UPDATE: Here’s the full 30-second first look at ABC‘s Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. unveiled tonight:
PREVIOUSLY, SUNDAY AM: A fuller first look at ABC‘s Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. airs tonight during Once Upon A Time. Here’s a tease of the tease for the fanboys and girls:




Sorry, I blinked. What did I miss?
Jesus Christ, you’re blinking for six seconds? You gotta get that checked out.
That Ming Na Wen, at 50, is still as sexy as a femme fatale with nothing on but the radio.
Says nothing; means nothing! Doesn’t tease anything.
So happy for the fanBOYS. Guess as a fangirl I have to wait for the pink one.
Yikes. Already looks super campy with shoddy visuals.
Still better than 95% of network tv these days. Just sayin’…make mine fun, make mine Marvel. Also, all hail the Whedon.
Hey, GIRLS can be fans, too, ya know.
At 7 seconds, this is not a teaser…it needs it’s own term. A ‘quickie’?
Was that Torpedo – one of Daredevil’s super baddies in that opening shot?

Most likely Luke Cage
I’m thinking it’s Luke Cage rescuing the woman at the start.
Cary – Current fan theory is that it is J August Richards (from Whedon’s ANGEL series) possibly playing Luke Cage.
FilmBuffRich,
I think you’re right, now that I’ve played it back in slo mo. Alas, the potential for this show is limitless (except on a episode to episode budget), Heroes for Hire, Marvel Knights, and maybe the Fearless Defenders could definitely work with the parameters of this show.
I see they shot some scenes at LA’s Union Station.

Only Hollywood would think, and succeed, in getting away with a ‘teaser’ like this.
Hell, I’ll check it for no other reason than to see Ming-Na Wen kick ass. She was so wasted on Stargate Universe and Eureka.
stargate universe: where a ton of great actors were wasted in space
aren’t they afraid they will saturate the air with “super heroes” and people will get sick of it – i’m already kinda bored with it and i was really a excited before.
Yeah ’cause there are so many TV shows with super-heroes in them.
Exactly what tv series on the ‘air’ has super heroes in them, smart ass?
I hardly classify either Arrow a ‘super hero’ show or the CW as a network on the ‘air’.
meh I’ll pass
D.R.O.O.L.
Now why can’t Star Trek and Star Wars do this too?
Wait, how is that guy alive? Didn’t he die in Avengers?
C’mon don’t you know your S.H.I.E.L.D lore?
LMDs
Life Model Decoys. Coulson was never killed in the Avengers movie. It was an android double.

Nerd TV. No thanks.
Wait, the ex-husband of Old Christine is the BADASS of this show? The Marvel Universe is insane.
I hope this is no indication of the show. Hate to say this, but Heroes Season 1 looked 100 times better than this.
That was nothing. Where was the trailer?
The only thing fresh here is ‘Lola’ Oh wait, Robert Ulrich did that as Dan Tanna in Vega$ on ABC (1978-81).
Nothing new to see here, people. Move along.
Dissing a show with an obscure Dan Tanna reference is the definition of lame.
I don’t know what people are complaining about. I wasn’t looking forward to this and now I am. I don’t think the visuals looked shoddy at all. It looks much cooler than I expected.
Snarky Deadline assholes, how lovely.
This looks good. Hope that’s not Luke Cage, though. Still a fan of the classic ’70s look (yellow shirt, metal headband, Afro, chains around his waist).
LOL @ non-comic fans asking how Coulson can be alive after he “died” in The Avengers. LMDs, people.
Between this and Almost Human on FOX, it looks like sci-fi and super-heroes are covered this season. The real question is how long can they sustain the quality beyond the pilot?
This trailer is so great, need to see more !
Either Coulson was close to death and SHIELD possesses technology that can repair even vital tissue, neurons (brain cells), etc. or the “Coulson” that Loki impaled in the Avengers was indeed an LMD, which Tony Stark joked about earlier in the film (perhaps a form of foreshadowing? We won’t know until it is explained how Coulson survived).
