THE KREE?!
I mean she was off planet the last time we saw her and she does have experience with the Kree?!
Nick and Varra being a power couple? Yes please
THERES MORE EPISODES RIGHT?!
I hate this show
No Daisy Johnson, Maria dead, and no idea how long Rhodeys been in there and a mention of Carol
THEY ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING
AND NO END CREDITS?! The end credits wouldāve been perfect to introduce Daisy
Also Sonya is recruiting ļæ¼super people and so is Val so is this gonna be like Sonya vs Val thing?
Also I donāt want Sonya to be the equivalent of a new Nick Fury, it shouldāve been Maria
Also what the hell were all those people in that room?

***SPOILERS FOR CAPTAIN MARVEL***
Okay, Iām sure that someone has already posted about this, but I wanted to ask it for myself.Ā Ā
So, does anyone else do this thing where you see a character you really like and you automatically assume theyāre going to die?Ā Ā
Like, when it was revealed in Captain Marvel that the SkrullsĀ werenātĀ the villains, and that General Talos had a family heād been waiting to see again, my brother and I began to nudge each other in the theater like āOh man, heās gonna die.āĀ Ā āYeah, heās too likable.Ā Theyāre going to kill him off.āĀ (And later on when he was shot we both lost it and screamed āOH, I KNEW IT!!!ā)Ā Obviously, it was a huge relief when he didnāt die after all, but it was a heart attack for the both of us.Ā Ā
Can anyone else out there relate?Ā
I keep forgetting the name of Olivia Colemans character so i've just been calling her Mrs Nelson and now Nicks mum is, at least in my head, leading the most insane double life
