S.H.I.E.L.D. Exposed: “Bouncing Back”

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. bounces back with more Inhumans than you can shake a stick at! 

It’s been a while, huh? We had another season of Agent Carter in the meantime and that was… something. I’ll be honest, I gave up on it. But SHIELD’s back so let’s get into it!

tumblr_inline_o3s91jlhq11td3lix_500Right out of the gate, the show pulls the same shit that Arrow’s doing with a teasing flashforward to the seeming death of someone we know. More interesting to me is the fact that a Quinjet can make it into orbit. No speculation right now because it’s obvious who they want you to think it is.

tumblr_o3s9ktRYzV1tl69qho1_500 tumblr_o3s9ktRYzV1tl69qho3_r1_500Introduced this week is Elena “Yo-Yo” Rodrigues aka the comic book hero Slingshot. I instantly love her. She’s bubbly and feisty and her power set is cool and Mack likes her and fuck, why isn’t she on the cast permanently? I can’t wait to see her again!

tumblr_o3s9i85oCV1ubiau5o5_500Ward, or what used to be Ward, spends the better part of the episode in a bathrobe, eating meat and watching TV. Our villain, ladies and gentlemen! He’s supposed to be called Hive now and we get a sense of why as a swarm of skin cells leaves his hand to presumably infect Malick’s Inhuman henchman.

Overall, a cool return for the show and I hope it keeps up the momentum going forward as next week we see the return of General Talbot and the revelation of a traitor in The Inside Man.
